High Standards Show Excellence he National Honor Society once again kept its high standards of excellence, and this showed in many ways by projects undertaken by the '6 group. The annual Field Day was held in September at the Griesemer farm. The afternoon was spent playing volleyball, horseback riding and eating. The admis- sion Charged went towards the Charlie Donegan Scholarship Fund, as did the proceeds from the selling of camations later in the year. The event sponsored by NHS which was attended by the most students, however, was the Sweetheart Dance held on February 16th. Crowned as the Sweetheart King and Queen were Neil Tenbrook and Elizabeth Woolsey. Along with the king and queen, the court was also presented at the dance. Although the National Honor Society's purpose was to uphold its standards of character, scholarship, leadership, and service, it did so in ways that were fun and recreational. ! , W 3' v t'ialztz, , VAqutnu : 1i Jim Kutz offers a warm welcome to new members Scott and Michelle Rice following the induction ceremony.
