Interesting Facts: |
We seek to initiate the top students at Shawnee Mission East for membership in the Lancer Chapter of National Honor Society. We are looking to induct self motivated students who can meet deadlines and advocate for themselves. Mrs. Murphy is available before and after school, as well as during seminar, in the counseling office to meet with any students that have questions. As we induct students and not parents, it is our policy not to return the phone calls and e-mails of parents regarding criteria and the membership application process for National Honor Society. |
