Students light their way to NHS

On March 26, around 80 students will walk up to the stage in a candlelit auditorium to be inducted into National Honor Society. The sponsor, Donna Malkmus, will be calling the names of the students to come up and receive a certificate for induction.

“Everyone looks nice and they’re all dressed up to take pictures,” Malkmus said.

The students will be called up alphabetically. After students are called they wait until the ceremony is over to get up and file out. All the students who are inducted have to work hard to get inducted.

“Students must have a 3.75 cumulative G.P.A. and have turned in the application on time in order to be inducted,” Malkmus said.

All students who fit the requirements are inducted. Most students feel that it is an honor to be inducted. Helping people is their main focus. Sophomore Kaitlyn Schikore feels it is a great opportunity to be able to join. And she is joining this year.

“I’m excited,” Schikore said.

The opportunities available are a chance to help people and earn honor chords to wear on your robes for graduation. To earn honor chords students have to fit the requirements made by Malkmus and the elected officers of NHS.

“The students have to get community service points,” Malkmus said. “Students also need to attend required meetings at the first and third week of the month.”

Usually only two-thirds of students get honor chords, but the number grows every year.

NHS works with Variety, St.Louis Children’s Charity, St.Charles and St.Peters Parks and Recreation, along with Henderson Elementary just up the road. NHS believes they do a great job of helping the community and most enjoy it very much.
