Congratulations to them... “IT pledge myself to uphold By work and by deed The high purpose of this society To make its ideals To which I have been elected The ideals of my school Striving in every way And my life” These are the words held dear by each newly-elected member of the National Honor Society as he repeats this pledge at the initiation. From the time a boy or girl enters the Freshman year in high school until graduation, every thought, word and deed performed may or may not help him in being elected to this highest position—a member of the National Honor Society. A student is secretly elected to this Society by the faculty during the latter part of his senior year. Character, scholarship, leadership, and service are the.four points to be consid- ered when selecting each person. On March 24, 1955, the annual assembly was held in which thirty-three names of Sen- iors were announced. Character, scholarship, leadership, and service were discussed by four members of the National Honor Society of 1954. Mr. Robert Morrison, guest speaker, spoke on “What Makes A Good Leader.” This is truly the highest honor that can come to a Senior and it is always held in high esteem by those who are members of the National Honor Society.
