GALION – The Galion High School inducted 12 new members into its National Honor Society on Monday.

“National Honor Society members are some of our best and brightest students,” said National Honor Society co-advisor Julie Hoffman. “Membership in this group represents a student’s commitment to academics, service, leadership and character, and membership in this organization should be a goal of all students.”

This year’s inductees include: Sari Conner, Alexandria Eckert, Wyatt Enders, Kiersten Gifford, Kaylyn Gimbel, Gabrielle Kaple, Clay Karnes, Jalyn Oswald, Danielle Schneider, Colten Skaggs (Senior), Maranna White (Senior) and Elizabeth Wolf.

They joined current members Alexandria Awbrey (Secretary), Elise Barnhart, Allison Bauer, Cheyenne Blair, Chase Castline, Allison DeNero, Josielyn Ehrman, Erica Eidt, Luke Eisnaugle, Tyler Harris, Teresa House (Vice President), Claire Miller, Ashlie Sallee (President), Marissa Snyder and Briana Streib (Treasurer).

“While academics are certainly an important component of membership, community service, leadership and strong character set these students apart,” said Galion high school Principal Ron Williams. “Being inducted into National Honor Society is their reward for all of their efforts throughout high school. It is a great honor.”
