NHS Students Help Community Activities NHS provides the future for America, but so do bars. It depends on what kind of future you're talking about. commented Cynthia Scheisel, advisor of National Honor Society. There were a few requirements to be fulfilled if you wanted to be in Na- tional Honor Society. Students were required to have a 3.4 or better grade point average and be at least a sophomore. Students who were academically qualified were sent applications which were filled out and returned to Ms. Scheisel. The faculty then reviewed the applications and the students' records. They also looked for leadership, ser- vice and character. Faculty members then approved or disapproved each eligible student for National Honor Society membership. Palo Verde's National Honor Socie- ty Club was the most active in the Southwest. They met once a month on Monday. National Honor Society of- ficers were Patty Sarrels, presidentg Amy Wilson, vice presi- dentg Lori Bool, secretaryg Shelly Neal, treasurer. National Honor Society members helped out in the Special Olympics and did community services such as making Christmas stock- ings and collecting toys for the kids at Casa de los Ninos. The National Honor Society also worked for the Easter Seals Olympics. Fund raisers were also in- cluded in the program to raise money for scholar- ships. Summing up the general idea of NHS, Tammy Grossheim said, NHS is a great experience. We have a lot of fun together and are doing things that are worth- while and helpful. 9 112 Organizations ,ggi
