    HANCEVILLE, Ala. – For its exemplary record of leadership, service and efforts to improve the school and community, the National Honor Society (NHS) awarded the Hanceville High School NHS the Chapter of Distinction award. The NHS is supported by its parent organization, the National Principal’s Association (NPA). 

    “I am very proud of what our NHS has accomplished over the past year. Ms. Teri Weaver is working very hard to not only promote high scholastic achievement, but to also build excellent leaders for the real world. We hope that the leadership abilities they learn will help make our school and community a better place,” said Hanceville High School Principal Daniel Wakefield. 

    “The Hanceville NHS chapter demonstrates how powerful it can be when young leaders channel their talents toward meaningful service and positive change,” said NPA CEO Ronn Nozoe. “The NHS Chapter of Distinction Award celebrates chapters that truly embody what the National Honor Society stands for–students who don’t just excel academically but actively strengthen their communities.”

    The NHS Chapters of Distinction is a national recognition program created by NHS to honor chapters that demonstrate strong leadership, sound operations and a deep commitment to the pillars of the Honor Society. This distinction recognizes chapters that meet all of the essential standards and excel in key areas such as student governance and leadership development.
