Personal Statement: Therrell High School National Honor Society

First, I believe that my involvement with the National Junior Honor Society will help me to prepare my future as a leader. John Maxwell once said that “ a leader is one who knows the way,

am very proud to be a part of. The honor of being chosen (elected?) as its

I am interested in becoming a member of the National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) because it will help boost my leadership and social skills, character, citizenship, and help me to become a better scholar. These skills are important because they will help me learn to listen to other people’s ideas and share ideas with others. Also, NJHS will help me learn to lead and take charge, help my community, and maintain a good GPA to get into a great college. I am also interested in being a member of National Junior Honor Society because my sister was in it when she was in middle school and they did multiple interesting and productive projects, activities, and field trips.

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.

I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to pursue my love of performing arts in a safe, creative and accepting environment. Therefore, through my time and influence, I want to give back to my school and community. Every day I strive to share my positivity, humor and thoughtfulness with my peers. I would be excited to be able to help others with a group of like-minded people in the Performing Arts Academy’s National Honor Society. If inducted, I will be an extremely involved and necessary leader in the organization. I will use my strengths in leadership, conflict resolution and compassion to move the National Honor Society forward through scholarship and service.

Every successful leader is built upon the strongest foundations. A foundation that is a conglomerate of scholarship, leadership, service, and character ensures the optimal potential of an individual. The importance of these pillars is most apparent in National Honor Society. The scholarship of an individual sets them above the herd; however, their character, the force that drives them to achieve the impossible, is the mold that shapes the leader they’ll become. Furthermore, service opportunities not only open member's’ eyes to the compassion needed in leaders but also the skills in management, cooperation, and perseverance demanded from them in the community.

To be in National Honor society is an enormous accomplishment. I should be picked because I have copious skills that I can bring to the table. I am a great leader and I am very organized. I am a huge role model for girls who want to go into fields that typically only guys do. I am an honorary member of National Honor Society of High School Scholars which is impeccable. I already have 26 high school credits and 16 college credits. I have been in numerous different activities such as, soccer, volleyball, band, drama, VES kids chorus, ballet, tech club, and tae kwon do. I am a very strong student when it comes to grades and I also like a challenge. I am very creative and can come up with countless ideas on how to help the community. I love helping

I would like to become an active member of Carrboro High School National Honor Society, because I am looking forward to the opportunity to serve and improve the community with other like-minded students. I believe it is important to balance academics, athletics, and community service. For example, this year I am taking 5 AP classes, running cross-country and track, and have spent almost 150 hours volunteering in the community. The first time I volunteered was when I raised a diabetic alert dog with my family. Even though I was sad to see the dog I had raised go, it was a rewarding experience because I knew that the dog would help someone have a better life. Anytime I can find an opportunity to both improve myself and the community, I won’t hesitate to seize it. I found the opportunity to do just that at both Shodor and CHCCS Project Graduation.

It is my great honor to have been considered for National Honor Society. My grades, and character are of the utmost importance to me. My cumulative GPA is 3.747 as of the 2015-2016 school year. To be considered for National Honor Society, one must demonstrate qualities of leadership, scholarship, character, and service. By showing that I possess these qualities, I believe I would be a worthy member of Galion High School’s National Honor Society. It is highly valuable for me to be an excellent role model for my community, siblings, and peers. I am in multiple clubs including Key Club, Teen Green, and Student Council. In Student Council I have been elected as Class President. I plan to lead my class with honor, integrity, and responsibility to

Since I was a young boy, I have always been a leader in my community. My mom worked as a teacher, so when school let out, I normally would have to come to Person and wait for my mom to take me home. While waiting for her, I would roam around the school and help out however I was needed (although since I was so young, I could not really do much). Over the years, my sense of helpfulness continued to grow, and it began to show. However, I believe I hit my first (of many) high points during Teachers would ask me if I could help them out in an assortment of different events, ranging from helping to set up band concerts, or helping man a station during the Fall Festival. Also, I joined the National Junior Honor Society in my 6th grade year, and

My community has always been an important part of my life. I have actively served in my community through 4-H, and National Honor Society (NHS). I joined 4-H when I was 6 years old and since then I have served in many different ways. My 4-H club has local flower planters in town, and every week we take turns watering them. I have helped clean the road ditches in the surrounding areas to help out the environment. I have also delivered May Day baskets, Valentines, and gone Christmas caroling for the elders that live in the manner in my community. As one of the older members of my 4-H club, I think it is important to show the younger children that you should respect and help the elderly of your community. Through NHS, I have gone trick or treating

It is an honor to be chosen as a candidate for membership in the National Honor Society. Academics, leadership skills, service abilities, and character are four principal parts of a superior student. I believe that I am inclusive of all these aspects needed to become a part of this prestigious group. Becoming a member of this organization is important to me, because it will help me get into an excellent college and push me to work harder in school.

The National Honor Society is a prestigious organization that I have been looking forward to being part of since I started high school. I have the leadership qualities that are required to be part of this organization because I am involved in activities inside and outside of school. I have the ability to lead and assist with activities around and outside of school. With my leadership skills, I believe I will be able to make a major difference and contribution to National Honor Society. Leadership qualities are a natural part of my life.

In addition to scholarship, National Honor Society emphasizes community service. I have a passion for service and have been involved in service projects through my church, Dance Team, FFA and 4H. As I reflect on all of the community service events I have assisted in, I have realized that each time I have helped others, I have grown as a person. I have learned to be appreciative of all of the opportunities that my situation has provided for me. Leadership is yet another quality that National Honor Society builds. I have worked on developing my leadership skills through my participation in 4H, church youth group, FFA, and dance. I would like to gain more leadership experience by helping to organize the activities that National Honor Society has throughout the year. A positive character is recognized and developed by National Honor Society. I strive to always maintain a good character. I work hard and try to be a positive role model as a student, employee, volunteer, and friend. Character is important to me because of the leadership position I am put

I am qualified to be the president of this organization because I understand its purpose. I meet the GPA requirement with a 4.0 cumulative GPA. In addition, I am well acquainted with many of the faculty and staff of the Honors College including our potential advisor, Dr. Berger. On more than one occasion, I have represented Honors College Black Ambition on panels for incoming students as well as work directly with Dr. Hoefer on recruiting incoming students at events such as the Spring Preview and Celebration of
