McNicholas inducts 41 National Honor Society Members

McNicholas inducts 41 National Honor Society Members

McNicholas High School celebrated students achieving their academic best by inducting 41 new members into the Altiora Chapter of National Honor Society on Thursday, March 27. 

The National Honor Society recognizes the achievements of junior and senior students who excel academically and fill leadership roles in the school and community. Students must maintain a 90 average and must submit to an application process that assesses a student's scholarship, leadership, character, and commitment to service. 

"We are incredibly proud of our new National Honor Society inductees into the McNicholas Altiora Chapter," National Honor Society Moderator Mr. Dan Freeman said. 

NHS members tutor students in the McNicholas community and complete service projects that benefit the community beyond McNicholas. 

"These exceptional students have demonstrated excellence in the four pillars of NHS: Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character," Mr. Freeman added. "We are confident these inductees will continue to uphold these values while serving our Society, school, and community with distinction." 

Senior officers Julia Cheek, Katie Claes, Justin Smith, and Olivia Stein along with co-advisors Mr. Dan Freeman and Mrs. Laura Rupp proudly welcome these 41 new members: 

Katherine Baillie, Julia Bayer, Lauren Beiser, Sean Bursk, Mia Colonna, Natalie Cox, Ayla Dickerson, Ryan Dorr, Olivia Dorschug, Brady Edwards, Amelia Engle, Annika Flynn, Josephine Fortin, Caroline Frede, Ava Gerome, Clare Goldbach, Allison Hannah, Ava Hudson, Sarah Hutchinson, Carter Kent, Caleb Link, Margaret Martin, Grace Mastruserio, Grace McCafferty, Michael Mindrum, Kathryn Moran, Ryan Moss, Caleb Naumann, Brian Parks, Lauren Radtke, Delaney Rains, Emma Rosenbaum, Allison Runte, Lillian Ruschman, Addison Russo, Hayden Shelly, Nicholas Spiegla, Lucinda Thompson, Kaelin Timko, Kennedy Trapp, Annemarie Wolfer

    Where Art Comes Alive: McNicholas Students Explore Italy, France, and Belgium

    Some of life's greatest lessons cannot be found in a textbook. They are discovered standing beneath the ancient arches of the Colosseum, gazing up at masterpieces in Vatican City, or watching the sun set along the Seine River. This spring, 43 McNicholas students experienced those moments firsthand, returning home with a deeper appreciation for art, history, culture, and the world around them.

    A Friendship Without Borders: McNicholas Celebrates Its First Sister School Exchange with Argentina

    Nine McNicholas students traveled to Buenos Aires this summer for the school's first Sister School Exchange with Instituto Nuestra Señora de Las Nieves, building on friendships formed when Argentine students visited McNicholas earlier this year. Through living with host families, attending classes, and experiencing Argentina's rich culture and history, students discovered that the most meaningful lessons come from stepping beyond their comfort zones and embracing connections that transcend borders.
