Feed the Need Mission has been operating in the La Grange community for almost four years. Every October that means we are gearing up for our Gobble kit campaign.

Twenty-three students from La Grange High School were recently inducted as new members of the National Honor Society. Members were selected by the chapter’s faculty council for meeting high standards of scholarship, service, leadership, and character. “We are very proud to recognize these outstanding members of our student body. National Honor Society members are chosen for and then expected to continue their exemplary contributions to the school and community,” said Heather Muesse, chapter adviser. The National Honor Society ranks as one of the oldest and most prestigious national organizations for high school students; the La Grange High School chapter has been active since 1990. There are chapters in more than 16,000 high schools and, since 1921, millions of students have been selected for membership. Students inducted were (front row) Azucena Ramirez, Ella Nygren, Eleanor Carey, Diamond McKenzie, Ivanna Caceres-Anaya, Caleigh Brock, Ellah Hill, Graysen Moore, Natalia Soto, Jaley Stork, Elena Supak; (back row) Meadow Taylor-Marklin, Marissa Muras, Trinity Yanis, Kaedyn Otto, Hunter Sabo, Parker Weishuhn, Landon Muesse, Gavin Cook, Hannah Garrison, Bailey Swisher, Hope Michalke, Ella Janacek.
