In the National Honors Society (NHS), taking the induction ceremony is paramount for becoming a member. The advisor of the club, Briana Siwicki, is managing the ceremony this year, helping guide the current president to run it as well, alongside NHS itself. All the people accepted into NHS have to do the ceremony on top of other requirements needed in the club.  

 While not having been in Stevenson High School for so long, Siwicki has a certain passion for the club, but especially the ceremony. The ceremony is Nov. 18, in the auditorium at 7 p.m.  

“Induction is a night to honor the new inductees,” Siwicki said. “They need to sign the book and recite the pledge.” 

Siwicki finds that the NHS recognizes students who want to better themselves. 

 “NHS encourages leadership, service, personal growth, and community impact,” Siwicki said. 

Being the current president of NHS, Lillian Kulczycki ‘26 helps run NHS along with Siwicki. She describes the ceremony as a swear-in, where you follow the rules and guidelines that are set. Having already been through this event, Kulczycki, with her experience, will help others do the ceremony. 

“I will be pledging others, and I will be accepting other kids,” Kulczycki said. “As well as running the event.” 

Being a part of NHS for the second year in a row, Ava Wingfield ‘26, speaks about her own experience of doing the ceremony and how she felt. 

 “I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, but it turned out to be really cool,” Wingfield said. 

Overall, Wingfield claims the event as a finishing feeling towards being in the club. 

 “It felt really rewarding because you get to sign your name in the NHS book,” Wingfield said. “So, you were like, physically inducted into the program.”
