Jake Krack and Heather Weaver, both seniors at Calhoun High School, have been nominated to compete in the National Honor Society scholarship sponsored by the National Association of Secondary School Principals.

The nominations place the duo in national competition. Two hundred national NHS winners will be chosen this spring to receive $1,000 college scholarships.

High schools throughout the country nominate two senior high members of the National Honor Society to compete. Nominees are selected on leadership skills, participation in service organizations and clubs, achievements in the arts and sciences, employment experience, and academic record. They also wrote essays.

In recognizing leadership in co-curricular activities as well as academic performance, the NHS scholarship recognizes the importance of a well-rounded education; something these two young people have mastered.
