A student that shows leadership. One that shows they are an active learner, an independent thinker. We look for someone who is responsible and does the right thing. Someone who goes out of their way to help others no matter what it is and how it may affect them. One who has a positive attitude, always dedicated and never gives up on their work, trying their hardest and getting outstanding grades and GPA. Someone who is involved and active with the school, like in academic clubs, sports, volunteer work. Or even students who have come along through the past 4 years of their high school career and showed growth, like in this case, as a person and a student. At this time, i would like to call up Keaton Durbin to receive the GHS Golden Key Award. It’s is my pleasure to present this award and scholarship to someone who has went above and beyond with their high school career showing all the great attributes and more to earn this. So thank you for being such a great student and role model for everyone around you and

    National Junior Honor Society has been a dream for me over the course of my school career. However, I never thought I’d be able to make it come true. During my life I’ve seen notable examples of leadership, scholarship, service, citizenship, and character in this world and they’ve influenced me as a person and through NJHS I can make each of these pillars more of a part of my life. Leadership, to me, is being someone anyone can look up to. You don’t have to be the strongest, or the smartest, or any of those.…
