NHS Personal Statement If I am accepted into National Honor Society, I believe I can make a lasting positive impact on the organization. With my academic aptitude, strong work ethic, and positive attitude, I know I can greatly benefit both the society and others outside of the society. Firstly, as my academic record shows, I am extremely motivated to do well and achieve good grades.
I am deeply honored and humbled to be among the brilliant and best students who are being considered for the NHS. I have been looking forward to this opportunity since I was accepted at Brophy. I know that National Honor Society does great things in our world today. I was a part of National Junior Honor Society at Saint Theresa Catholic School and that that has had a huge impact on the person I am today. I believe that I exemplify the four pillars of National Honors Society, those being character, scholarship, leadership, and service.
It would be an honor to join the NHS. The National Honor Society is a notable organization that promotes high school students who reflect academic excellence, leadership, service, and character. Joining the NHS demonstrates to colleges, businesses, and the community that someone is serious about their education and making a difference in their community. I am a suitable candidate for the NHS because I demonstrate the qualities that the organization values and I am committed to use my abilities and skills for the success and growth of the community around us. I meet the academic requirements for the NHS membership as I currently have a 4.5 GPA for my first semester of high school.
The National Honor Society consists of a reputable group of students that are involved in many other activities and hold themselves to the utmost standards. It is an honor to be apart of a wonderful collection of students that give their all. As all members of the NHS will attest, this organization makes their four pillars well-known and expects all students to work towards bettering themselves in those areas. Scholarship, service, leadership, and character are the pillars that the NHS built themselves upon.
National Honor Society is an organization that gives unrecognized students who are talented a chance to show their achievements. I see this program being very helpful to students, including myself, because it highlights our academic and personal accomplishments and provides many opportunities to those who deserve them. I believe the National Honor Society program represents outstanding high school students to colleges in hopes for them to forward their education and become successful. This would be useful to those who cannot afford to enroll in prestigious schools or organizations.
It is a great honor to be nominated as a member of the National Honor Society. There are many reasons why I want to take part in NHS. One reason why I want to be in it is to continue to grow academically with people who have the same goals as me. I want to be encouraged, not discouraged by the people around me. If I get into NHS, it will give me a lot of opportunities to be a leader.
National Honor society was established to recognize outstanding high school students. National Honor society recognizes students who have demonstrated excellence in the areas of academic success, leadership, character and service. I should be in National Honor Society because I think I represent a lot of the qualities needed to be in this organization. Throughout my years in high school, I have been very involved in the band program here at Langham Creek. As a freshman, I started out in Concert 2 band.
What I see as the function of the National Honor Society is to encourage young adults like myself to participate more within their school and community. It allows students the ability to give and serve other people that have done so for them. This group will give many students an eye opening experience on volunteering for fellow citizens. If I were to be selected into the National Honor Society, I would contribute to the group by sharing ideas and giving useful feedback to the other students in the group. I would also provide personal experiences of certain voluntary services that I have completed, if needed.
I sometimes close my eyes and think back to all the times in my life where I achieved a goal that I didn’t think was possible: from my first bike ride, to my first time on horseback; from performing in my first dance recital, to competing in my first rodeo; from getting chosen to perform that ballet solo, to being elected class officer; from earning that A in my first college class, to being inducted into the National Honor Society. When I take a moment and remember all the successes that shaped the person I am today, I cannot imagine reaching any of these achievements without the people who helped me along the way. Growing up surrounded by a large family, my memories are filled with my parents and grandparents, my two brothers, and too many
The National Honor Society is an opportunity for many students, who are well educated with dreams and leaderships skills, to upgrade themselves. The sole purpose of this organization is to endeavor leaders in different societies to help out their community. It will help colleges to notify the leaders when looking at students’ resumes, for those students in this organization will be the few who are well-developed leaders in their school. Since this will be the first time to be given the opportunity to contribute to this organization, I may not know everything about the requirements in which I need to manage.
The skills I have been able to develope since joining the National Honor Society are skills that I will will use for the rest of my life. Before joining the National Honor Society I was a typically high school student who really did not care about anything around him. Since joining the NHS I have grown a new appreciation for everything around me. I have grown as a leader and a person and I have learned to have a new outlook on life.
The National Honor Society brings beneficial opportunities to every student, and by being in cabinet I believe I will make full use of this privilege and gain knowledge of leadership essential for my future career. By running for Treasurer, I believe I would be able to utilize my previous experience as Vice President for an environmental club at my old school and introduce a different perspective with new strategies to ensure the success of the NHS. Due to my old position, I am knowledgeable in financial management and have developed organizational skills necessary for the position of Treasurer. Additionally, volunteering is something I greatly value and enjoy, and through the NHS I hope to find different opportunities for success in this field.
I am extremely honored to be taken into consideration for membership in our school’s National Honor Society. I have been awaiting this opportunity for a long time; I will be a valuable asset to the National Honor Society. NHS will allow me to expand my current abilities and also grow as a person. I display the qualities NHS is looking for- scholarship, character, service, and leadership. Academic excellence has always been my top priority.
The National Honor Society, NHS, was officially started by the National Association of Secondary School Principals in 1921. It started in a Pittsburg high school, but quickly grew throughout the nation. NHS has maintained a long history of admitting exemplary students into the organization. NHS developed four main tenants that have helped guide the purpose, as Zeiger (n.d.) explained: "to create enthusiasm for scholarship; to stimulate a desire to render service; to promote leadership; and to develop character in the students of secondary schools". I have chosen to do the National Honors Society, because it helped me throughout my junior and senior years in high school.
When I was 14, I saw my remarkable cousin walk across the stage to receive her award for all her years of dedication to be inducted into National Honor Society. She encompassed all the requirements for entrance into the National Honor Society and ever since then, I have had my mindset on following in her footsteps and stepping even farther to conquer the indefinite. As I opened the letter to be invited to apply for membership, I could not even remember the last time my eyes and smile sprouted that immense because to me, being nominated to be a member of the National Honor Society is an honor in itself. I would be thrilled to join such a society because of the limitless opportunities it would present to me. Joining NHS would allow me to grow as a person and do as much as I can for others.
