Far Above the Crowd The administration added an or- ganization of high recognition to the school system this year. The National Honor Society began last fall with the first induction of members in December. To become a member of this elite group, a student must meet requirements agreed upon by a council of teachers. Grades are the utmost priority in choosing members. After this is met, the student must be a good citizen and submit a list of activities both in and out of school. As soon as all the requirements are met, all teachers review all the informa- tion concerning the student and make the final decision. If the stu- dent had all the necessary funda- mental, he or she was inducted at the nest ceremony. At the close of the year another ceremony was held at which sev- eral more seniors as well as ju- niors were inducted. SENIOR members of the National Honor Soci- ety.
