The National Honor Society is a national organization somewhat comparable to Phi Beta Kappa in colleges and universities, Its colors are blue and gold, and its emblem is the keystone and the flaming torch. The four cardinal principles upon which election to the society is based are Character, Scholarship, Service, and Leadership. In scholarship a student must be in the upper third of his class. Not more than fifteen per cent of the graduating class may be elected, and not more than five per cent of the junior class. Members of the society are voted upon by the faculty after careful consideration has been given to their records both for scholarship and citizenship throughout their years in high school. The Ironwood chapter of the National Honor Society, Number 110, was organized in 1922, with eleven charter members. To date a total of 333 boys and 500 girls have been selected for membership from the Luther L.Wright High School.
