WABASH, IN- On Sunday, April 28th, Wabash High School held its annual National Honor Society Induction and Academic Letter Celebration in front of a full auditorium on the campus of Wabash MS/HS.

In the second ceremony of the day, 43 students were awarded Academic Letters. Created during the 1986-87 school year, the Academic Letter award was created with the purpose of increasing the recognition and rewarding of academically talented Wabash High School students. In 1988 the first Academic Letters were issued to specially qualified students. Today the criteria for receiving an academic letter is just as rigorous as it was at its inception. In addition to semester honor rolls and academic grades, students are able to qualify by earning points for participation on Academic Teams, attending Academic Conferences, and participation with other extracurricular academic activities conducted outside of the normal school setting.
