The Tidewater Chapter of the National Honor Society (NHS) has announced that new members have been appointed to the organization for 2021. St. Michaels High School adapted their unique “Tapping Ceremony” to a drive-by, socially distanced version since not all of the students were attending school in person.
NHS is a national organization established in 1921, which serves to recognize students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. Eligibility is open to juniors and seniors with a 3.2 GPA and 75 service learning hours completed. Those students receive an application to submit, and it goes before a Staff Review Committee comprised of teachers, club advisors, and coaches to review and select students. Selection is based on the 4 NHS Principles: Character, Leadership, Service, and Scholarship.
Mr. JR Burkhardt, Guidance Counselor serves as St. Michaels High School’s National Honor Society Faculty Advisor.
The 2021 St. Michaels High School NHS inductees are as follows:
Class of 2021 (admitted as seniors)
Armonie Cooper, Ashton Hammon, Cade Jones, Kaitlyn Lyons, Ashley Mihalis, Andre Setter, Ashleigh Wojcik
Class of 2022 (admitted as juniors)
Julie Bridges, Avery Brown, Kiara Brummell, Fiona Cooper, Matt Gostomski, Kellen Lambert, Sutton Mesko, Emily Middleton, Macy Motovidlak, Teegan Murphy, PJ Papineau, Ava Reid, Margaret Ristvey, Haley Sadler, Edward Schaefer, Stevie Shaak, Josh Sherwood, Conner Windsor
“I am extremely proud of these students for their work both in and out of the classroom, especially during these challenging times,” said Mrs. Theresa Vener, Principal. “I congratulate them all on this outstanding accomplishment.”
