The National Honor Society is an active service organization for high school juniors and seniors. NHS promotes the values of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. Mrs. Gerringer and Mr. Evans are the sponsors of this club. 

All of the students that were inducted were chosen because of their high academic performance and exceptional character. These sophomores and juniors will join NHS next school year to help with service activities in the community. 

This year’s NHS induction ceremony, held on Thursday, April 7, was extra special because none of the current members had ever been a part of an in-person ceremony. 

2020 was the first virtual ceremony due to the fact that NHS inductions are a celebratory occasion, and we want to be able to share their accomplishments with everyone to congratulate them on their successes so far,” senior Sarah Dickson said, who is  NHS Communication Liaison. “The whole NHS organization for the past two years was inducted virtually, so none of the members there had actually seen a ceremony conducted.”

Blair Wise, a junior and an NHS member, explained that she wishes that her ceremony would have been in-person. “I wish I could have gotten to experience an in-person ceremony,” she said. “It was a lot better than the virtual one.

Hopefully, all of the future inductions will be in-person so the inductees get to experience a classic ceremony.
