Badin High School inducted 57 students into its National Honor Society chapter during its annual evening ceremony on Thursday, Oct. 24, in Badin’s Mulcahey Gym.

“These students do an outstanding job in the classroom,” Badin High Principal Brian Pendergest said. “But they are also very well-rounded, and their performance all across the board helps make Badin an outstanding place to go to school.”
