French Teachers Richard Espenant and Morgan Miense had the honor of inducting eight exceptional students into the French Honor Society on Tuesday, March 4. These students were carefully chosen for their outstanding academic achievements in all French courses throughout their high school education, as well as their profound interest in Francophone culture.

Established in 1949 by the American Association of Teachers of French, the French Honor Society upholds the motto: "One who knows two languages is worth two people." Here are this year's inductees:

From the Class of 2025:
Margaret Mckay

From the Class of 2024:
Eva Choe
Binyam Dunne
Alondra Martinez Ordaz
