Dodd inducted 111 eighth-grade students into the prestigious National junior Honor Society during a special ceremony attended by members of the Freeport Board of Education, Superintendent of Schools Dr. Kishore Kuncham and members of the central administration, students' families and teachers.
These students were inducted following their remarkable demonstration of the five tenets of scholarship, citizenship, leadership, character and service. They were also required to have held a grade-point-average of 85 or better for all four quarters of seventh grade and the first quarter of eighth grade, completed an application, obtained a letter of recommendation from a teacher and performed 10 hours of community service.
The district extends its congratulations to these students for their outstanding accomplishments, and wishes them continued success as they prepare to transition to the high school.
