Chapter Highlight:
Bobbitt Construction Immersion Day

Students from Middle Creek High School in Apex, North Carolina, put in the hard work at Bobbitt Construction’s Immersive Experience Day and learned so much about jobs in the construction field.

New NTHS Honor Roll Inductee!
|
|
|
October's NTHS Honor Roll inductee comes from a newer chapter and helped her school organize its first induction ceremony. Please join us in recognizing Jenifer Moore from Alamo Heights High School in San Antonio, Texas!
When nominating Jenifer, her NTHS advisor had this to say:
"This is our first year to have a National Technical Honor Society at our school and Jenifer helped coordinate our first induction ceremony. She took the lead on decorations and helping to plan the order of speakers and organized the certificate handout. Jenifer is also the president of our TAFE organization. She has taken on many roles during her senior year, which is not normally something seniors want to do especially after they have already been accepted to the University of their choice."

|
|
"NTHS is important to me because it recognizes students jumpstarting on their career path! It truly recognizes students for all the hard work and dedication they put in all the years for!"
- Jenifer Moore
