[Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Would you please rise for the national anthem performed
009by Ava Peragan followed by the pledge of allegiance. Oh, say can you see by the dawn early light? What so proudly we hailed at the twilight last gleaming whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight or the ramp parts we watched were So gallantly streaming and the rockets red glare. The bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star spangled ber yet away? Or the land of the free and the home of the brave. [Applause] I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Please be seated. Ian Dieslack and Hannah McAffrey will now share the history of the National Honor
010Society and the National Junior Honor Society. In 1921, the National Association of Secondary School Principles officially established the National Honor Society with the hope of creating an organization that would recognize and encourage academic achievement while developing other characteristics essential to citizens in a democracy. Though many local and regional honor societies existed prior to 1921, no nationwide organization had been founded. It was under the leadership of one man, Dr. Edward Rinerson, a high school principal in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that the National Honor Society evolved from one to 10,000 chapters by 1930. Equipped with a constitution, an emblem and motto, and a group of dedicated principles as coordinators, the new National Honor Society quickly developed into one of the country's leading educational organizations. In 1929, the National Association of Secondary School Principles turned its attention to middle level
011schools and expanded its scope for recognizing outstanding students by establishing the National Junior Honor Society. With its own constitution, the National Junior Honor Society has established criteria that parallel the values found in the original organization and has likewise challenged its chapters to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership, and to develop character in the students of secondary schools. Ava Balderas and Caitlyn Burns will now share the values and significance of the National Honor Society and the National Junior Honor Society for students today. The National Honor Society and the National Junior Honors Society remain the nation's premier organizations established to recognize outstanding high school and middle school level students. More than just an honor role, the National Honor Society and the National Junior Honor Society serve to honor those
012students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. In addition, the National Junior Honor Society holds the quality of citizenship among its core values. While these characteristics have been associated with membership in the organizations since their beginnings in 1921 and 1929, they still maintain relevance in today's society. Now, more than 80 years later, emphasis on these characteristics continues to make membership both an honor and a commitment for [Applause] students. Today, it is estimated that more than 1 million students participate in activities of the National Honor Society and the National Junior Honor Society. Thousands of honor society chapters are found in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, many US territories, and Canada. Chapter membership not only recognizes students for their accomplishments, but challenges them to develop further through
013active involvement in school activities and community service. Membership not only calls students to demonstrate academic achievement and leadership, but also to exhibit an honorable, admirable character that proves members are willing to use talents and skills for the improvement of their society. Clara Crandle will now perform a musical selection. [Music] [Applause] [Music] I know there's some somewhere someone who's sure to find me soon. After the rain goes, there are [Music] rainbows. I'll find my rainbow [Music] soon. Soon it won't be just pretend. Son love. Can you hear me? If you're living, sing your song. Sure and strong and soon. [Music] President Hong Tran will now explain leadership. Leaders should exert a positive influence on the school. In taking the initiative in class and school activities, the real leader strives to train and aid others to attain
014the same objective. The price of leadership is sacrifice. the willingness to yield one's personal interest for the interest of others. A leader has self-confidence and will go forward when others hesitate. No matter what power and resources may exist in a country, they are meaningless without the guidance of a wise leader. Leadership is always needed. Thus, to lead is an essential task for each of our members. [Applause] Scholarship will be explained by Vice President Abigail Wall Scholarship. Scholarship means a commitment to learning. A student is willing to spend hours in reading and study knowing the lasting benefits of a cultivated mind. We should continue to learn even when formal education has ended. For education ends only with life. Knowledge is one great element in life which leads to the highest success and it can be acquired
015in only one way through diligence and effort. Learning furnishes the lamp by which we read the past and the light which illuminates the future. Candidates have the charge to continually expand their world through the opportunities inherit in scholarship. Service will be explained by Secretary Riley Tulan. Service. Service can be described in various ways. In the routines day work, many opportunities arise to help others. Willingness to work for the benefit of those in need without monetary compensation or without recognition is the quality we seek in our membership. We are committed to the idea of volunteering our time and the abilities to the creation of a better tomorrow for our school, our community, and our world. Treasurer Ava Paragan will now discuss character. character. Character is the force within each individual which distinguishes that person from others.
016It gives one individuality. It is that without which no one can respect oneself nor hope to attain the respect of others. It is this force of character which guides one through life and when once developed grows steadily. Character is achieved and not received. It is the product of constant action daily striving to make the right choice. The problem of character is the problem of self-control. We must be in reality what we wish to appear to others. By demonstrating such qualities as reliability, honesty, and sincerity, we may hope to prove by example that we value character. President Hong Tran will now lead the members and inductees in the pledge of the National Honor Society. All members and inductees, please stand. Raise your right hand and repeat after me. I pledge myself to uphold I pledge myself
017to uphold the high purposes of the National Honor Society the high purposes of the National Honor Society to which I have been selected to which I have been selected I will be true to the principles for which it stand I will be true to the principles for which it stands I will be loyal to Carbondale Area High School I will be loyal to Carbondale Area High School and I will maintain and encourage high standards and I will maintain and encourage high standards of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. of scholarship, service, leadership, and character.
