Beaver High School Band Tri-M Sca Honor Society

Since childhood, I had a chance to develop my leadership and organizational skills through sports and had my school team win many competitions. My school is one of the places where my leadership qualities are valued as I often become a head of many activities, such as staging plays, organizing shows and school trips with my teachers. Being a leader gives me the opportunity to work in a team and consider my peers’ ideas to make our plans creative and enjoyable for everyone. My personal traits help me to gain trust and respect of my peers as they believe me to be a positive, open-minded and reliable person. I have learned to solve problems and conflicts thanks to this great experience of leadership, and I am always ready to assist my peers when it is

Tri-M Music Honors Society is the most important organization to me. It has helped me to become the responsible and caring person that I am today. Music has always been a large part of my life. From learning and teaching an instrument to reaching out to the local community, I have always felt very fulfilled with the work I have produced.

I would like to become an active member of Carrboro High School National Honor Society, because I am looking forward to the opportunity to serve and improve the community with other like-minded students. I believe it is important to balance academics, athletics, and community service. For example, this year I am taking 5 AP classes, running cross-country and track, and have spent almost 150 hours volunteering in the community. The first time I volunteered was when I raised a diabetic alert dog with my family. Even though I was sad to see the dog I had raised go, it was a rewarding experience because I knew that the dog would help someone have a better life. Anytime I can find an opportunity to both improve myself and the community, I won’t hesitate to seize it. I found the opportunity to do just that at both Shodor and CHCCS Project Graduation.

Sheri L. Dew states that “True leaders understand that leadership is not about them but about those they serve. It is not about exalting themselves but about lifting others up.” Leadership, service, and character is and always will be very important to me which is why I believe I qualify and would be a beneficial member to the Valley Heights High School National Honors Society.

Throughout my high school years, I have had the opportunity to demonstrate my leadership skills through different organizations and events. I have participated in events such as History Fair, and have been part of the organization of National Honor Society through three years of high school. I was the leader of my History Fair project group when preparing for competition. The organization of National Honor Society has helped me demonstrate my leadership skills through volunteer work meant to help and improve society helping me gain experience as a leader.

Other areas that I exhibit leadership qualities are through babysitting, volunteering though the Delta Dental Foundation, and acting in the play “Treasure Island.” I believe that by babysitting I exhibit leadership qualities such as; being dependable, being able to delegate responsibilities, being able to communicate with the children and their parents, and having a positive attitude. This is because in order to successfully watch children and keep them safe it is important to not only be in control, but to have earned the respect of the children you are watching. Secondly, I believe that volunteering through the Delta Dental Foundation I exhibit leadership qualities such as; being resourceful, being understanding, and exemplifying positive

Throughout my high school career I have encountered the chance to experience the position of being a leader for my peers. I have pursued leadership skills by being an officer in HOSA for three years, leading community service events for NHS, and taking charge on running school events in Key Club. I have obtained valuable leadership skills throughout my high school career, and encouraged the club members to take charge and develop leadership skills to help them in the future.

One place where my leadership skills are valued are at work. While it is often difficult to become comfortable in a new atmosphere, I help new employees learn the job and offer them a positive outlook on the job. My leadership quality also worked in my favor during Junior Leadership, a club where selected individuals grow to become leaders within their community. Throughout the duration of the club, we were put into groups for a community service activity. After several weeks of no progress, I decided to take control of our group and lead them to a definite plan for the Christmas party at the nursing home.

Being the oldest of six children to a single mother has naturally spurred me to shape and build my leadership skills. Over time, I have gained the ability to lead in situations that I deemed necessary. Consequently, I have become an active member of both the National Honor Society and the Female African American Scholars organization (a group geared toward creating a motivational community among the academically successful African American students in my school). Additionally, I have become captain of John Glenn’s varsity tennis team and I have launched a nonprofit business to guide teen mothers through the Young Entrepreneurs Academy. All of my obtained leadership skills have proven useful to me on many occasions.

Throughout the duration of my life, roles of leadership have influenced my stance towards my major, most notably my role in the Girl Scouts of America. Committing to Girl Scouts for thirteen years has given me ample opportunities to positively impact others. It has also given me real world scenarios in which I had the chance to resolve disputes, interact with diverse people, and contribute to several projects that bettered my community. I take pride in my time with the Scouts, as it not only benefitted me by personally transforming me into a young professional with a strong work ethic and morals, but it allowed me to help others and work on understanding the world around me. My most significant and rewarding project involved conducting research

Flute Choir has performed in Florida Flute Convention and Georgia Flute Convention. During Flute Choir, I learned not only how to play bass flute and alto flute, I learned how to cooperate with

In the beginning of the school year I decided to volunteer at my former high school and throughout the process of my volunteering period I witnessed poor leadership skills from the high school seniors that were leaders of this academic program that helps upcoming freshmen feel comfortable entering high school. This academic program is called Link Crew and through the time I was helping out the high school seniors with their ways of introducing themselves and having an image of being a leader and what changes they could personally do with their academic life and how they could help different types of characters such as a person that is an introvert compare to how they could treat a person that is an extrovert. The poor leadership skills I witnessed

Throughout my life I have been committed to being a leader and role model in my community. I have been highly committed to the Duke of Edinburgh program completing all three award levels, Gold, Silver and Bronze. Through this program I have gained experience in communicating with people of similar and very different circumstances and life experiences. I have volunteered at a nursing home talking and listening to residents, preparing and serving food at a local soup kitchen and coaching and mentoring rowers at my old high

In my opinion, leadership is about taking ownership to create excellence. Acquiring leadership skills is a key aspect of an individual’s growth. A true leader is a one who motivates his team to bring out their best. My Journey as a class monitor in grade 5, a head girl in grade 10, a class representative in college or a team lead at Philips gave tons of opportunities to showcase my leadership skills. I would like to choose the following experience to highlight my leadership skills since I gained substantially from it.
