Honeoye Falls-Lima High School honored its latest group of inductees into the school’s National Honor Society chapter during a ceremony on January 28 at the high school auditorium.
The 61 inductees joined an existing group of 50 members. After an introduction by co-advisor Mrs. Nicole Glavin and welcoming remarks by NHS President Michael Ruff, four officers from the NHS gave short speeches about the different aspects of NHS. Secretary Maeve Connors spoke about character, Vice President/Academics Lucinda Neff spoke about scholarship, Vice President/Service Natalie Gilbert spoke about service and Treasurer Samuel Jokl spoke about leadership.
Mr. Andrew Corey, a biology teacher at the high school, was the keynote speaker this year.
After the keynote speech, the new members were introduced by Ruff and Neff and asked to come to the front of the stage where they signed the school’s NHS book and received their certificates and congratulations. The new members are Ryleigh Abell, Ariana Alguire, Maren Allen, Abram Armes, Collin Bailey, Raegan Banker, Linden Bellizzi, Jason Bennett, Amy Bianchi, Addison Boggio, Wilson Bond, Lillian Carey, Louden Cates, Jonathan Clark, Nathan Conrad, Peterah Deisenroth, Grace Elliott, Grayson Etter, Brian Fanning, Emily Fay,

After the new members had been inducted, they recited the NHS oath following the lead of Ruff. There were concluding remarks and parents were invited to take photos of their student. Some of them, however, had to rush off due to playing in the home boys basketball game against Eastridge while others were on their way to rehearsal for the school musical.
