On Friday, 4 Harding students were selected for induction into the National Honor Society: Olivia Fiebig, Arianna Figueroa, Marissa Malone, and Natalie Phillips. Membership in the NHS is one of the highest honors that can be awarded to a high school student. Students in the 10th, 11th, and 12th grades are invited to apply for membership based on their cumulative GPA of 3.4 or higher. These students then go through a rigorous application and selection process before being chosen for Induction. The Induction Ceremony will be held in the Branthoover Auditorium at Harding High School on March 19, 2025.

Summer Youth Corps is an opportunity for students to volunteer with the American Red Cross in Northern Ohio. We are thrilled to be offering this exciting opportunity to young people ages 13-24 who want to give back during the summer (and the opportunity to participate during the school year, if available to volunteer).

The Red Cross is looking for youth and young adults interested in gaining and honing their customer service skills by joining our team as a Blood Drive Donor Ambassador volunteer this summer, between May 1-September 1, 2025. The attached flyer will provide you with all the information needed!

Please join also us for a Red Cross Virtual Volunteer Information Session on Monday, April 7th from 5:30-6:30 PM to learn more about Summer Youth Corps Blood Donor Ambassador, and other volunteer opportunities where help is needed the most. Faculty, parents and students welcome to attend! Attached are flyers to post and advertise.
