SOPHOMORE & JUNIOR STUDENTS & PARENTS!
Is your student interested in being invited to join National Honor Society next school year? Well, here are some important details to keep in mind, so your child can start working on his/her “resume”. These are the requirements for students to be considered as candidates for the Nease chapter of National Honor Society:
Eligibility for National Honor Society:
o NHS is open only to Juniors and Seniors
o 3.80 SHARP WEIGHTED GPA (not rounded)
o Rising Juniors (Sophomores now) – minimum of 40 documented service hours IN eSCHOOL (HAC) documented by end of August at the start of your Junior year.
o Rising Seniors (Juniors now) – minimum of 50 documented hours IN eSCHOOL (HAC) by the end of August at the start of your senior year.
o Enrolled in at least 2 Honors, AP, or DE courses (or a combo of any of these) for the school year 2022-23.
· Eligible Juniors and Seniors who have the required GPA and required service hours at the start of the school year, will receive an invitation for an “Informational Meeting” in September to discuss the requirements and expectations of all members in National Honor Society. At that point they will receive a “Selection/Resume” packet that must be completed and submitted by deadline date.
· Eligibility does not guarantee admission. Other factors that will determine candidacy are leadership, school involvement in clubs, events, and activities, outside leadership and club involvement (ie: Scouts, church, community groups, work, etc.). The Faculty Council (8 anonymous faculty members) review all the resumes and make the final decisions regarding invitation to become a member or does not meet needed requirements. Juniors that did not meet requirements have the opportunity to become eligible at the start of Senior year. All confirmed candidates will be inducted into the club in a ceremony that will take place sometime in October. Confirmation letters will be sent out during the last week of September.
· NOTE – students and parents – please understand that commitment to our chapter of National Honor Society requires a substantial dedication of time and service to our school, our students, and our community. Members WILL BE REQUIRED to complete 25 National Honor Society sponsored community service hours each year of membership to remain in good standing with the club and receive their white stole for graduation. The philosophy and commitment of this chapter is to maintain a high level of service and commitment to our students, faculty, and community and this involves volunteering outside of school at community events and supporting our feeder elementary/middle schools. These expectations directly align to our chapter mission statement & purpose:
“The purpose of this chapter shall be to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote worthy leadership, and to encourage the development of character in students of Allen D. Nease High School.”

Hearts of Gold is a medical volunteering club at Nease High School that focuses on creating opportunities for students to contribute to the medical community in meaningful ways. Over the winter holidays, the Hearts of Gold club at Nease created a fundraiser that successfully raised over $2,000 for the Wolfson Children’s Hospital’s Duran Genetics Research Center. This donation will contribute to raising the needed funds for the Duran Genetics Center. Our team from Nease High School presented a check to Baptist Health Foundation’s Associate Director of Development, Jessica Nguyen.
The following students participated and were honored in a check-giving ceremony with Baptist Health Foundation. From left to right: Christy Shao, Joshua Samet, Emal Kashif, Dhivya Kumar, Mr. Lay (Sponsor) Shreya Kalarikkal, Nithila Neminathan, Sheza Mehruf, and Nikitha Rajagopalan.
From Jessica Nguyen and the Baptist Health Foundation Team:
“On behalf of Wolfson Children’s Hospital and Baptist Health Foundation, thank you so much for your efforts in raising funds for the Duran Genetics Center. Your support and fierce generosity impacts patients and their families when they need it most, and we are so grateful for you! Your group’s commitment to giving back to the community is so inspiring. Keep up the amazing work!”
Congratulations and great job to the Hearts of Gold Club at Nease High School!

Congratulations to the several Nease Panther Track & Field standouts. Cyrus Ways ran a blazing fast 14.17 seconds for the 110m hurdles to win his race at PV. This sets the standards for all hurdlers in all classifications in the state of Florida. Alexa Bohanon has broken the school record 3 times this season in the javelin throwing 127 feet 9 inches. She currently ranks 3rd in the state for all classifications in the javelin even though she is only a freshman. Rheinhardt Harrison ran 1:51 for 800m to win the Bolles Bulldog Inv. just missing his school record by fractions of a section. Hannah Sutter took 2nd at PV this past weekend throwing the shot put just under 36 feet. This puts her in the top 10 all-time for Nease. The Nease track & field team looks to continue their success as they aim for the championship meets.

Nease JROTC is best drill team in northeast Florida & state of Georgia
PONTE VEDRA – Nease lost its last sanctioned drill meet in Area-12 exactly two thousand, nine hundred and nineteen days ago. Since that defeat during the 2014 Area-12 Drill Championships, Nease has reeled off 29 consecutive drill championships – the last being the 2022 Area-12 Academic, Athletic and Drill Championship at Coffee County, GA on March 5.
With eight straight state championships beginning in 2015, Nease established itself as arguably northeast Florida’s most dominating high school championship program.
Competing against the very best 15 Navy high school JROTC drill teams in Area-12, an area which includes all of northeastern Florida and the entire state of Georgia, Nease swept first place in all 5 Drill events, all 3 Athletic events, Personnel Inspection and narrowly placed second only in Academics – thereby preventing a clean sweep across the board.
Nease competed in five previous drill competitions this year, winning at Sprayberry (GA), Lee County (GA), Martin Luther King (GA), Mandarin (FL) and Flanagan (Miami, FL).
“This team has improved exponentially since our first competition last October,” said senior naval science instructor Captain scott LaRochelle. “We’re peaking at just the right time with the national championships only three weeks away.”
The team will travel to Naval Air Station Pensacola for the Navy National Academic, Athletic and Drill Championships April 1-2 to compete against the 25 best programs in the country.
Nease’s individual drill commanders chose the right time to deliver their very best performances. Isabella Rivera (Color Guard and Unarmed Exhibition), Kaitlyn Boggs (Unarmed Basic), Daniel Mahoney (Armed Exhibition) and Brodie Mongon (Armed Basic) led their units to near perfect scores during the competition.
“One of the competition judges was previously assigned as a member of the Marine Corps Ceremonial Honor Guard in Washington, DC,” said Master Chief Duane Spears. “He commented that our cadets’ discipline and focus in drill was the best he had ever seen.”
“Being on this team has taught me so much about leadership and teamwork,” said Rivera. “As a freshman, I was just happy to be a part of the team. Now as a senior, I have the opportunity to command under pressure… and it’s awesome.” Her hard work paid dividends as she has already received appointments to both the U.S. Coast Guard Academy, Merchant Marine Academy, and a national NROTC scholarship to Virginia Tech.
Several cadets also garnered top honors for individual performance, including Ben Prohofsky – 1st in Academics, Anthony Tucker – 1st in Male Situps, and Daniella Camacho – 1st in Female Situps.
“My class has never lost a drill meet in Area-12,” said senior Nate Fagen, who unfortunately is unable to attend nationals as he will be vying for a state title as captain of Nease’s Weightlifting Team on the same date. These seniors are like my brothers and sisters.”

Engineering Academy Guest Speaker Event
We are excited to welcome Mechanical Engineer Amber Katada to Nease as a guest speaker. The event will take place during Excel A on Wednesday, March 23rd. Ms. Katada works in research and development at Medtronics, and has a very interesting background to share. Come learn what it takes to become a successful Mechanical Engineer! This event is open to all Engineering Academy students and any other students who are interested. The event will be in Mr. Arias' Engineering lab, Panther Hall 221, during Excel A. For more information on Ms. Katada, here is her bio:
I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering at UNF. My first engineering job was as a mechanical engineer designing HVAC layouts. After two years of learning the trade while working on healthcare, commercial and military facilities, and getting credentialed as a LEED Expert, I switched gears and decided to change industries to follow my passion for health, wellness and “how stuff works”. I now work as an R&D engineer designing new medical devices for Medtronic. Since starting at Medtronic 4 years ago three of the designs I have collaborated on have received patents. I also regularly volunteer to coach kids in business development and robotics.
Join us during Excel A on March 23rd, in Panther Hall 221, to hear from Ms. Katada and see some of her work.
Wayne D. Hartley Academy Scholarship
Nease Academy Seniors in the Engineering, Communications or Hospitality Academy are eligible to apply for the Wayne D. Hartley Scholarship. Two students will be selected for the one-time $1,000.00 scholarship. See the application for the scholarship here: Dr. Wayne Hartley Memorial Scholarship Application The deadline for all scholarship materials to be received at INK is Tuesday, April 19th.
Stellar Scholarship for Engineering Academy Seniors
Stellar Academy of Engineering Seniors, you are eligible to apply for the Stellar Scholarship. Up to two engineering Seniors will be selected, earning $1,000 each. Read the application carefully, and be sure to turn everything in via email to Mrs. Combs at jaime.combs@stjohns.k12.fl.us, or by dropping off your materials to Mrs. Combs in the main office, no later than Friday, April 1st. You can print the application below or pick up a hard copy from your Engineering instructor. This is a great chance to earn free cash for college if you plan on pursuing an Engineering major!
If A Student Wants To Leave An Academy for 2022-23
If an Academy student checked “No” on the Intent to Return roster in December, to indicate that he/she does not want to continue in the Academy next year, a Program of Choice Drop Form will be sent home for the student and a parent to sign. This form needs to be returned to confirm that the student would like to be removed from the Academy for the 2022-23 school year. If a student decides that they want to leave the Academy, but checked “yes” on the Intent to Return, they can email Mrs. Combs at Jaime.combs@stjohns.k12.fl.us to request a drop form.
If An Academy Student Is Zoned for Beachside HS for 2022-23
Students who will be zoned for Beachside High School in 2022-23 but are returning Nease Academy students can remain at Nease. These students will then be designated as out-of-zone Academy students. The St. Johns County School District does not guarantee transportation to students attending an out-of-zone school. Because transportation is not guaranteed to out-of-zone students in our district, families need to discuss whether they can provide transportation to students who are zoned for Beachside High School, if the district doesn’t provide bussing. As long as the student can provide transportation, keeps an Academy course on his/her schedule every year, and remains within Academy grade and behavioral guidelines, he/she can attend an out-of-zone school.
If you have any questions about the Communications Academy, Stellar Academy of Engineering, or Academy of Hospitality & Tourism, reach out to Academy Coordinator Jaime Combs, at Jaime.combs@stjohns.k12.fl.us

TEXTBOOKS AND MEDIA FINES –
I will be sending out media fines notices this weekend. If you receive an email notification indicating fines, PLEASE read through it carefully as it includes information and steps on paying fines online. If your student has any fines on his/her media account, PLEASE take care of these as soon as possible, ESPECIALLY SENIORS!

Students can also pay by cash or check upon our return from the break. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
A NEW ADDITION TO OUR MEDIA CENTER!
Last spring a family out in the Julington area generously and graciously donated a 200 gallon aquarium to our media center and we’ve been working to get it ready for quite some time. It is a freshwater tank and we are trying to make it a community tank, so we would like to open up the opportunity for students to donate 1 or 2 fish to the aquarium and leave a little “legacy” in our media center. Students should see me first BEFORE making any purchases so that we can discuss what kind of fish we should start off with. Parents, if any of you are familiar with running and maintaining a large freshwater aquarium, please reach out to me. I have NO experience with aquariums and would love to have some help and guidance! 😊
