Sixty-eight juniors and seniors from Poland Seminary High School were inducted into the National Honors Society at the NHS induction Ceremony. A candlelight ceremony was held on Wednesday evening, February 15th, 2017. The inductees were all admitted based on the qualities of character, scholarship, service and leadership. The newly inducted students displayed all the characteristics through many hours of community service. The students also were required to have a minimum grade point average of 3.5 to be considered for the honor of being inducted. These new inductees now will continue with their community service in order to make our town a better and more beautiful place.
