Alyzabeth attended her honor society induction ceremony (she could have gone in last year but was unable to attend). It was a nice ceremony, repeating their commitment to support the Spanish language, they called out each name, lit a candle and answered a few questions. A nice, simple ceremony with the officers presenting and the FIHS Principal shaking each student's hand in congratulations.
The mission of the Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica is to recognize high school achievement in Spanish and Portuguese and to promote interest in Hispanic and Luso-Brazilian studies.
The FIHS society name: Isabel Angélica Allende Llona:
Allende has been called "the world's most widely read Spanish-language author. In 2004, Allende was inducted into the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and in 2010, she received Chile's National Literature Prize. President Barack Obama awarded her the 2014 Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Allende's novels are often based upon her personal experience and historical events and pay homage to the lives of women, while weaving together elements of myth and realism. She has lectured and toured U.S. colleges to teach literature. Fluent in English, Allende was granted United States citizenship in 1993, having lived in California since 1989.
