Congratulations to the 101 academic superstars inducted Tuesday into Albany High School’s Arista Chapter of National Honor Society.
The students, all seniors, were eligible for National Honor Society because each has maintained an overall academic average of 89.5 or higher.
The National Honor Society was founded in 1921 to help create a better-rounded student who would be willing to put his or her talents to work serving others in society. Albany High’s Arista Chapter was formed in 1957 and admitted 15 students in its first group of inductees.
