Erika - Inducted into National Honor Society


Erika applied to be in the National Honor Society at Provo High.  She was sent an invitation to the Induction Ceremony, so that meant that she was accepted into the membership.  There are about 100 students involved in the club.  She has been wanting to join a club to get more familiar with different people and get some activities that might help her for a scholarship to BYU.  The members of NHS have to earn 2.5 credits per year, participate in Leadership activities, do 15 hours of community service and do 5 hours of Individual Service hours.  Erika signed up to do Valentines cards for the Elderly & Care centers and help with the Sub for Santa.  Many of her friends also were inducted tonight. (Karen, Peggy, Rachel, etc, etc, etc...)  To top it all off tonight, Erika has been very sick.  She came home from school today feeling hot and cold and had a upset stomach.  She also has a sore throat, cough and sinus cold.  She was determined to go to the NHS induction tonight, but she wasn't feeling well at all, so we didn't stay long.  Hopefully she doesn't have the swine flu or bronchitis, like her friend, Heather.  We are so proud of Erika for wanting to do extra cirricular activities and joining the NHS Club.
