My School's National Honor Society

I’m Amanda Koziol and I would like to formally introduce myself. I was originally born in Michigan, but due to my father’s job, my family relocated to Tennessee and Kansas for a total of nine years before returning to Michigan this summer. I have a sister that is currently twelve years old and is in seventh grade. I am exhilarated to be given the opportunity to be in the National Junior Honor Society.

Discussion: Mr. Payne said the technology millage allows us to leverage purchases such as these by having the infrastructure in place to support additional mobile devices. On any given day, we average 6,000-8,000 devices on our network; so without the proper infrastructure, we might have to turn down additional purchases that are funded via other sources. Mrs. Everly thanked Mr. Payne and his team in technology. There is an outstanding partnership between the curriculum and the technology departments.

Sheri L. Dew states that “True leaders understand that leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up.” Leadership, service, and character is and always will be very important to me which is why I believe I qualify and would be a beneficial member to the Valley Heights High School National Honors Society.

In order to maintain a membership in the National Honor Society, each individual must follow these principles and guidelines provided by the Belgrade High School National Honor Society. Consequently, in not doing so you will be removed from NHS.

It is my responsibility to make the right decisions and demonstrate how to take appropriate action when necessary. I also enjoy being someone my little brother can come to when he needs advice and I value his reliance in me. After school, I help him do his homework and provide encouragement to persist in meeting his goals. By paving footsteps for my little brother to follow, I display my ability to be an admirable

I’ve always had an interest in becoming a Doctor. Even as a young child. Unfortunately, I lost my grandpa January 23, 2016 to a Lung Disease. He and I had a great relationship. He inspired me to be the best that I can be. Through his battle with Lung disease, I saw how the Doctors cared for him in a special way. My father suffered from a stroke that nearly changed his life. Watching him progress and get treated from amazing Doctors opened my eyes. That’s when I realized becoming a Doctor would allow me to care for people the same way my loved ones were cared

Analyzing the list of ID numbers, I was absolutely ecstatic when mine popped up. I turned to my best friend, who had a smile as wide as mine, “We’re in!” we yelled, high-fiving and cheering our way down the hall. Being a part of the National Honor Society does not seem like a huge accomplishment to other people, however to me it was the absolute best feeling in the world. Growing up, I witnessed my older brother throw away most of his academic ability. He did not bother to study for his classes, he never once picked up a book, and he never even applied to be a part of this distinguished society despite my mom urging him to do so. Seeing this, I have strived to be the polar opposite of the average high school student the way my brother was. My grades have reflected exactly how hard I have worked, and I have constantly pushed myself to work harder because I would never want to jeopardize my spot in this program. Taking the leap and applying to National Honor Society and being inducted only gave me more confidence in myself and has shaped me to be a more organized student.

Throughout my high school career, I have been involved in various clubs and organizations to help me become a leader in my community. At Auburn High School I took on the role of being a Publicist officer for National Technical Honors Society the first two consecutive years that it became a part of our school. I gained a lot of leadership experience through this club. Implementing a new organization is never easy and takes a lot of hard work and dedication from the leaders of the club. By being a part of a very helpful, dedicated and motivated team, we helped affiliate all the eligible members into the club and in turn helped introduce this new club to the school. As publicist my role in helping the club grow was crucial; I helped in publicizing the clubs various projects and involvement.

First of all, I would like to thank you for taking me into consideration as a nominee for the National Honor Society of Coolidge High School

I believe that the National Honor Society should play a sizable role in the school community. The National Honor Society does an outstanding job commemorating students not just for academics, but also for leadership, characteristics, and service. Almost all other awards given at schools deal strictly with congratulating students for excellent academics, whereas top students of the National Honor Society excel in all of the criteria.

The National Honors Society (NHS) is a group in which leadership, teamwork, and motivation skills are all developed, among a collection of other characteristics through various service projects. Granted these are the benefits listed on the website and not known to me through personal experience, I am certain that being apart of NHS would be beneficial to my life in preparing to enter the real, independent world and head off to college within the next few years. As a soft-spoken scholar, NHS would provide a way for me to familiarize myself in a collaborative and teamwork-filled setting that could better prepare me for jobs, as well as it would teach me to be a leader, and push me into the world to help and think about others rather than just

One service project I am conducting was inspired by an issue that affects my family, as well as the family's of others students who attend my school, a virtual public school. Because of restrictions, student enrollment was denied to prior homeschooled and private school students. Seeing how my own brother was denied this opportunity, I decided to take action and rally for a solution this problem. Through research, I discovered B-894, a bill holding the potential to remove enrollment restrictions from our school.

I knew that I wanted to be a physician after my first summer of volunteering in the NICU and emergency room. I realized that I want to help people, which is why I continued to volunteer throughout various organization. I want to provide help for ill patients as well as those in good

On top of this, my parents always specifically looked up to me for being a leader in the house. The reason for this is, my parents knew very little English, and needed assistance with almost everything they would do. Also, I am the first child; the child that has to fall and learn from the mistakes without any older siblings advice or wisdom. Because of this, I make sure that once I learn the most efficient and effective ways of doing tasks, I then pass it down to my younger siblings. I make sure that they learn from my mistakes and accomplishments, while doing my best to lead them in the right direction to attain

Growing up as the oldest of twelve younger siblings, I was always the role model and the first one to do everything. I was the first one to go to Arizona State University, first to learn how to drive, first to succeed, and first to fail. Knowing the role I was born into at a young age, I knew I had to set the standards for my younger siblings to go by because I wanted them to have a better life than the one they have now and at the same time I wanted to be the person everybody can learn and seek advice from. Everything I did in life I tried to do it to the best of my abilities, even if I wasn’t good at it, I still went forward. For example, I wasn’t good at Brief Calculus initially and had to withdraw from the course, but the second time
