Honoring Excellence: O'Dea's NHS Chapter and the Brotherhood Assembly

by Campbell McNulty

The National Honor Society, a distinguished organization recognizing academic excellence, leadership, service, and character, is a sign of GPA inspiration for students committed to making a positive impact on their communities. NHS members engage in a range of activities that extend far beyond the realm of textbooks and exams. They brainstorm community service projects, mentor their peers, and orchestrate events that foster intellectual growth and community.

Recently, in November the NHS also hosted the Brotherhood Assembly which recognizes students' academic achievement. The club also awarded others for showing their character faith and service goes above and beyond. Awards for service hours and strong character were given along with honors awards for strong GPA.

Run by President Jack Huson and Marius Harvey this year's NHS is supposed to be better than ever. The club members follow the motto "Excellence: Our standard, your goal." You can join the club by applying in your sophomore year and you can join in junior year. This title of National Honor Society will stay with you through college showing your academic excellence.
