Personal Narrative: National Honors Society

Simply being invited to become a member of the National Honor Society is a privilege. It’s not necessarily surprising to me that I was invited but rather gives me an exhilarating feeling. A part of me now knows that my sedulous efforts have finally paid off. Throughout my high school career so far I’ve exhibited the four pillars, which are scholarship, leadership, character, and service. This organization administers a plethora of opportunities that has an impact on the students and the lives of others especially. To be accepted into the National Honor Society would motivate me to contribute even more to not only our school but also the community.

National Honor Society is a great opportunity for me to give back to the community. I am Marcel Kas and I am currently a sophomore (2016-2017). I was the president of NJHS in middle school (2014-2015). Through my first two years of high school I have been able to take honors and AP courses allowing me to have a GPA of 4.143. I am also involved in many after school activities. I am currently a part of the tennis team, German National Honor Society, and the Greenfield High School marching band. I also volunteer my time to my community. I always volunteer for Polish cultural events like Polish Fest, I volunteer at church by being a lector and by helping out the priest every Friday and Sunday by being an altar boy, I am in a choir, I babysit,

I believe that my involvement in the National Junior Honors Society could change my future significantly. It is an outstanding opportunity to develop many skills that can be used in high school, college, and my future career. It will improve my leadership abilities, oral skills, and will give me the chance to work with many other people. I understand how prestigious this program is and I am prepared to be a member of this very beneficial organization.

During my two last years of high school, i've been in contact with a lot of colleges and universities. Many of which don’t get my attention. Throughout my whole high school years, there was only one college that i wanted to go to, Liberty University. I have heard so many wonderful things about Liberty and what i loved the most was that it was a christian school. Liberty had the number one thing that i am looking for in a college, that is a christian school, but many of my other things that i look for in a college where just not there. I used to live in Florida approximately 11 years ago and let me tell you, it's hard not to miss the sunshine state. Liberty is in Virginia, a state where it doesn't feel like home. When i received a brochure

I see the National Honors Society as a volunteering and discussion opportunity with other diligent students that brings out leadership and encourages service. The one thing I am looking forward to above all others if I am selected to this group is the great privilege it will be to surround myself with other enthusiastic students. Since NHS is a group of motivated individuals I think we really need to push the students who are accepted to achieve even more than they already are and I hope I can become a member that is able to bring together the student body in order to set and achieve greater more ambitious goals within Pioneer High School and the Ann Arbor Community.

As I mentioned before during my high school Junior and Senior years I was a member of the National Honors Society, in order to be invited certain requirements had to be meet by a student. Requirements such as a certain GPA, 3 teacher recommendation, essays and community involvement etc. luckily I meant those requirements and I was inducted into the Society. During my time with the Society I had the opportunity to be involved with many activities around the school and outside as well. One of our first activities at the Greensboro Interactive Resource Center where we helped out by painting benches, organize donated clothes and heling out with the outside garden. We also sold Krispy Kreme Doughnuts around the school for a fund raiser, volunteered

The four pillars of National Honors Society are fundamental for preparing for a successful college career. Every college application I have worked on has asked me about my leadership, service, educational experience, and my character. Being in National Honors Society has kept those principles grounded in my high school career. It has pushed me to take more difficult classes that I would not have usually chosen in order to maintain the necessary G.P.A. I have also participated in multiple service projects that had life changing impacts (more on this in the following essay). My involvement in National Honors Society has opened many leadership positions up for me, like Student Council and leading within National Honors Society projects.

First of all, I am honored to be considered for a spot in National Honors Society. Many people wouldn’t believe that I would even be considered, so this means a lot to me. I would like to believe that I deserve this position because of my hard work and dedication to my academics. If I am accepted into National Honors Society, I hope I learn to become a better leader, role model, and person in general. I would work hard, be a leader, and focus on making the best future for myself. I am very dedicated to in the groups I participate in, including, sports, my job, and extracurricular activities. I believe the service we do can help improve one’s ideas for achieving goals. In the society, I hope to improve my knowledge in every way possible. I

Receiving the recognition as a qualifying candidate for National Honors Society gives me great esteem in accomplishment. This translates to me knowing that my hard work has paid off and one of my first steps in the leadership of this community as well as larger roles can be pursued. I believe that my time as a National Honors Society student of Carteret High School can be trusted for the benefit of our society because I have proven to possess the qualities of good character, leadership, service, and scholarship. My time awaits to provide our community with the leadership it needs while at the same time leaving an example of a great student for everyone to reflect on for the betterment of themselves.

It is an honor to be considered for membership for the National Honor Society. The service that I have done throughout my high school career will benefit me later in life. If I get accepted I will do more service with the school, classmates, and community. So far, I have joined Band and am part of the News Crew.

Qualifying for National Honors Society is a great honor and is the apotheosis of my highschool career. As a highschool student in arduous honors classes, I am faced with challenges on a daily basis that might discourage me from achieving my goals in life. Because high school can be rigorous and stressful at times, I have realized how these hindrances should be the reason for me to persevere towards greatness and to learn who I truly am. A National Honor Society member showcases leadership, service, exemplifies positive character, and an outstanding academic excellence at the same time. I believe that I display these characteristics, and would be an asset to the organization .

I am a member of National Honor Society. We volunteer and help people in anyway we can. So far I have about 20 hrs of community service. I helped my teacher moved everything in his class during the summer. I helped an old woman raked leaves in her backyard. I volunteered to assist my high school's registration. I lend a hand to elementary school children and basically played and watched them. I assisted a youth wrestling tournament. There are many more services in which I hoped to help out.

Being chosen by my teachers and other leaders to be a candidate for membership in the National Honor Society is a great honor for me. It means I have achieved my goal of demonstrating my determination and willingness to help people and serve the community. I believe I will be a good member because I am hardworking, reliable, and trustworthy. Community Service to me means I am doing my part to help the people and animals in need. Like walking the dogs at the Humane Society, bringing therapy animals to the Assisted Living, and helping with saxophone lessons.

The National Honors Society is a remarkable and sensational opportunity for myself to take. I know that I should be in the Honors Society to better my future in education. When I think of my character, leadership, and service in the community I know it can be improved upon, but I do see the value I have developed in those traits over my lifetime. I believe that the Nation Honors Society should take me in and display its various favorable opportunities towards myself because of my growing, thriving traits.

Being in National Honors Society is something that I have always wanted to be apart of since I was in primary school. Being in it my 8th grade year was very inspiring on helping me build my citizenship goals, which later helped me get a job and be a good role model to others. 8th grade year being in NHS we had many important task to fulfill. Setting up majority of the school dances and rewarding students for their positive outlooks along with their uplifting attitudes. Leaving middle school, becoming a freshman, I knew I wanted to be a lifelong member with NHS. Knowing I had to work hard during my years in high school to get accepted back into NHS my junior year was a high school goal. When I received the letter stating I would be representing
