of Gur Honors ng Seniors, Homecoming Royolfy . . . When the word honor is mentioned, people simultaneously think awards, recognition, and outstanding people. In Webster's dictionary honor is defined as recognition, an evidence or symbol of distinction, and an award in a contest or field of competition. Here at jHS we have many honors distributed each year to students. Honors that are awarded are Homecoming Royalty, Mr. and Miss jHS, Outstanding students, Twelve Outstanding Seniors, Girls' and Boys' State delegates, and Who's Who. For these awards students are selected in many different ways. The Homecoming Royalty is chosen by the football team. Mr. and Miss IHS are elected by the senior class and the results are announced at the yearbook assembly in May. The twelve outstanding seniors are also announced at the yearbook assembly, but they are selected by the faculty. The scholastic awards that are received by outstanding students in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades are made by the teachers in the respective subject fields. The selection of these stu- dents is handled by the student council who present certificates to them at a program in the spring. Girls' and Boys' state delegates are juniors who will be seniors in the upcoming year. A commit- tee of teachers selects these students. The Who's Who election honors forty-four students who were selected by the mem- bers of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. So look closely and catch a glimpse of our honor students of 1975-1976. H 0 n o rs 33 ia, -iffy .S
