| The
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: Sean Rosen, Andrew Stone, Kyle Steelman, Ranon Caldwell, Derek LaHouse, Kevin Collins, Joshua Lorette, Delaney Sullivan, Piero Uribe, Mariano Mora, Melissa Leggo, Christopher Adamczyk, Ethan Jandreau, Suzanne Bertram, and Joshua Lamoureau.
