Students Earn Recognition National Honor Society and Music Hon- or Society are two admired organizations at MHS. National Honor Society began in April 1929. It was for students who were at schol- arship level. Those who have a given grade level are also considered. To be chosen one must excell in scholarship, leadership, char- acter, and service. After reviewing these qua- lities, the faculty then voted on who should be chosen. Music Honor Society was formed for mu - sic talented students. It involves students who are outstanding in orchestra, band, and choir. Those who wished to join Music Honor Society were to audition in the spring. Re- sults were then posted. Students who wish to be chosen must have a C average in aca- demic subjects, and a B average in music. The important point of being accepted as a member of Music Honor Society is the recognition given to the students for excel- lence in individual performances. Nancy Stickle gives her speech for National H Society. Junior inducties listen carefully as they are told to repeat what is said.
