PERRYSBURG – Penta Career Center students will be inducted into the National Technical Honor Society
(NTHS) during a special ceremony tonight at Penta Career Center. This year 16 students will be honored
for their career-technical achievements.
The NTHS is similar to the National Honor Society at comprehensive high schools where students are
recognized for scholarship, leadership, service and character. Membership in the NTHS at Penta requires
students to maintain excellent attendance, good behavior and a 3.5 grade point average. In addition,
inductees must meet the seven attributes of NTHS (skills, honesty, service, responsibility, scholarship,
citizenship, and leadership).
This is the second year the NTHS has been in existence for students at Penta. It was established in 2013
as an additional way to recognize student achievement and leadership.
"We are pleased that the students are still eligible to apply for membership in the National Honor
Society at their member schools. The NTHS is just another way for students to be recognized at Penta for
their career-technical achievements," said Missy Emerine, instructor of Your Exploratory Success
101 and one of the advisors for NTHS.
Students who have been selected for induction into the 2014 NTHS at Penta include: Courtney Blevins
(Springfield), Early Child-hood Education; Cassandra Braden (Elmwood), Medical Technologies; Christyanne
Dazley (Genoa), Medical Tech-nologies; Marisa D’Emilio (Genoa), Cosmetology; Julia Dieckhoner (Swanton),

During the ceremony the following students will be inducted as officers into the NTHS at Penta. They are:

Each NTHS inductee will receive a membership certificate, pin, window decal, a seal for their high school
