Jarrett Gets Standing Ovation The National Honor Society Banquet was held on April 20, 1988. Each member was asked to bring a dish to serve buffet style. First everyone ate dinner, and then they handed out awards, starting with the Freshman Honors Award. Dianne Becker, Krista Piper, and Julie Taylor earned this award for maintaining straight A’s throughout their freshman year. Next came recognition for Mrs. Fran Jarrett, an English teacher at Byron High School for numerous years. Mrs. Jarrett received a standing ovation. Then the new NHS members were received into the society, escorted by old NHS members. The four officers spoke about the qualities NHS members have shown. Each new member received a certificate and was congratulated. Above: All the new N.H.S. members stand during the recognition ceremony held on the night of April 20, 1988.
