Members pledge to follow the four pillars of honor society: scholarship, responsibility, service and leadership. In addition, honor society members complete four service projects a year, attend monthly meetings and are leaders in their school. NEHS Faculty Advisor, Allison Watts, is proud to support what she believes is a great organization and a truly inspirational group of students. The combination of merit based recognition, academic excellence and student responsibility sets the bar high for these students and Nativity BVM School is exceptionally proud of their accomplish- ments.
