KHS National Honor Society

17 inducted into KHS National Honor Society Chapter

Knoxville — Congratulations to Ben Reichert, Madison Chrisman, and Gerritt Davis,  members of the of the Knoxville HIgh School Chapter of the National Honor Society.
Chapter Sponsor Matt Heston told a crowd gathered at the Knoxville Performing Arts Center last night that this is the 84th year of the NHS being a part of Knoxville. Students are chosen for the society based upon scholarship, leadership, character and citizenship.
To be considered, a student must have a 3.25 cumulative grade point average. There were 58 students eligible at KHS based upon this statistic.
Students are then asked to write an essay and KHS faculty have input into the final selection of new members. Heston told the new members that this is a high honor, one that will open doors for them in the next few years.
