Mrs. Murphy, an art teacher at Jonathan Law, runs the school’s National Art Honors Society. This year, they welcomed 14 new students along with the returning six students. In previous years, they have done an induction ceremony, welcoming every new and returning student into NAHS and they have all come together to paint an adirondack chair. On Friday, October 19 in the front lobby and by the auditorium they will be doing henna tattoos on students. Prices range from $1-$10 to support the NAHS and all the activities they plan to do. Advocate Staff Reporter Stefanie Lojko interviewed Murphy about the club.
