NHS Activities

• The NHS staffs the Middle School Rally that Loyola puts on every year for the local middle schools. These middle-school students compete in Math, Science, Language Arts, and History, and the winning school takes home a sweepstakes trophy.
• NHS Spring Induction: NHS Seniors receive gold cords to wear at graduation, and new members are welcomed into the group. This event is held annually in the spring at St. John's Cathedral after the school Mass.
