Being recognized at the national level as an academic top student in Spanish. Not only does this recognition feels good for any student who has worked so hard for the past three years in Spanish class but more importantly, it looks great on college applications.

- At the Induction Ceremony, inducted students receive an official certificate issued by the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica - Inducted students can be elected President, Vice-President, Treasurer, Secretary and Ambassador as Seniors by their inducted fellow members, which again, certainly demonstrates certain character traits -such as leadership- on college applications.
