The Rye High School chapter of the National Honor Society (NHS) welcomed 168 new members at a candle lighting ceremony at the High School Performing Arts Center on October 27.
The RHS National Honor Society requires students to have a cumulative average of 90 and perform a minimum of 75 volunteer hours to be eligible for membership. The Rye High School faculty nominated students who they believe embody the NHS ideals to light the candles: Vanessa Lahrkamp for scholarship, Rafay Syed for leadership, Hadley Bernardi for service, and Daniel Roberts for character. The students lit candles to represent each of these qualities, and all joined in repeating the pledge of induction.
