On Tuesday, February 27, 2024, the Littlefield Junior Honor Society inducted 21 new members. Selections were made based on outstanding scholarship, character, leadership, service, and citizenship. To be inducted, a student must have an average of 90 or above in their academic classes. Once selected, members have the responsibility to continue to demonstrate all of the qualities.
Eliseo Martinez, a current member of the L.J.H.S., opened the program with the Pledge of Allegiance, and then Craig Jennings, vice-president of the L.J.H.S., welcomed everyone. Superintendent Mike Read, spoke to the L.J.H.S. members and their families.
L.J.H.S. president, Piper Carr, explained that membership in this organization has been earned by the demonstration of the five qualities held in high esteem by the Society.
With a candle-lighting ceremony, the officers then gave the meaning of each quality and explained how the members are expected to use each in their lives. The officers include: president, Piper Carr; vice-president, Craig Jennings; secretary, Nia Cleveland; treasurer, Katharina Hill; and parliamentarian, Isaac Salazar.
After Piper led the inductees and the current members in the L. J. H. S. pledge, Monica Acevedo, Junior High Principal, presented each inductee with a certificate. The current members were then recognized.
Craig closed the ceremony. The new members include: Eighth Grade: Jazmin Almance, Alexander Almanza, Jonas Comacho, Bailee Griffin, Jayton Parchman, Samuel Saenz, and Zachary Trevino.
