NHS

Have you ever wondered what National Honor Society is? I have always wondered. I did some asking around and found out what it was. "NHS is for students who demonstrate outstanding qualities of scholarship, character, leadership, and service," said Mrs. Schiefelbein. This year NHS elected new officers, the new officers are Kjirstin Almos- President, Adam DesEnfant- Vice President, Maria Konald- Treasurer, and Ashley McCormick- Secretary. In order to become a member of National Honor Society you have to have a 3.5 grade point average, and be involved in other activities in school. "It gives us a chance to recognize, not only good student that are active in school and the community, but student that are maintaining good grades." said Schiefelbein. NHS does a lot of activities in school and the community. Some of the things they do for the community are: they go bowl with residents at the Good Samaritan Center, and help serve cake at the Veteran Day Program. Some things NHS does for the school are: bring tables for the court yard, and help with pumpkin carving. NHS also had a float in the homecoming parade last year. Once a month they have a meeting and talk about projects that are coming up, and they also write down the services the members have done that month.
