On Thursday evening, April 15, 2021, Lytle Junior High School held their first inaugural National Junior Honor Society Induction Ceremony in the Auditorium. Mrs. Tina Reyna, the NJHS Faculty Advisor served as the Master of Ceremonies. (Mrs. Jana Beth Parker served as Co-Advisor in preparation for the ceremony.)
 
In front of an audience of proud parents, grandparents, siblings, district leaders and Superintendent Michelle Carroll Smith, a committee of Junior High faculty members participated in the ceremony. Mrs. Megan McCarthy spoke on Scholarship, Mr. Jeffrey Salinas spoke on Service, Mrs. Allison Null spoke on Leadership, Mrs. MJ Robles spoke on Leadership, Coach Brian Clark spoke on Citizenship, and Assistant Principal Mark Raygosa called each student to the stage to receive their certificate and pin. Junior High Principal, Mrs. Elizabeth Stewart shared these words with the seventh and eighth grade student inductees, and all in attendance:

"As you know, we started NJHS last year, but because of Covid, we did not get to formally induct our students until tonight.

The students sitting before us are the cream of the crop. They continue to excel in all that they do and represent the Junior High well. They are our top students, they participate and excel in band, sports, and our clubs, and they are also outstanding members of our community. They are models for all of us and because of this, we honor them this evening.

I challenge them this evening to continue to be role models for others. I challenge them to continue to embody all the traits that we have presented this evening and to continue to be the very best they that they can be. In parting, I will share the words of my grandfather who greatly influenced me. He often said, “Always remember who you are, remember where you came from, and know where you are going and in doing so, you will do great things.”

Please take a moment to look through the photos from this special night and congratulate our NJHS inductees and their families!
