Four Pillars Of National Honor Society
National Honor Society is based on four pillars: scholarship, service, leadership, and character. I have already achieved the scholarship portion due to my hard work in the classroom and I believe that I would benefit NHS in each of three remaining pillars due to my willingness to work, ability to make good decisions and encourage others, and responsibility.

    Overcoming Obstacles In National Honor Society

    “The hardest obstacle to overcome in any leadership position is getting past the apathy to get people involved in the process to get things done…The greatest enemy to accomplishment is apathy” (Burke). National Honor Society upholds its members to have 4 important values. These being scholarship, character, leadership, and service. Leadership, in my opinion, is a very important aspect in National Honors Society because you are expected to be a role model by positively inspiring people around you. This quote stuck out because it says that inspiring people is a way to overcome obstacles in leadership. If you inspire people and make them get rid of their apathy, you can overcome stalling in the process and reach accomplishment.…

    Leadership and National Honor Society

    A person of character is, someone to admire, who sets a good example, who knows the difference between right and wrong. To me no one is good or bad. This is a fact that should be kept in mind when we try to judge a person's overall character. We are all different and complex. I think I show most of the elements a person of good character should show. Not only have I been looked up to and admired, but I try to keep as active as possible (a quality younger students may look up to). Joining different sports, excelling in academics, and joining other extracurricular activities, gives me this opportunity and also demonstrates my reliability. Like a person with a good character I like to help anyone that is in need of a little guidance. I've always been known to make people laugh or feel better when they are down, which seems to me like a person with a great character, and want to better life's sometimes harsh obstacles.…

    I am worth your time and I am capable of great things, I have potential. What I love doing most of my free time is volunteering, so I feel as if I would be willing to give an adequate amount of help to my community. I have done plenty of volunteer service throughout my past four years of high school. I have always loved helping, but I never completely realized this until my junior year, when I got accepted into National Honor Society. National Honor Society is a community service project club which I am honored to be in. Every month we at least do two hours of individual community projects, plus a group project. Even though we have a specific amount we are supposed to complete each year, I love to do more, because it is something that brings…
