Becton Inducts New Members to World Language Honor Society

Savannah Jones, Editor

On May 17, 2016, the Spanish and Italian Honor Societies held their annual induction for new students.

In order to be inducted into the World Language Honor Society, students must have an overall GPA of 85 and 2 years of a language averaging at least a 90. Last Tuesday, 22 students were inducted.

The Italian Honor Society advisor, Mrs. Hopper, along with Presidents Jessica Tripodi and Jamie Scangarella and Vice president Rafal Kolodziej welcomed 11 new members to the existing 26 members.

The Spanish Honor Society advisor, Mrs. Tripodi, joined by President Kaitlyn Vasquez and Vice Presidents Nadia Gani and Suienne Silva welcomed an additional 11 members to the existing 42 members. Next year, the advisor will become Mrs. Sanchez due to Mrs. Tripodi’s retirement.

The World Language Honor Society would like to thank the Board of Education, administration, parents, teachers and students for their participation in the honorary event. Congratulations to all of the new members of both World Language Societies:
