Superintendent Dr. Coy Holcombe wrote: “I would like to congratulate the returning members and the new inductees for their hard work and accomplishments. In order to be considered for NHS, a student must exhibit the qualities of leadership, character, and service. Members must also have an 85 cumulative average and be a sophomore, junior, or senior. I want to extend a special recognition to all of the NHS seniors. Your hard work and leadership at NHS over these last four years is greatly appreciated.”
