On Monday January 22nd, 153 students were honored at the National Honors Society induction ceremony. The National Honors Society, also known as NHS, is an organization that is sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals, or NASSP. One of the students inducted was Charlie Maxwell ‘19.

“It felt really good to be inducted,” said Maxwell. “I put a lot of work into getting good grades and trying to be a good student. It felt really nice to get recognition for my hard work.”

At the ceremony there were two keynote speakers, Mrs. Ali Borger-Germann and Dr. Michael Ayers.

“The speeches were very inspiring,” Maxwell said. “I really liked how [Mrs. Borger-Germann] talked about curiosity being her main motivation while trying to publish her book.”

After the ceremony many hugs were exchanged between the kids and their family members and many families went to the cafeteria for the post induction celebration.
