Jonathan Law High School held their annual Tri-M Music Honor Society and National Art Honor Society induction ceremonies.

The informal ceremony was held on March 26 during common time to recognize the new members of both organizations.

“Members were given a certificate, read the Tri-M Pledge, and enjoyed some refreshments with the other members,” Tri-M Chapter Advisor Mr. Pelaggi said.

To be inducted into Tri-M or National Arts Honor Society, students must have been in a music or art class for at least a year,  an A or higher in their art or music classes, and a B or higher average in their academic classes. Students must also serve as leaders and advocates for the arts.

By joining Tri-M or National Art Honors Society, members get to help out the community by sharing their  love of the arts with others. 

“To contribute to the National Art Honor Society we have painted bowls for the Empty Bowl Project, an international project to fight hunger one bowl at a time,” Tri M and National Art Honor Society member Isabelle Maselli said “We are also planning to paint many murals around the school. In Tri-M, I am planning to volunteer at the middle school music concerts.”

Members inducted at this meeting will now be able to participate in meetings for their organizations. At these meetings students will figure out ways to use the arts to better the community throughout Milford and beyond.

“I was incredibly honored to be officially inducted into the National Art Honor Society,” National Art Honor Society member Skylar Johnson said. “I’m so excited to further contribute to our community and spread positivity through art.”

Tri-M Chapter Advisor Ms. Jones was happy to induct new members.

“I am really excited to see and hear the new and innovative ways our students will help to build the program,” Jones said.
