Being a member of Best Buddies and SAVE, I demonstrate a strong sense of dedication for supporting others and lending a helping hand. The goals of both Best Buddies and SAVE are to further acceptance, embrace diversity, promote safety in schools, and spreading positive energy. As a student representative, my sole objective would be to help enlighten the school board and those in the community about the daily life at MHS, advocate for the 1,600 students currently attending, and respectively relay any helpful amendments that would benefit the Mukwonago Area School District. The multiple clubs I participate in and the copious amounts of friendships I developed with people that have contrasting passions also allow me to speak on behalf of a relatively large group of students. The students taking part in the same activities that I belong to range from freshman to seniors. The opinions of a freshman compared to that of a senior’s may vary drastically, and being a part of clubs with a sample of each year will give me an advantage to hear an assortment of…
I believe that I can bring great leadership and character to the table. I care deeply about my education and I also push myself to work hard in all my AP and honor classes.

Becoming a Member of NHS would grant me the chance to contribute all the qualities above and help others. Along with dedication and leadership I show responsibility, respectfulness, motivation,…
Student organizations and associations aren't just about looking good to a prospective employer. Participation can benefit students as well, both emotionally and socially.

In this community there are a growing percentage of high school students who are dropping out. There are many reasons for this alarming trend in our community some being economical and others are based on the socioeconomic status of the population in general. Due to the depressed economy, many local companies are moving to other areas in an attempt to maintain competitive economic incentives for employees. When this happens, property taxes which support funding for high school programs has diminished in the last few years, resulting in the loss of qualified teachers and no funds to hire new positions. This has in turned left high school students feeling lost and hopeless with no hope of having a better quality of life. This is where the proposal for the organization I will be directing comes in.…
Our National Health Service is one of the most precious institutions we have. We all know it, because all of us have been touched by it. I will never forget the care my son Ivan received and the inspirational people who helped Sam and me through some of the most difficult times. The consultants, the community nurses, the care team – every one of them became part of our lives. When you have experienced support and dedicated professional care like that, you know just how incredibly special the NHS is.…
I am honored to be considered for membership in the National Honors Society (NHS). As I have become more acquainted with NHS, I have become more excited to be a part of this organization. I believe the NHS has a significant, positive impact on our communities and being apart of this is important to me. If I am privileged to be admitted to NHS, I believe that I will be able to make a notable contribution.…
Forget Trip Advisor, now HOSPITALS are asking whether we'd recommend them to family and friends…
After being a part of Key Club throughout my high school years, I learned how to give back to the community that has raised me and the conspicuous impact I can have in someone’s life simply through volunteering. Through Key Club, I help create service projects with local organizations and give members of our club an opportunity to volunteer and give back. One experience I will never forget is helping set up a blood drive in school with one of our local organizations, Bloodworks Northwest, a local blood bank that helps saves lives through research, innovation and education in blood. Our Key Club had to inform the school of the event that was happening, and encourage students to donate blood. It required hours of creating posters, informing the…
Being accepted as a member of National Honors Society is a magnificent accomplishment for anyone to whom it is granted. I do everything in my capacity to be the absolute best that i am able to be. National Honors Society is a step further towards this goal, which is one reason as to why i want to join NHS. An additional reason is: joining a prestigious society such as National Honors society would be beneficial in distinguishing me amongst other applicants for college.…
2 and guide them toward opportunities that will allow them to thrive, and to make their own difference. I assist students and teachers to make their lives easier. We have done almost all of the events in Southampton, from September Fest, Maureen's Havens to Family Fun Day and Raking elderly people's lawn. Through this organization I learned what it means to be a leader and essentially a teacher.…
I am very honored of being eligible to become a member of the National Honors Society, becoming a member of the NHS has been one of my major goals throughout my highschool career. It would be a great privilege to represent the NHS as a student with scholarship, leadership, service and character. I believe that as a student I represent these Four Pillars. For instance scholarship represents the hard work that as a student you put into your academics, but to me academics is something that I care much about and take very seriously. I always put effort towards my work by always being responsible and challenging myself to improve in what I have difficulty with. Academics isn’t just simply earning good grades but it is a way that I can improve…
I created the Humanitarian Club to promote global issues in my school and also to promote Special Education inclusion. After drafting a proposal, I went through my school's principal and got approval to submit it to the school board. My club got approved by the school board and ever since then, we've made a huge impact on the community. Last year we made 118 Operation Christmas boxes that were sent around the world. Some other projects include promoting inclusion with our Special Ed children by participating in Special Olympics sporting events, philanthropy work for community improvements such as a much needed guardrail to prevent more deaths, and animal welfare events to promote spaying and neutering. The club has benefited the Special Education…
The National Honors Society is more than just a honor roll, but an organization that recognizes the efforts made by hard working high school students. I would like to join National Honors Society because it would challenge my development in both my community and my school. The National Honors Society, consisting of over one million students, would make me a part of a large community that could create many opportunities for me in the future. A highly respected organization such as the National Honors Society is very significant to me. The scholarships and programs offered by this organization helps increase my ability to get the education that I desire that I might not have been able to receive due to the rapidly rising costs of college. Every…
I have been active in my community throughout my entire life, but before high school, I hadn’t realized how integrated community service was in my life. It is such an integral part of my life, and I honestly didn’t know that it was not something everybody just did. I hope to continue working as a volunteer on my campus or in the local community. I have also been a role model and leader in my school. I have been actively involved in many clubs and organizations. As a member of the NHS I have had the opportunity to raise money to give back to the community. I do better in school when I push myself and stay busy. I realize that I struggle to stay motivated when class work is too easy, or when I have too much free time. I found that more difficult…
The school itself, on its own, stands to have a good heart. From fundraiser to fundraiser, this school raises thousands of dollars every year for some kind of foundation. Most recently, the school raised money from “Daffodil Days.” All the money that came from this event went to cancer research; this showed others people care about their kin that are affected. The school continues to show how compassionate it is with the discussions and…
