Michigan—Two new members were inducted into the National Honor Society (NHS) on Nov. 16, 2007. Current NHS members at Battle Creek Academy (BCA) joined new members, Hee Jin Lee (a junior) and Jin Park (a senior), for this special Induction Ceremony.

More than just an honor roll, the NHS serves to honor those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service and character. After being recommended for NHS membership by school faculty and all membership requirements are met by the student, the Induction Ceremony officially welcomes students into this elite society.

With induction into NHS, a member assumes certain obligations as outlined by the local chapter. First and foremost, all NHS members are expected to maintain the standards that were used as the basis for their selection. In addition, the chapter must conduct a service project for the school each year, and see to the development of an individual service project for each member.

By being a member of the NHS, students are recognized locally and nationally, and scholarship opportunities are available based on members' leadership and academic achievements.

Congratulations to all NHS members at BCA. We look forward to following your continued success.

Wendy Keough, co-director of marketing and recruitment, Battle Creek Academy
