The teams were either made up by the students or I assigned them a team. The National Junior Honor Society members participate in at least one philanthropic project per quarter. The projects vary from year to year depending upon the interests of the students. 8 th graders inducted into membership second semester form our core membership for the following year. We also accept into membership any student who has been a member in good standing in another chapter and transfers to North.
Ninth graders are unable to participate because they are in class at that time.
We hold three to four Chess Tournaments and give awards to the overall winners at the end of the year. We encourage anyone to come in and learn to play. There are several new ideas this year at North that we wanted you to know about. You may not know it, but dances are one of the important ways for the student council to make money, as well as promote school unity and offer some fun for the students. This means five dances for the price of four at the reduced rate.
