A new award is shining a light on the students who make service a meaningful part of school and community life. Rhyan O’Leary, a senior member of the National Honor Society (NHS) Chapter, is the first recipient of the NHS Service Leader of the Month.

The award was created by Patrikios Constanti, the NHS Service Leader, who coordinates volunteers to assist at district schools and community events. Impressed by Rhyan’s commitment to volunteering, Patrikios saw an opportunity to recognize the dedication that helps these efforts succeed.

Rhyan’s selection also opens a new tradition: celebrating NHS members whose service strengthens the communities around them. School broadcast students interviewed Patrikios and Rhyan to learn more about the award and the value of volunteering.

Congratulations to Rhyan on being the first NHS Service Leader of the Month!
