Wilton High School inducted a new membership class of the school’s National Honor Society Tillinghast Chapter on Tuesday, Dec. 8. There were 65 juniors and 34 seniors inducted at the ceremony, held remotely over Zoom for the first time ever.
Admission to the National Honor Society is no easy feat. To be considered, students need a minimum 3.5 cumulative GPA; in addition to scholarship, upperclassmen are considered based on leadership, volunteer service, and character. Students are inducted twice during the school year, once in the fall and once in the spring.
Speakers at the online ceremony were Wilton Schools’ Superintendent Dr. Kevin Smith and WHS Principal Dr. Robert O’Donnell, as well as the current executive board of the NHS: Connor Allen, president; Nathan Wang, vice president; Catalina King, secretary; and Callie Judelson, treasurer. The advisor of the NHS is science teacher Sue Steadham.
Below the list of inductees, we’ve shared a video of the ceremony.
