The Jonathan Law Spanish Honor Society is an academic club promoting the study and appreciation of Spanish culture. 

The club was founded this year and many students have already joined. 

“I decided to join the Spanish Honor Society because I am Hispanic and wanted to be a part of a community that represents my heritage,” senior Caesar Mendez said. 

The club’s advisors, Mrs. Trombetta and Mr. McPartland, are excited about the student interest in the club. 

“We are very excited about the induction ceremony in December,” Trombetta said. “We have over 50 members.”

The club was proposed two years ago and students are happy it finally came to life.

“The Spanish Honor Society has grown a lot since it was founded,” senior Sarah Ahmed said. “Myself, along with a student who graduated last year, went to Ms. Trombetta came up with the idea two years ago, and now it’s officially an honor society here at Law.”

As part of the club, members discuss their goals for the future and how they can contribute to the Jonathan Law community during meetings.

“At the meetings, we talk about how we can help our community, our goals, and what we want to accomplish in the future,” senior Christian Mead said.

The Spanish Honor Society helps students learn more about Spanish language and culture and promote them to the Law community.

“I like that we make Spanish more visible in the Law community,” senior Yeiden Nieves said. “It’s important for everyone to learn about different cultures, and our club helps to do that through fun activities and events.”

Mendez said he loves the community aspect of the club.

“Being a part of the Spanish Honor Society is a great experience,” Mendez said. “Its about immersing yourself in the culture and being part of a community.”
