Greetings Middle School Families,

We are proud to announce the induction of forty Oakridge Middle School Owls into the Sid Richardson Chapter of The National Junior Honor Society. These students were recognized for their academic excellence and success. By becoming members of NJHS, students pledge to maintain and develop service, leadership, character, citizenship, and scholarship. We are grateful for our current members who continue to uphold these exceptional standards and we look forward to the phenomenal work that will be carried out by our new inductees.
