National Junior Honors Society

454 Words2 Pages

National Junior Honors Society needs people who are hard working, and are ready to get the job done. I should be considered to be in National Junior Honors Society because I show scholarship and leadership, I have done many community service activities, and I show character and citizenship.
I have done many activities involving scholarship and leadership. I am in violin, chorus, and other in-school and after school activities. This means I am familiar with other sides of school, and I can share my experiences and try to make them fit into what we do/what is done in NJHS. I also did cheerleading in my spare time and got to experience leadership qualities. I was made co- captain with a few other girls and made sure I did my job right. I can convert my knowledge of leadership into my time in NJHS if I am accepted into it. I also wouldn’t stray from A’s and B’s, and even now I don’t. I would never want to be low on grades. …show more content…

I have done a toy drive for the CT Children 's Med Center for 6th and 7th grade. NJHS is about helping our school and community. Helping with the toy drive helped me understand how to do things like that, which can help with any drives NJHS will plan in the future. I also helped with a clothing and toiletries drive for the women’s shelter. This can again help with planning any school drives that might be done by NJHS. It can also give ideas of what topic to do a drive on. I have also contributed to the NAACP Youth Group which did a drive for school supplies. If admitted into NJHS, I could maybe take inspiration from this, and we can do something for kids without enough school

Our Bethel (chapter) has presented several HIKE checks to kids in need. I have personally set up and planned fundraisers for this cause. Once, I asked all my friends and family to save up their aluminum cans for a few months to be recycled. We collected over 200 dollars, though I never wanted to look at another aluminum can again. The mother that received the next check was almost in tears.

For my community service project, I held a yard sale on October 17th, 2015 from 6:30 a.m. to one. I had received supplies from my family members and from my church members to sell. I made flyers and posted them in the community facilities, had the radio make an announcement, had the school announce the yard sale for two weeks, and had it announced on social media. This project was a success because with the yard sale and donations, I raised over 100 dollars to donate to The Wounded Warrior Project. I chose The Wounded Warrior Project because of the personal ties I have to the United States Military.

This is open to K-8th graders and their families. This year brought close to 1,000 participants to our building. For my station, I recruited several students to run the activities. I did this because it is important for younger students to see the high school students in action and because it is important to teach the older students to volunteer in their communities. After two long hours, one student turned to me and said, “Mrs. Luedars, can we do this again next month?”

For example, I won’t have to skip out on any volunteer work because I did not get my school work finished when I was supposed to. Also, I have never had any disciplinary problems and would never do anything to mar the good reputation of any NJHS members, advisers, or the Society itself. I have always loved sports and I have learned a lot about life and teamwork from them. Baseball has taught me the most about life and football has taught me the most about teamwork. Baseball is by far the most mentally taxing sport on the face of the planet, which definitely prepares you for life.

None of my friends were really in JHS but I decided to join anyway. I feel like we have a big role at the middle school because not only are we the students that have the younger grades looking up to us, I actually feel like a role model and that I make a difference. JHS was one of my favorite memories because we got to do fun things like paint paws on the lockers. We also get to have our own booths at like community drug prevention walks and after school activity nights.

The first reason why I should be in National Junior Honor Society is because of my leadership skills. The first example of my leadership skills are applied to my youth group in the Cecilton Parish.

Pursuing this further, I actively show leadership in school.

I have had the unforgettable opportunity to personally raise $1,400 for kids to go to summer camp, whose families could not afford it otherwise. I have worked at food drives, homeless shelters, and kid’s programs in my town, in hopes to make someone’s day a little bit better and ultimately make my community stronger. These experiences shaped who I am today. While I cherish the experience I had making a difference in my own town, I am ready to grow and leave a positive impact somewhere else in the country.

As I mentioned, I have been involved in NHS and Link Crew these past two years. In Link Crew, I have experienced very exposed leadership situations including leading my own group of about eight freshmen through orientation with a partner. I learned a lot about what it takes to be a true leader, rather than part of a group of leaders following a leader. While Link Crew holds more of a focus on helping younger students at my high school, NHS has brought me far beyond that. I got to help in a third grade classroom twice a week for a few months last year, and it opened my eyes to the need for attention and love at that young age.
