What is Kitty Hawk Air Society?
KHAS is the academic honor society of AFJROTC that promotes high academic standards, school and community service, self-confidence, and initiative. KHAS also develops leadership abilities, recognizes academic excellence, and furthers members' knowledge of the Air Force role on aerospace. During the academic year of 1971-72, AFJROTC NC-023 initiated a Junior ROTC Air Society to further academic achievement, LT Col E.H. Cryer, Senior Aerospace Science Instructor, noted a need for a cadet organization to function as a club within the high school activities program. Lt Col Cryer designed the Constitution for the high school level organization in such aa way that it would be an academic society with the following board objectives:
- An incentive for academic excellence
- Develop an interest in a college education
- A means for cadets to participate as a club in school activities
- To provide additional areas for leadership experiences and development
In order to uphold these constitutional objectives, we hold tutorials every Wednesday to allow KHAS members to have the opportunity to lead other into academic greatness and also provide help to those who need it. We also help out our community with service projects and volunteer work such as campus beautification. This is an event where KHAS walks around the Tivy campus and picks up trash to restore the natural beauty of the surrounding area.
