Inaugural Computer Science Honor Society Induction

10/2/2023

On September 22, 2023, Mullen High School joined a limited number of schools in Colorado to have a Computer Science Honor Society on campus. We inducted our first group of students into the new Mullen Computer Science Honor Society during lunch in the Sister Brendan Memorial Garden. We have a total of 24 students who qualified this fall. While we are excited for this inaugural class, we expect tremendous grown each year moving forward.

Society leaders presented each new member with a certificate, a pin, and other society swag (and most importantly donuts). The members took the Society pledge together to solidify their membership in the society.

There are now only three other schools in the state maintaining their CS honor societies. (Rock Canyon, Fossil Ridge, & STEM School Highlands Ranch).
