Mid-America Technology Center celebrated the induction of 141 high school and adult students at the annual National Technical Honor Society (NTHS) Induction Ceremonies on March 25th and 27th.
Mr. Doyle Greteman served as the evening’s guest speaker, delivering an inspirational message that encouraged the students to continue doing what is “good,” drawing from the powerful words of Alexis de Tocqueville:
“Not until I went into the churches of America and heard the pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the greatness and genius of America. America is great because America is good. If America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”
He emphasized that the pursuit of goodness aligns closely with the core values of NTHS, particularly in the areas of Leadership Development and Service Opportunities.
To be eligible for NTHS membership, students must meet a specific set of criteria. The student must have a 93 or above in their technology program coursework each semester, have no more than four absences per semester, perform community service, and be a member of their student organization.
The National Technical Honor Society has a mission to honor student achievement and leadership, promote educational excellence, and enhance career opportunities for technical students. They provide recognition for excellence in technical education and create occupational opportunities for America's top workforce education students.
