Wlfgvw. Thats hovv They became the Brainy Bunch Did all the studying and hard work to achieve high grades really make a difference? Well, if you wanted to be a member of the National Honor Society, it certainly did. Although high grades were not the only criteria for admis- sion into the organization, they were important. This group of specially selected seniors were girls who not only possessed fine characteristics such as scholarship and leadership, but also offered their time and talents to both school and local communities. One responsibility of NHS was to sponsor school assem- blies every month. ln November, Sr. Julia McNamara, President of Albertus Magnus College, spoke on the impoi - tance of learning a foreign language. At another assembly, students heard Paul Galano from Covenant House in New York relate stories of his work with runaway teen-agers. The school also enjoyed a presentation of Chekhov's plays performed by the Renaissance Theatre Company. The National Honor Society sponsored a special candy drive before exams, and donated the proceeds to charity. ln addition, NHS members taught classes on Teacher Ap- preciation Day. Many members also volunteered to tutor students who had difficulties in academic subjects. Vice-president Joanne Anastasiadou commented, We had fun and enjoyed being with each other. Giving to others, ' wowledge or otherwise was so important. l was happy to be a part of it all.
