Eastland-Fairfield Career & Technical Schools

On Monday, May 6, 2024, Eastland-Fairfield Career & Technical Schools inducted 43 students, all juniors, into the National Technical Honors Society (NTHS) satellite program chapter. The ceremony to recognize the newly inducted NTHS members was held inside Clark Hall at Lincoln High School in Gahanna.

Students from all seven Eastland-Fairfield satellite programs representing nine high schools were recognized for their combination of scholastic achievement and character. This year’s NTHS satellite induction class featured two more students than the previous year, which was one of the largest classes on record. Each instructor proudly introduced their students and welcomed them into the National Technical Honor Society.

A complete list of inductees is available below.

Prior to the NTHS Class of 2024 being inducted Dr. Sydney Green, a 2015 Gahanna-Lincoln High School and Bioscience program graduate, addressed those in attendance about the program’s impact on her life and career. Dr. Green is currently an associate professor at Denison University specializing in industrial organizational psychology.

To be considered for NTHS in the satellite program chapter, a student must earn a 3.5 or higher grade point average, receive three letters of recommendation outside of their program lab instructor, and demonstrate the seven attributes of an NTHS member: knowledge, skill, scholarship, honesty, responsibility, service, leadership, and citizenship.
