WEHS NHS holds “Princess Tea Party”

Posted

The Williston-Elko High School chapter of the National Honor Society hosted a “Princess Tea Party” for young girls of the community on May 21.

Attendees and their mothers or family members enjoyed refreshments, while the princesses posed for pictures, worked on crafts, and had a dance party. By hosting this event, the National Honor Society aimed to promote literacy and a positive self-image for the young girls in the community. A princess story time was part of the event, and each child received a book of her own to take home, courtesy of Barnwell County First Steps.

The high school students planned and hosted the event, and the WEHS chapter of the National Honor society would like to thank all of those who participated, as well as those who partnered with them to make this event possible: Barnwell County First Steps, D29 Superintendent Dr. Marcella Shaw, the Katina Brown family, and First Baptist Church Williston. The National Honor Society holds its members to high standards of service, character, leadership, and scholarship.

The event was so successful that the National Honor Society hopes to host it on an annual basis.
