The NJHS program is a major program in the junior high school of Sacred Heart. The students strive to make it to membership in NJHS and achieve their goals in order to prepare for high school and to continue that excellence. Mrs. Hill is the advisor for the program and feels very strongly about the program’s importance and emphasizes that she strives to make sure these students are prepared for the future and really emphasizes to them what the organization means and how important it truly is. This year the new NJHS group has added assisting the Parish with the Thanksgiving Dinner to their service.
The induction ceremony takes place at the same time as the NHS group all at once. Mrs. Hill explains that she is super excited for this upcoming group and strives to encourage her students with the right mindsets and manners to carry them on to high school. The NJHS program really is, in a way, a beginner’s step to the real journey in the high school days to continue that same excellence and go on to the NHS program.
NJHS consists of 30 bright young men and women. Splitting the group up into nine freshman members who will be shadowed by 12 – 8th graders and 9 – 7th graders. Tayen Whited is the president with Sidnee City as the treasurer. The secretary is Addison Figge, who runs the communications and promotions for NJHS. Maggie Van Leer is the Vice President and assists Tayen with her duties. This young group of students is thriving each and every day through meetings and activities to make themselves better and to be an example for what Sacred Heart teaches each one of these bright young minds who walk through those front doors every day.
