Annie Sims Elementary School held its National Elementary Honor Society (NEHS) induction ceremony on Tuesday, November 1. Forty 4th graders became members of the Sims chapter of the National Elementary Honor Society before an audience of proud family members, teachers, administrators, and friends. NEHS recognizes 4th grade students for their outstanding academic achievement and demonstrated personal responsibility. The organization seeks to provide meaningful service activities for students to both the school and the community and to develop essential leadership skills in elementary school students.

New members Zahra Abbas and Moriah Eskew led the pledges to the United States and Texas flags and Daniel Crabb gave the invocation. Students and audience members listened as chapter officers described the important characteristics of an NEHS member. The officers for the 2022-2023 school year are President Dominic Villanueva, Vice President Sebastian Cates, Secretary Carter Cameron, and Treasurer Isabella Alvarez.

Annie Sims Principal Jeannie Pat Jaggers thanked the family members for the involvement they show in the education of their students and praised the students on their achievements. Guest speaker, Stephanie Guzman, an Annie Sims student herself once, told the students about making up her mind to work hard at an early age and how that determination led her to becoming a Nurse Practitioner.
