The members have lived exemplary lives within the school and continue to he motivated by the challenging ideals of the Society. On the second Monday of the month, the National Honor Society meets with Mrs. Wells, the advisor. period two in the sewing room. They discuss future plans and projects that would render service to school and community. The induction ceremony was certainly a memorable event. As the lighted candle of knowledge luminously flickered, the master of ceremonies and the officers spoke of the ideals and principles of the National Honor Society. The climax of the evening was the recitation of the pledge as each new member held his lighted candle. Afterwards there was entertainment with musical selections performed by some of the members. Unfortunately, such academic accomplishments are sometimes overshadowed by the other extracurricular activities. The National Honor Society represents the championship of a school's most primary purpose—education. 22
