Reflection On The National Honors Society And Accomplishment
I have collaborated with my fellow students in the National Honors Society to make a true difference in our community. We have come together many times as a group to form fundraisers and support charity events. It would not have had the same effect if I was the only one participating. Each member had a special purpose in making each event meaningful. The largest accomplishment I have witnessed while in the NHS was the food drive we did for a local food bank. We got the entire school involved and had students bringing in many varieties of food every day. We collected hundreds of cans of food and filled the back of a delivery truck entirely. We came together as an association and gave food to those less fortunate than ourselves. It was an astonishing

    There are many accomplishments in my life of which I am proud, however there are two for which I am especially proud. Those being, having the opportunity to play varsity shortstop in high school, and having good enough grades to be nominated for, and to be admitted into, the National Honor Society. These accomplishments make me proud because they are goals that I was able to set and accomplish for myself. These are successes that not everyone can say that they have achieved.…

    A member of such a society based on character, scholarship and leadership is one who can demonstrate these three tasks in their everyday lives. The ease of maintaining a balanced schedule whilst also upholding these characteristics may not be the simplest of tasks at times, even for the best students, although the drive to strive for this essence sets individuals apart from the majority. I believe that in my everyday life, I demonstrate these ideals and would heartily enjoy guiding others in them. To be exercise any of these qualities requires one’s own desire, a desire which I not only try to instill into myself, but into others as well. Being part of the National Honor Society would not only be an honor in and of itself, but an honor which is able to transcend its membership and let a person such as myself try to better the school, town, and familial communities by doing good in each of them.…

    The four pillars of National Honors Society, scholarship, service, leadership, and character, have paved a path for me as a student and as a person. Scholarship has taught me to strive to be the best student I can be. I use scholarship to keep up with my school work and never give up when a class is hard. I always strive for the best grade I can get and I will stop at nothing until I reach my goal. I will continue to use scholarship as I go to college and pursue my dream as a pediatric dentist. I will study, I will learn, and I will never give up no matter what happens along the way. I use service when I volunteered to help my local private school. I was never asked to do so, but I felt as if I was giving back to a school that had done so much…

    The pillar of scholarship has influenced me since before I was inducted into the National Honor Society. From this pillar I adopted the attitude that every aspect of academics and knowledge requires the full devotion of myself and my time. I have learned that the true value of the pillar of scholarship is to educate individuals of the capabilities and success that only continuous education can provide.…

    The four characteristics of National Honor Society are service, scholarship, character and leadership. It is important to have a good character, maintain high grades, volunteer and lead. The reason why it is so important is because I am a role model. Other people look up to me to be a good example. I have expressed being a good role model in my life. Whether it is when I am with my younger sisters, babysitting other people’s kids, at track meets, or JROTC I am sure to be a good example and represent my family, school, and country.

    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 would be highly honored if I were to be accepted into NHS. When I heard of National Honor Society I knew right away that I wanted to become a part of it. Ever since I was a young child, I remember seeing my friends and family members proudly receive awards and recognitions for their hard work because of this, I too wanted to be like them. I am a very hard-working student and I love to gain knowledge of new things every day, and even though neither of my parents had the privilege to receive an education, I hope to go to college. Most of my family members from my father's side of the family either dropped out or weren’t able to finish school, so I will be the first to finish high school and to attend college.…

    All throughout school I have participated in many clubs and organizations that have not only molded me as a person, but have helped me to develop responsibility, and leadership skills. Currently I am an active member of National Honor Society, and DECA. Both of these organizations, provided by my high school, encourage leadership, volunteer work, and have high expectations for behavior, and grades. Being in National Honor Society has shown me to continually do for others in need. There are always opportunities to get involved with the community, and even create drives for things like stuffed animals, and blankets for children who are sick in the hospital, and “Care Catties” for cancer patients, which include tissues, water bottles, hard candy, and lotion. DECA is another organization I am involved in at Frenship High School. DECA is a business organization for high school marketing students looking to learn, develop and compete in a competitive event. I have been a member since my sophomore…

    The opportunity I got during the “Reach One Each One Scholar Program” at my local high school was incredible. The program was developed for students who did not meet the requirements for honor roll during a given marking period. Students who have a continuous record for obtaining honor roll can choose to select one of those individuals to help them improve their academic record to achieve honor roll the following marking period. I got to witness an individual strive for goals they would not have normally been able to achieve alone without the help of others supporting him. This is important to me because I strongly support leadership and teamwork. A leader is only as good as the trail he leaves behind on his followers. Everyone needs help at…

    Also within my community, I organized a Rouge River Rescue cleanup project. There is a small creek in the commons area of our neighborhood that needed a serious cleanup. I recruited a group of my peers and sent out flyers to all the houses in our subdivision. When the day came to clean up the creek, the turnout of people who came to help was astounding! I consider myself a leader; I saw a problem and found a solution.…
