An impressive 29 students at Southern Door High School were inducted into the National Honor Society during a ceremony held May 6, recognizing their achievements in scholarship, leadership, service and character.
Students selected for membership were chosen by a faculty council based on academic performance and involvement both in and out of the classroom.
Those inducted included Emiah DeFere, Troy Geisel, Kayla Johnson, Samantha Melville, Breleigh Paplham, Daylia Sund, Delaney Wilke, Amira Anschutz, Elloise Bloniarz, Mia Delcore, Lana Finger, Violet Jackson, Chelsie Jacquet, Adley LaVine, Keshawn Lezine, Isabella Martinez, Madeline Merkle, Addison Miller, Joel Moyer, Raymond Paye, Kennedy Pierre, Sophia Price, Octavia Severinsen, Kadince Shefchik, Kylee Starr, Quinn Sperber, Jesse Thorson, Nikaya Trusova and Colton Valley.
“We were lucky this year, we had a really strong group of applicants for our National Honors Society,” Southern Door High School math teacher Brandon Wautier said. “The 29 students inducted filled out a resume, submitted a comprehensive application, and wrote essays on the four pillars, which are scholarship, service, leadership and character.”
Wautier said the induction ceremony highlights the district’s dedication to developing well-rounded students prepared for future success.
The National Honor Society, founded in 1921, is one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious student organizations, with chapters in thousands of high schools nationwide. The Southern Door chapter is sponsored by Melissa Schley and Brandon Wautier.
