Welcome to the Omicron Iota Lambda (OIL) Chapter of the National Honor Society.
This site will keep you current on the ongoing projects that we will be doing during the school year. Check out the calendar!
There are also links to the constitution and by-laws that we follow.
There is a link to the handbook so that you can stay knowledgeable of the expectations for membership in our chapter as well as how to report your service hours or apply for an officer position for your senior year.
If you have not joined remind, please email me or Mrs. Shellhorse for the code. You are missing important messages about volunteer hours.
Thank you!
On Friday, Senior Picture Day/Senior Walk Day, you will be given your stolle to wear. You will keep the stolle in your possession until graduation. Keep it in a safe place! It is your responsibility to return it AFTER the graduation ceremony. Mrs. Frazier will have more instructions, but I wanted you to know.
Congratulations!!
Our spring project is off and running! Keller has done a great job of looking into an organization that can use our help. Please READ BELOW decide what you can do.
If you are interested in delivering the items, please get with Keller so you can plan with him.
Remember that participating in our spring project is a requirement for your membership. It will also earn hours. You need 6 hours before May. This can count towards that.
Thanks for all you do!
Hopefully next year we will be able to have meetings. It was a scheduling nightmare this year!
NHS Spring Project — supplies for The Martin House
April 17 – May 1
When a child is a suspected victim of sexual or physical abuse or witnesses to violent crimes they’re taken to Martin House Children’s Advocacy Center (CAC) for video assessments and physical examinations.
The Martin House CAC is a non-profit organization whose goal is to make the children and families visiting their center feel comfortable and safe. They need items like snacks, toys and art supplies to make these children feel secure when their world is being torn apart.
We will donate the items listed below to help them achieve this goal. Please do your best to donate as many items as you can. Every item plays an important role in protecting children impacted by abuse.
Each member will receive two hours per item donated, and an additional credit hour if they help deliver the items on May 2. We will schedule a time to present the collected items to their office (606 Garfield Dr Suite D) where they will take pictures for social media.
Hopefully, applications for new members will be handed out on Jan 22. They will be due Feb 5, by 3:50 PM in Mrs. Frazier’s office. This is a hard deadline as in “set-in-stone” and cannot be changed or extended.
Mark your calendars! The Induction Ceremony is set for March 3 at 2:30 PM. You will receive instructions closer to time for what to wear and when to be there. We will be taking a group picture before the ceremony. If you are a current member, this is required attendance.
Inductees are required by the National Honor Society to go through the Induction Ceremony. This is a requirement for membership.
