Inductees pictured (left to right):  Trinity Posey, Chazzidy Bradshaw, and Ja’Niyah Simelton (not pictured) along with Paris Blake, president.  The new members were inducted during a candle lighting ceremony on April 10th in the Cairo High School Library.  The National Honor Society is the highest academic organization and distinction that can be awarded to any Cairo High School student.  Students must have maintained a 3.5 cumulative average on or after a student’s fifth semester to be eligible for application into the high society.  

 

In addition, students must provide experience in leadership, community involvement, and school involvement through other extra-curricular organizations.  The National Honor Society has four elements from which the students are evaluated:  character, scholarship, leadership, and service.  Each element is equally important as each student is selected into this high society.  During the ceremony, the new members were pinned and a candle was lit to share the elements of National Honor Society with other students.  The new members are encouraged to demonstrate these elements in and out of school.
