Seaford MS Inducts 57 Into National Junior Honor Society

School sees upward trend in students achieving prestigious honor

Fifty-seven Seaford Middle School students with strong academic and civic promise were inducted in National Junior Honor Society. The number reflects an upward trend in membership in recent years, from 24 in 2011 to 46 last year.

“Induction into National Junior Honor Society defines students as hardworking, dedicated learners who are committed to their school and community,” said Seaford Schools Superintendent Brian Conboy. “This is one milestone in what is sure to be many in the lives of these outstanding students.”

Those selected for membership must have a grade-point average of 90 or above and possess scholarship, service leadership, character and citizenship. As members, each student is required to complete six or more service hours per month while maintaining a 90+ average.
