I have been looking forward to this opportunity since the beginning of High School. To me, NHS’s four pillars are essential elements to being a member of this society.

Its job is to not only commemorate those who made honor roll, but also those who have shown outstanding service, character, and leadership.
The National Honor Society is built upon four founding principles: Scholarship, Character, Leadership, and Service. I have a high school life filled with dedication to these four principles on the Spiritual standpoint, the Familial level, the Community level and finally at the National level. Moreover, I did begin my dedication to these same four principles even before this starting with the Boy Scouts of America and this commitment will continue along with having a rich future when I reach my fullest potential. I firmly believe that to have academic excellence is giving your best effort to maintain not just having straight As and a high GPA at or close to the edge of attaining a 4.0, but to also have the skills that help you perform your very best in college and beyond. To recap, it is having a well-rounded education with just the right academics and activities best suited to your

Being in a leadership position in several organizations has taught me to put others before myself.
The National Honor Society is based off of four pillars; Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. Scholarship is one of the most important pillars to me.

If I get into NHS, it will give me a lot of opportunities to be a leader.
It is a great honor to have the chance to apply to be a member of NHS.

Because I exemplify all four pillars of the National Honor Society: scholarship, leadership, character, and service, I believe that I would be a good candidate for NHS. Many activities that I have done in the past, and still do today, have given me opportunities to demonstrate my leadership skills.
I strongly believe that participating in service work and having strong leadership qualities helps set people up for a brighter future. As people who are honored to have such fortunate lives, it is our duty to help those who need an extra hand. In the National Honors Society, I would love the opportunity to practice this duty often. I will try my best to participate in as many service projects that are available to us, because I value the ability we have to help others. I believe that NHS will help us grow and become more educated as students, and people, in general as we participate in service work.
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.
Throughout my years in school, I have heard my older friends discuss about National Honor Society. As a child, I thought it was just a club for students who had good grades. However, as I continued to grow older, I understood the message of NHS –– to be a student who not only had the brains, but to have a heart of compassion for their community. NHS highlights the importance of building your own self up as well as building up those around you. After listening to my friends’ conversations about what they had been doing with NHS, I knew that this was something big that I wanted to take place in.
