Additionally, probationary members were recognized during the ceremony. This year’s probationary members are Christopher Pedersen and Travis Swartz. These students must maintain their grades in order to be eligible for membership next year.
Jennifer Lander and Noah Burke served as freshmen hosts for the evening.
During the ceremony, NHS members spoke about their service projects. The projects included cleaning up local cemeteries, a drive in support of animal shelters, a toy donation effort and individual litter pickups. As an organization, the students host a blood drive and conduct their own litter pickup.
