Summary: A Letter To The National Junior Honor Society

Upon receiving my letter for invitation to apply for the National Junior Honor Society came feelings of hard work pays off, and a bit of pride. I have worked very hard to maintain an all A average at Friendswood Junior High while taking some PAP classes as well as challenging myself with Latin. Having been told in a conference with a 5th grade teacher that I was not going to be an A student and that my parents and I needed to get used to that fact, sent me on a mission to be the best student I knew that I was capable of being, regardless of what any teacher thought.

My goal has been to be prepared and sometimes ahead of what’s coming, even if it has meant giving up some free time on evenings and the weekends. I have and continue to work hard to achieve my goals and take pride in my accomplishments thus far. I am never happy with something that is anything than less than my best effort. This applies across my academics and my favorite pastime of playing travel baseball.
I am trustworthy and responsible. If something is expected of me, I try my best to live up to the standards that are required and strive to do even better. I am true to my word and can be trusted to complete a task on time. I am not one to follow a crowd, but have made choices that are in my best interest and not necessarily what everyone else is doing. I enjoy being unique and known around FJH as funny, friendly and generally a happy guy. I feel that my character and personality are well suited for the NJHS
