These new inductees will be a part of an organization of incredibly impressive alumni. All new members received a certificate and their membership cards. Mrs. Jyoti Vasishta, the NHS advisor, stated in her introduction speech: “Our chapter is proud to have been inducting new members since 1963, and today’s ceremony indicates the continuing emphasis on excellence that we represent for our school and community”.

Mr. Kenneth Knesh, Warren County High School’s principal, delivered an inspirational speech to students and parents in the closing:  “Tonight you join judges, lawyers, teachers, military officers, Ivy League graduates, and yes, even a current rocket scientist at NASA as members of our NHS fraternity. Now your name will be among those distinguished alumni who proudly call Warren County High School their alma mater. They went on to do great things, and we believe that you are destined to join them in helping to shape the world we live in and become future leaders of this great country of ours. Be bold, be brave, and be the light of someone’s world”.

President Audrey Moya Machuca, Vice-President Arthur Kresge, Secretary Olivia Yates, Treasurer Mason Polk, and Historian Sara Waller explained the four pillars of the National Honor Society to the new members.
