The induction ceremony featured novelist Elizabeth Norris, a young adult fiction author, as the keynote speaker. This year, Principal Harrington was selected as an honorary inductee to the NEHS.  

The annual Erin McArdle Memorial Scholarship was presented to senior co-president Masooma Kazmi for her dedication to the organization.
