Tonight, many Robinson upperclassmen were inducted into the National Honor Society. By joining the society, these students are recognized as student leaders in the four fundamental NHS pillars: scholarship, leadership, character and service.

Now being student leaders, many inductees strive to exemplify these principles.

“I applied to be a part of NHS so I could not only hold the title of a member but hopefully lead my peers as well. I aspire to be an example of the benefits of hard work and passion in my subjects,” newly inducted NHS member Savannah Lax (’24) said.

Joining such a well-established society which is said to be “the standard for student excellence,” not only tends to get members to exhibit these same standards but creates a sense of community.

“I thought it [being inducted] was really cool because it felt like I was a part of a bigger thing,” newly inducted member Campbell Moore (’24) said. “NHS is a national organization, so I felt like I was connected to people across the nation.”

Having been around for over 100 years, induction to NHS carries a lot of meaning for new members.

“To me, NHS is a privilege and honor to be in,” Lax said. “It’s a demonstration of hard work and dedication to my studies and school.”
