Quill and Scroll Charters 31 Members Vismaiwici B Members are initiated by Thomas Jefferson students into the newly established George Wythe chapter of the Quill and Scroll. 124 Quill and Scroll is an international honor society for high school journalists. It was founded April 10, 1926, by a group of high school advisers for the pur- pose of “rewarding and encouraging individual achievement in journalism and creative writing.” Having met the requirements, George Wythe re- ceived its charter on April 26, 1961, when 31 charter members were initiated. Each member must be a jun- ior or senior in the up per third of his class, must do superior work in some phase of journalism in school publications, must be recommended by the faculty ad- viser, and approved by the Executive Secretary of the Society.

Honor Society Taps 23 Students Twenty-three juniors and seniors became charter members of the Oscar W. Fary Chapter of the Na- tional Honor Society, named in honor of the first principal of George Wythe. These students were chosen on the basis of high scholarship, constructive leadership, purposeful service, and worthy character. The National Honor Society of Secondary Schools was founded by the National Association of Second- ary-School Principals in 1921. Today, there are over 8,500 chapters in the United States whose immediate objective has become that of raising the secondary schools to a higher plane. The society encourages the exploration and development of qualities of scholar- ship and leadership in students. Students are tapped for membership in the Oscar W. Fary Chapter of the National Honor Society by Sue Sale of the John Marshall Chapter. 125
