The Atlantic Christian School chapter of the National Junior Honor Society proudly welcomed seven new members at a ceremony held in the school gymnasium on Tuesday evening, March 12. Mrs. Sara Coates, faculty advisor for the ACS Honor Societies, and Mrs. Karen Oblen, Chief School Administrator, welcomed family members and guests and praised the hard work of the students being inducted. Current middle school Society members Tommy Ellison, Cruz Lewis, Reyna Lewis, Jada Logan, and Paige Noble spoke on the four principles of the NJHS – Service, Leadership, Character, and Scholarship.
Each new inductee then received a certificate, signed the official registry, and lit a votive candle signifying his or her membership in the Society. Pictured left-to-right above are Annia Pierre (8th), Tiana Purdy-Phillips (8th), Evangelina Kim (7th), Ryleigh Martin (7th), Zachary Fosbenner (7th), Jackson Gayeski (7th), and Ethan Haynes (7th).
