Students inducted into the National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) must maintain a 3.67 GPA, demonstrate excellent character, be involved in volunteer work and other activities.

The NJHS held their induction ceremony Feb. 18 at Ring Lardner Middle School.

In the past year the members of NJHS have collected more than 150 bags of trash along through the Adopt-A-Highway program on U.S. Highway 31 between Mathew and Range Line roads.

Students ran a binder collection at the end of last school year where hundreds of binders were obtained. They were able to find all the binders a new home to students who needed them for this school year.

Haiti has taught the NJHS to fully appreciate life and students have learned to give generously and not just from abundance.

These students will continue to volunteer their time and become strong leaders in their schools and community.
