Truman HS Inducts 19 National Honor Society Members

BRISTOL TOWNSHIP, PA — The Harry S. Truman High School chapter of the National Honor Society now has 19 new members.

Last week, school officials inducted 19 juniors and seniors.

“Tonight, we recognize not just academic excellence, but also the embodiment of character,
leadership, scholarship, and service that are the pillars of this organization,” Principal Jon Craig said.

Founded in 1921, NHS recognizes student achievement and excellence, serving more than one
million students across all 50 states.

Held in the high school’s Lou Volpe Auditorium, inductees participated in a candle-lighting
ceremony and recited the NHS pledge to be sworn in.

Craig and Elizabeth Gregory, teacher and faculty advisor, provided remarks to students and parents, and several new members spoke about the four pillars.

NHS officers for 2025-26 helped to plan and execute the ceremony. They included Nadia Mohli, Vice President Emir Ozturk, Secretary Audrey McGeachy, and Treasurer Payge Engle.
