May 2, 1956 marked one of the most memorable lirsts for seventeen seniors of the graduating class. On that day, a special assembly was called for the purpose of pinning Bethpage's first Honor Society. Unknown to these students, invitations had been sent to their parents, asking them not to breathe a word about the whole altair. Mrs. Marian Celenza inaugurated the ceremony, informing the audience what the program was all about. Mr. William Schultheis then explained the meaning of the society, and why these particular seventeen were chosen. As their names were called out, the students stepped to the stage, had their society pins put on by Mrs. Celenza, and then received their scroll of membership in the society from Mr. Vincent Parlato. One by one the boys and girls took a candle from a receptacle and formed a line at the back of the stage, To symbolize their acceptance of membership, they recited the Honor Society pledge and then lit the candles, until all stood with a lighted symbol of knowledge. Members in the society were selected through voting sessions held by the faculty, according to the con- stitution of the Honor Society. The requirements needed included: scholarship-an average of 8504: or better for three and one half years, service-rendering real aid to the school and fellow students, leadership-being a leader in all things, always with the highest morals and standards, character-having outstanding character traits, beyond reproach at all times.
