NJROTC Reflective Report
During high school, I committed most of my free time to my NJROTC unit and my 4-H club. In both of these organizations, community service, leadership, citizenship, and initiative are indispensable values that are essential to their functioning, and I like to think I have learned to embody these traits. In 4-H, I have attended, and then went on to teach, numerous leadership and group trainings. In NJROTC, I attended the Area 5 Leadership Academy, graduated as the Second Honor Cadet of the 2014 Academy, and was selected to be an Aide for the 2015 Academy. I held, or currently hold, leadership positions in both organizations and I feel I set a good example for my peers and subordinates. Through any task, I am enthusiastic about my job and

    Statement Of Purpose: Marine Corps JROTC Program

    The first thought of what a leader is calls to mind the great leaders the world has seen in the past; for example, Aung San Suu Kyi is a prime example of a leader who literally gave up her own freedom to oppose military rule in Burma, or Myanmar, in order to gain a democratic rule. She, along with many other outstanding leaders are the people young leaders of today look up to which includes myself. Throughout high school I have a wonderful opportunity to participate in my school’s Marine Corps JROTC program which focuses on Leadership Education and preparing young leaders for the future. In my fourth year of high school, I have the greatest opportunity I have ever been offered before by being the MCJROTC program’s Cadet Commanding Officer.…

    American Legion: Personal Statement Of Purpose

    Last summer, I endeavored a life changing experience. American Legion Buckeye Boys State is a leadership program. It is the best Boys State program in the nation. On top of this, it is among the top programs for leadership, growth, and is a meeting of the greatest minds of Ohio, and by proxy, of the nation. But it’s so much more than that. From Day One, the minute you step off the bus, it instantly becomes an incredible experience. Everyone, people who have never even met before, are shaking everyone else’s hands, introducing themselves, and campaigning for positions before anyone has even dropped their luggage off. It was breathtaking, truly, and it made me realize that I too had to step up. Naturally, I did just that. I started meeting people,…

    SOWK 2201 Reflective Report

    Throughout the twelve lessons of SOWK 2201, there were three crucial aspects of working with children and youth that were new to me. Beginning from lesson 5 (relationships), I learnt how to use the Rogerian method, which was created by Carl Rogers. I learnt that the Rogerian model can be applied on all three levels: child-family, child-worker, and child-community. The model requires us to respect the child, be honest in word and action, and empathize with the child’s narrative. Another aspects that was new to me came from lesson 7, targeting the AHA method. Before this course began I was not informed of the AHA method. Nevertheless, I am now aware that the AHA method was used in our everyday lives without us knowing it. It reminds us to be…

    American Legion Leadership Essay

    “The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.” Ronald Reagan’s words provide me with a vision and the motivation to serve others by equipping them with the tools needed to reach their full potential. I have always worked hard as a leader to inspire others. I understand that I must be bold enough to have my own vision but humble enough to recognize achieving it will take the efforts of many people. I believe that we must work to together to keep America strong and ensure freedom for future generations, and I believe this is done through great leaders. The American Legion Auxiliary Girls State provides young women like me a deeper understanding…

    Servant Leadership Application Essay

    Throughout high school I have been blessed with the opportunity to experience positions of leadership. As taking roles as both a follower and a leader in democratic groups such as football, student council, and especially marching band I have learned the significance and dedication of servant-leadership. I am honored to have been given the position to be drum major during my junior and senior so I could strive to enrich the extraordinary experiences music has to offer to fellow peers. Through an attitude of servant-leadership, perseverance and passion I have been privileged. Hence, I dedicated and invested myself in a program that has blessed me with several breath-taking experiences that opened my eyes to a new perspective on the world and on what my destiny holds.…

    Red Cross Club Impact On Society

    I asked myself, “what can I do to make an impact on my community?”. That is when I founded my high school’s Red Cross Club. We aimed to push the vision-mission, “to alleviate human suffering through volunteering and donations” to the student body to make a change in our community. I initially started with only three other members, however, we bolstered our ranks by over 20+ members in two weeks. Balancing 7 AP and PreAP classes, such as Biology and US History, proved to be a challenge for management of the club. Keeping up with extracurriculars was not always easy however, I always made time to supervise my club. Being a leader at times was very frustrating, but overall it was a very positive experience. While I did slave for the club, it never felt like work to me because I felt very passionate helping others. The Red Cross Club became my medium for making a positive impression on my environment. Through the cooperation of my school’s class officers and my own members, we did donations like can drives around Thanksgiving to help soften the burden of low income families in inner Houston. In addition, with collaboration with Student Council, we fundraised and donated to sponsor underprivileged children during Christmas. Being a part of this club has made a positive impact on my life to be great. My experiences at the club made me develop a strong work ethic, and useful leadership experience to be used in…

    National Honor Society Speeches

    Due to my willingness to confront injustice and take action, others describe me as a confident leader. For the past two years I have seen the emotional struggle that hundreds of families have faced through my work at the Ronald McDonald House. Because of this, I have dedicated my time to preparing and serving them dinner on a monthly basis. While working at the House, my peers noticed my willingness to do any task that needed to be done because I was confident in my ability to learn something new, no matter how difficult it may be. Because of this, I was chosen to be the co-leader of the project. It is easy to say that my confidence has given me the ability to support the causes I believe in through both service and…

    My NJROTC Experience

    Have you ever tried to rush something and now you wish you could go back and do it again? I never thought I would say this but I wish I could go back to my Naval Junior Reserves Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) High school days. I underestimated those days, and now I wish it could return. I miss riding the “Big Cheese” (bus) three to four hours, the long hours of practice, the “monkey suit”(uniform), the grass parties (lots of exercise that hurt), the long lectures filled with yelling Help us sir” every time we did something wrong, motivating others, telling people not to quit because if they do they fail the team, the eight- nine minute routines, the attitudes , the ten minute inspection, feeling sick until the whole competition is over, the seventy curl ups and 30 push ups, the last “Oorah” before the final routine, having my best friend beside me through everything……

    Pursuing Lifetime Goals

    Now fast forwarding to now the year of 2014, as a senior I believe I have accomplished a lot that might help achieve my lifetime goal. The experience of being in school clubs such as National Honor Society, Science National Honor Society, Health Students Occupations of America, and Leadership Experience Opportunity has taught me a lot about time management. As I had to manage time in order to balance schoolwork, community service, and my time into a nonprofit organization called Lend a Hand VYO. Although I had trouble with juggling time which is a problem for Asians, I manage to get through with keeping up with my grades and being in so many organizations. My mentors that have been a part of the prestigious organizations continuously remind me of its influence due to the emphasis the organization places on education and helping the community. Learning from their experience, I decided to take initiative by placing a higher priority on my education, and helping out Houston community and communities abroad in rural…

    Officer Application Essay

    My name is Kaleigh Gonzales I’m a 15 year old sophomore and I’m running for the 2014-2015 officer position of reporter for Armwood High Schools FFA Chapter. I feel I should be selected for this position because not only am I a people person but I am also extremely organized. I think this would make me be able to effectively and efficiently get the Armwood FFA’s chapter name known to the public. I would also try to do this by doing any and all public service projects we can get our hands on, then publishing our successes. I believe that to make a difference you have to be known and respected by the community around you. In the past three years I have served as Vice President for Burnett Middle School for two terms and Treasurer for Armwood high school for one term. In this time I’ve competed many events including forestry, land judging, vet assisting, OCC, creed speaking, and extemporaneous public speaking. By doing this I’ve gained lots of experience and love in our great organization. I believe to be this year’s reporter I have to not only work on our clubs public media aspects but also work hard in competitions to win and better our chapters’ reputation. If I were to describe the technique in which I lead I would have to say that I plan , I tell others my plan , and then I depend on my team to help me. They tell me where they specialize in and what they want to do for me, and we work form there. I try to let people do what makes them happy while still helping me. I can make a personal promise that I will always work my hardest to make FFA my top priority, a position like this requires my full attention. My other activity I engage in is that I am a First sergeant of alpha company in JROTC, this means I am the second in command of one of three company’s in our schools only JROTC battalion. I promise that my responsibilities there will not interfere with my responsibilities regarding FFA. Some activities I want to do this year are competitions like OCC and…

    Personal Narrative: Roller Skating Classes

    Through my assistant job at the library I have learned to work with a staff to plan events for kids during the summer. I learned that planning is not easy and there are many administrative hoops that you have to jump through in order to plan a successful event. I have been teaching roller skating to kids in the community for about four years now and this experience has taught me to work with people all ages and has given me a chance to develop leadership skills. I have learned to be an empathetic leader, by helping them learn and grow from their mistakes and providing emotional support. Spearheading this class was no walk in the park. This experience put my leadership abilities, patience, and positivity to the test; however, I am proud to say that I have taught over four hundred students how to roller skate proficiently over these past 4 years. Being a roller skating instructor has really shaped my qualities and values I have now. These leadership qualities and skills I have gained from my experience of being a roller skating instructor are transferrable to my ability to be a good RA. I know that this job will help me continue to improve my leadership skills and allow me to learn from my residents, co-workers and supervisors. At last, being a crew leader has given me the chance to be a mentor and a leader, guiding the freshmen to discover what it takes to be…

    I have always prided myself as being hard working, responsible, and committed to every endeavor I pursue.

In my junior year, I was invited to participate in the National Student Leadership Conference, was inducted into the Asterean Chapter of the National Honors Society, and inducted into the Business and Marketing Honors Society of New York State. I have also been given the 3R's Award, presented to me by my high school, for recognition of "Outstanding Reason, Respect and Responsibility." I am an active member of student government, as well as an officer for several clubs and extracurricular activities. Since my freshman year, I have been a cheerleader at my high school. I have participated in both Sports Night and Pep Rally Night Dance teams, of which I was captain. Being a dancer for 11 years, it was gratifying to know that I had been given the opportunity in my school environment to share this passion with my peers.…
