Goshen students inducted into National Honor Society

GOSHEN — Goshen High School students were inducted Oct. 22 into the Goshen High School chapter of the National Honor Society.

The new inductees joined current National Honor Society members at the induction ceremony, held in the Goshen High School auditorium, which recognized their high academic achievement, commitment and involvement in extracurricular activities, community service achievements and high level of character.

National Honor Society President Michael Sager, Vice-President Julia Sullivan, Secretary Megha Kanabar and Treasurer Michael Dunkelman led the Candle Lighting Ceremony that recognizes the four traits of an inductee: leadership, scholarship, service and character. Each inductee signed the National Honor Society Scroll and were administered the National Honor Society Pledge by their principal.

The National Honor Society distinguishes, honors, and encourages students who excel at their general education studies and who possess admirable character, attitude and a strong intellect. The students inducted have maintained a 92 percent average or better for their high school career, completed a minimum of 60 hours of community service, and are involved in their school community through athletics, clubs or other extra-curricular activities.

This year’s National Honor Society advisors are Tricia Brown and Amy Quinn.
