HIES Students Tapped for National Honor Society
'Take the next step that speaks to your soul," NHS inductees told.
Being tapped for membership in the National Honor Society (NHS) is among the highest honors a high school student can receive. Membership is awarded only to those students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. And on March 5, 37 Holy Innocents’ Episcopal School students received that honor.
Megan Ernst ’11, now a senior Foundation Fellow at the University of Georgia (UGA) in Athens, returned to campus to speak with the NHS inductees. “You don’t have to plan out all the steps to get to your goal,” she told them. “That’s actually working backwards. You only have to take the right next step… the step that speaks to your soul.
“That will put you in the right place to go where you need to go.”
