Montini Catholic's National Honor Society (St. Pope Paul VI Chapter) proudly inducted fifty-nine (59) new members on Wednesday, October 29, 2025 at our NHS Induction Ceremony. Through leadership, scholarship, service, and character - Montini's National Honor Society program, led by Mr. Michael Dailey, prepares Montini students to make a lasting impact at Montini, in their communities and well beyond. Returning NHS members joined the inductees to celebrate the newest members and to renew their own commitments to the goals of the National Honor Society.
NHS officers led inductees in the Ceremony of Light and Pillars which explained the four pillars of success which are the basis for which Montini's chapter was founded upon and the characteristics that each member strives to emulate in their everyday lives. Seniors were also presented with special NHS stoles to wear at graduation in May.
Assistant Principals Sara Lhotka and Lexxie Gora and NHS moderators Michael Dailey and Kelly Davis were in attendance to congratulate the honored students. "Each of you being inducted tonight has shown that excellence is not only about personal success, but about uplifting others and living out our Lasallian charism of faith, service and community," said Mrs. Gora. "You have taken the gifts God has given you - your talents, your intellect, your compassion - and added your own dedication, focus, and persistence to achieve these blessings and successes."
