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. When it comes to leadership, there is one thing that I am very proud of. As a senior team captain and unquestioned leader I had a massive task on my hands this year. Coming off of a winless season the football team was lacking commitment and and there were many questions about how the teams was going to bounce …show more content…

Since joining the NHS I have developed a great appreciation for everything going on around me. From holding the door for someone or simply greeting other in the hallways, I believe that the NHS has helped me develop a open and giving personality that has a positive impact on everyone I come into contact with. There are many things that come to mind when I think of how my character has changed, but there is a certain one that really sticks out. That example is this year when the NHS was serving cookies for Valentine’s Day and we had a bunch of leftover cookies. I asked Mr. Spears what we were going to do with the leftover cookies and he thought we could just hand them out during lunch. The old me would have loved this idea because I would have got more cookies, but with my newly developed character I thought it would be a good idea to give the cookies away to others and that is what we did. Me and another member of the NHS ended up bringing the leftover cookies to Fieldcrest Assisted Living for the old folks to have and they could not have been more happy. The NHS is a fantastic organization that has taught me some great life traits. There is no doubt the the things I have learned through the National Honor Society are skills that I will use for the rest of my life. The NHS has given me a whole new outlook of life and I could not be more

After completing the hours the biggest ethical issue I observed was the lack of participation. This came from the fact of a lot of the students who participated in National Honors Society, take part because they want to add the activity to their college application. a lot of people join NHS in order to boost their college resume. “ According to research commissioned by the National Honor Societies, 59 percent of admissions officers look for participation in community service opportunities to evaluate a student's character, and 30 percent of admissions officers say the most impressive extracurricular activity is volunteering in the local community.” Which sometimes causes ethical issues because once the students get in they do the basic amount to stay in.

Pouring a cup of hot chocolate and grabbing a bag of popcorn was best decision I made all day. Instead of watching the last JV football game of the year, I decided to help the concession stand disperse food and beverages to the community. Giving a little to my community brought me gratitude even though I did not benefit from it. Working for good causes was all I needed for choosing to work over spectating a game. Helping the community is one attribute I would like to continue and joining National Honors Society would allow me to do this.

Every week I spend time at the Morristown Medical Center as a volunteer, where I am able to help keep things functioning in the hospital at the highest speed possible and hopefully brighten a few patients’ days. Also, I’ve enjoyed helping refereeing youth basketball games for the past two seasons and being able to talk with the kids. It is a great opportunity to give back to a program which gave me so much in the five years I played in it when I was younger. Furthermore, I am excited for even more opportunities to have an impact on my community which being a part of National Honor Society would aid in.

To be a candidate for the National Honors Society is a remarkable privilege and it is with great delight I able to thoroughly apply myself for a chance at this opportunity. To join NHS would mean to make a positive impact on the community while being surrounded by like-minded peers, two great reasons to join in and of themselves, but together are an entirely different story; together means to have a larger area of the community to assist, a larger goal to strive for, and a larger impact to be made.

Being a part of the National Honor Society will help me to improve academically, and socially. I would also like to advance my leadership abilities and be able to contribute to more service activities. One of my goals is to be a good role model to other students and show how hard work and dedication will pay off. I love the quote, “Life isn’t about finding yourself, life is about creating yourself.” To me, this quote means that whatever you do in life, shows who you are as a person, and the NHS will help me do that.
