Seven high school students from the Town of Webb School were inducted as new members of the Hadarondah Chapter of the National Honor Society in a ceremony held on Tuesday, October 30 in the school gymnasium.
The new members were selected for meeting high standards of scholarship, service, leadership, citizenship, and character. They are joining the existing membership of eighteen students.
“We are very proud to recognize these outstanding members of our student body,” said Kandis Griffin, the chapter advisor. We look to the new inductees to become involved and to continue to demonstrate the outstanding qualities that resulted in their selection.”
Following remarks by Superintendent Rex Germer and a candle ceremony conducted by members of National Honor Society, Griffin called the new inductees forward.
One by one, they were helped on with their robes, then mounted the stage to a round of applause from family, friends and fellow students.
The new inductees are: Allyson Brosemer, Brianna Brownsell, Mackenzie Kelly, Tyler McGough, William Johnson, Danielle Gibbs and Melissa Murphy.
The National Honor Society (NHS) ranks as one of the oldest and most prestigious national organizations for students.
Chapters exist in more than 6,000 schools and since 1929, millions of students have been selected for membership.
It is sponsored nationally by the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP).
Each year the local Hadarondah Chapter sponsors several service projects for the school and the community.
