"Mirror, Mirror on the Wall, There's a Leader In Us All," "Unleashing Your Inner Yoda," and "Behind Every Face is a Story." These were just some of the breakout sessions high school students, including five from CJ, could attend at the Wilks High School Leadership Conference at Miami University on Friday, April 15.

Scholarship, leadership, service and character are the four qualities that describe members of the National Honors Society at Chaminade Julienne. On Monday, March 21, select juniors and seniors were inducted into the elite group. 11 seniors were newly inducted as well as 47 juniors, who were in their first year of eligibility.

"To be invited to apply for membership, the student must have a 3.5 or higher GPA," Jim Sparrow, teacher and NHS moderator. "If they apply, their service, character, and leadership are scrutinized. We put Catholic teaching at the center of our chapter."

CJ's Eagles for Life club was recently named the 2015 National High School Group of the Year by the Students for Life of America organization.

"As a member of Eagles for Life, I feel very proud of our group's accomplishments," said Mo Zopff '16.  "I think this award really shows how much we've done in one year.  Considering there are so many other high schools that could've won this award, I think it shows a lot about our group."

Delectable desserts were on display as the Language Club recently sponsored an International dessert cook-off for a cause.

"We are transitioning and trying new things," said club co-president Natalie Allen '16 about the event.
