Eta Epsilon Chapter Activities
We are very proud of how active our chapter is and we have been recognized for our efforts with several awards! Our chapter was awarded the Outstanding Regional Chapter Award after only one year of establishing the Eta Epsilon Chapter. Read the article.
More recently, we were recognized at the Phi Beta Delta annual conference for winning the annual award for the Midwest Region and the Eileen Evans Overall Outstanding Chapter Award, named after the former Executive Director of Phi Beta Delta (2004). The Eileen Evans Outstanding Chapter Award is given each year to the chapter that has most notably demonstrated qualities such as growth and development, expanded outreach within and beyond the academic community, and service to Phi Beta Delta.

Tonya Hamer, a Spanish teacher at MHS, and Scott Sullivan, Principal, deserve our thanks for allowing us to meet with the students. 聽It went extremely well with lots of questions from the students and they were, indeed, quite interested in the presentations.
