National Honor Society (NHS) is the nation's premier organization
established to recognize outstanding high school students. More
than an honor roll, the NHS serves to honor those students who have
demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership,
service, and character. These characteristics have been associated
with membership in the organization since its beginning in 1921.
NHS members: Andrew Jaconetta, Christopher Roggi, Kevin Wagner, Kenneth Barto, Steven Jones, Jessica Merritt, Jason Boyne, Matthew Panecki, Augustus Marinak, Zabihullah Mamun, David Digiovanni, (Weston Ley, and Jacob Merritt not in photo).
