Bergan Chapter has been a chartered member of the National Honor Society since 1971.  Eligible juniors and seniors will be notified in September, and students who desire membership must submit their application and required essay.  Candidates selected by the faculty board for induction will participate in a special ceremony on Wednesday, February 8, 2012 at 9:05 am in the main gym.  Families are welcome to attend.
