Kim Farley was the new National Honor Society spon- LPL sor starting the i984-85 school year and, for a beginner, she did an excellent job of supporting this distinguished organization. She was attracted to NHS because of the job wellfdone by Elaine Murphy as previous sponsor of NHS. Ms. Murphy and Mrs, Farley got acquainted during their lunch period and when Mrs, Farley learned that Ms. Murphy need' ed help with NHS she eagerly volunteered. Mrs. Farley credited her successful year as sponsor to Ms, Murphy for having the activities well' organized and the students and parents well dealt with. Mrs. Farley had this to say about working with NHS students: I enjoy working with NHS students very much. As the librarian Ihad con- tact with students only in a library set- ting. NHS allowed me to get to know some students on a more personal Michelle Wolff enior onor basis, Students stayed busy that year with many activities such as acting as guides for College Night, planning and conducting the initiation ceremonies for junior NHS members, and plan' ning and conducting the induction banquet on March 15. at the Fort Bend Country Club, Also, they helped with the U.l.L. district meeting on March 30 by acting as guides and timers and presented a teacher ap- preciation luncheon on April l2. NHS also made a trip to Palacios, Texas, on April 23, to attend a meeting of the Mid-Coast Association of National Honor Society Schools. And, last but not least, an activity that they plan- ned was to present a gift to the school from the money raised that year. But, of course, none of these ac- tivities could have been possible without the supplement of funds. So, the National Honor Society held many fund raisers to finance these projects. Wafiona ociefy . . Among these fund raisers were a memo cube sale in October, several bake sales throughout the year, and a work project for the CBR Printing Company in Houston. National Honor Society was an organization that took many years of educational endeavor to achieve. And it took a person of good character. One of the most important re- quirements was to have a grade point average of 3.7, but a person was not considered for NHS on this characteristic alone. Students were also rated by the faculty for their leadership, character, and service qualities. Then the faculty advisory committee of NHS screened those votes and made the final decision. Even though students cannot get any college credit for being in NHS, there were a number of scholarships made available through NHS which would aid in college expenses. Also, members learned more about the Susan Poncik Carmen Rosenberg Matthew Shulte Allison Stoeltje Sharon Sulak Quoc Hung Vu qualities that got them into the National Honor Society. Being a member of this organization also signaled any future employer or col- lege that one was a well-rounded stu- dent. Students who made NHS also felt a sense of accomplishment for setting high goals for themselves and obtaining them. Mrs. Farley would like to get the message to all freshmen that if they would like to make NHS, they must start working on it in their freshman year, Their grades and active par- ticipation in extracurricular activities is a building process. They cannot wait until their junior year to decide to work toward the goal of being admit- ted to NHS. The 1964-85 NHS officers were: President - Matthew Schulte, Vice- President - Sharon Sulak, Secretary - Stacy Douglas, Treasurer - Susan Poncik, and Parliamentarian - Amanda Peck, 49
