Superintendent Pam Beaudoin, Principal Julie Sgroi and Dean of Students Elisabeth Drinkwater are pleased to share that 54 Manchester Essex High School students were recently inducted into the National Honor Society.
The induction ceremony took place on Dec. 7th in the MERMHS auditorium. 54 inductees from the junior and senior classes joined the current 37 members of the Masconomo Chapter of NHS.
Chapter President Finn O’Hara, Vice President and Leadership Officer Ella Chafe, Service Officer Kate Bappe, Character Officer Charles Virden, and Scholarship Officer Aiden Brown organized and led the ceremony.
MERHS Spanish Teacher and Soccer Coach Robbie Bilsbury made a speech reflecting on his past and his hopes for the future of the student scholars.
New members were then inducted by the Chapter Officers, who read quotes submitted by various MERHS staff to honor the inductees. Inductees recited the NHS Pledge and were presented with certificates.
MERHS French and Spanish Teacher Erin Fortunato was inducted as the honorary teacher inductee. She was chosen by the society to be recognized by students for her leadership in the classroom and guidance in student council.
“I would like to extend my congratulations to each of the newest inductees to the MERHS National Honor Society,” said Principal Sgroi. “These students have received this honor for their continued dedication to academics, development of leadership skills, and passion for helping others.
