Presbyterian Christian School proudly hosted the Foreign Language Honor Society Induction Ceremony, celebrating students excelling in Spanish and Latin. The event recognized outstanding scholars in both language disciplines and emphasized the importance of language acquisition beyond academic requirements.
At PCS, students must complete at least two consecutive years of foreign language study, and the school is blessed with exceptional faculty. Mrs. Nolvia Ventura (Spanish) and Mr. Bennett (Latin) are dedicated educators who inspire students to deepen their linguistic skills and cultural understanding. Language learning serves as more than a diploma requirement; it connects students to new perspectives, friendships, and global opportunities.
Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica – Chapter Cuscatlán
Founded in 1953 by the American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese, the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica (Spanish Honor Society) acknowledges students who demonstrate excellence in Spanish studies. The PCS chapter, Cuscatlán, was established in 2012 through the efforts of Mrs. Ventura.
The 2024-2025 chapter officers include: President: Kat Woodard; Vice President: Saylor Sims; Historian: Annaleigh Miller; Secretary: Sara Mills Gallaspy; Treasurer: Stella Claire Dews
The chapter’s motto, “All together,” reflects the unity and collaborative spirit of language learning. The official colors, red and gold, symbolize the vibrancy and prestige of the society.
National Latin Honor Society
The Latin Honor Society, affiliated with the National Junior Classical League, promotes a deeper understanding of classical history, literature, and culture. It instills appreciation for the practical and historical significance of the classical languages, including government, law, and the arts.
Membership in the National Latin Honor Society is a distinguished achievement, requiring excellence in academics and exemplary character. Eligible students must maintain a high A average in Latin and demonstrate strong citizenship and leadership in the classroom and beyond.
Student leaders for the PCS chapter for the 2024-2025 school year include: President: Alexis Freeman; Vice President: Rhett Robertson
During the ceremony, faculty commended inductees for their dedication and encouraged all language students to continue striving for excellence. The event underscored the value of linguistic and cultural education, reinforcing PCS’ commitment to developing globally-minded individuals. Congratulations to all 2024-2025 foreign language honorary inductees!
