Each year the Hebrew Academy Fana Holtz High School welcomes new members to the Rabbi Yossi Heber Negba Chapter of the National Honor Society (NHS). This year Hebrew Academy inducted 11 new members. Students are selected not only for academic achievement but also for character, service, and leadership qualities.
Head of school Rabbi Zvi Kahn congratulated the students and wished them continued success. The NHS was also honored to have Bob Diener as keynote speaker. Mr. Diener is well known for his professional success and has always given much of the credit for that success to his Jewish day school education.
The ceremony was followed by a brunch for the members and their families.
