NHS Christmas Dance
Since 1997, Xavier’s National Honor Society (NHS) has put on the school’s annual WPA Christmas Dance. In the midst of preparing for finals, it is a way for students to relax, have fun with friends, and join in celebrating the Christmas spirit. This year marked the first year Xavier’s NHS has judged an official contest for multiple categories. Below is a glimpse of the festivities and dancing that took place last Saturday.

The planning for this dance began in October with committees working on decorating, music, and publicity. The donated food items collected for admission will go to St. John of the Cross Catholic Worker House. The DJ company was Sky Blue and the DJs were senior Drew Distler and former student Noah Rickertson. In addition to organizing the Christmas Dance, NHS is responsible for helping out with conferences and will be completeing a service project in the spring.
