Society receives new members vJ)verlays used Composed of dedicated and well-rounded students, the National Honor Society volunteered their time to tutor students who needed help in various subjects. The honor society’s main purpose was that of a service organization. Tutoring services, help at parent-teacher conferences, and the distribution of litter bags during Keep America Beautiful Week kept them busy. Selection into the National Honor Society was based on four areas: (I) scholarship, (2) leadership, (3) character, and (4) ser- vice. A B” average was also needed. Officers for the 1985-86 school year were president Rob Allison; vice-president Jeff Miller-, secretary Linda Cornett-, and treasurer Ajay Desai. At graduation this year. National Honor Society members were honored with overlays which bore the N.H.S. emblem. These overlays were a special gift from this year’s N.H.S. to future members so that members could be recognized at commencement.
