High School National Honor Society

Being nominated to be a member of the National Honor Society is an honor. I would be a valuable member to NHS because I have the ability set examples and exceed expectations in academics. Throughout my years here at Mater East Academy High School, I have always strive to do the best that I can to achieve the best grades possible. Not only do I focus on my academics, but also, I strive to be an asset to the high school. I have been a member of The Cat Network for one year. This not-for-profit corporation taught me a lot about the importance of communication and helping out the community. I always try to bring everything I learn and apply it to everyday life. I plan to demonstrate high standards of honesty and reliability, courtesy, respect for others, and create enthusiasm for academic excellence while taking part in NHS.

East Kentwood’s National Honor Society is an organization that prides itself on helping others throughout the community, improving our schools, and fostering relationships with students. If you have been selected to take part in NHS this year, it means that you represent the top students, academically, that East Kentwood has to offer. For juniors and seniors with a 3.5 GPA or higher, we welcome and encourage you to take part in this beneficial

The National Honors Society (NHS) is a group in which leadership, teamwork, and motivation skills are all developed, among a collection of other characteristics through various service projects. Granted these are the benefits listed on the website and not known to me through personal experience, I am certain that being apart of NHS would be beneficial to my life in preparing to enter the real, independent world and head off to college within the next few years. As a soft-spoken scholar, NHS would provide a way for me to familiarize myself in a collaborative and teamwork-filled setting that could better prepare me for jobs, as well as it would teach me to be a leader, and push me into the world to help and think about others rather than just

Throughout middle school, I participated in NJHS. I enjoyed the club and my advisors always recommended that I join NHS in high school. I like to think that I deserve this honor and this chance because I have worked very hard to get here. Leadership is one of my greatest attributes, and helping others is a passion of mine. Moreover, I am extremely ambitious, giving my all when completing a task or reaching a goal. My dream is to become a surgeon and I want to engage in the National Honor Society throughout high school and college, as the club will significantly enhance my leadership skills and aid in bettering myself as a person. This club can help me in the future to become a surgeon where leadership and courage will be the key to being

When I first received the letter inviting me to apply to the National Honor Society, my initial thoughts were of appreciation for the recognition of my hard work during this past academic year. To think of myself as a member of the NHS is an honor that could have a profound impact on my future. Over the past several years I have driven myself to become a much more motivated person. Along with achieving a GPA of 3.67, which is a personal best, I have also motivated myself to lose 35 pounds, which has helped me to have the self-confidence to take a more active leadership role in encouraging others to live a healthier lifestyle. To be considered a member of this prestigious organization is both an

National Honor Society is a crucial part in a student’s life as it is an organization that demonstrates leadership through characteristics, behavior and great excellence. This organization encourages other students to work harder to become a member of NHS. It would be a great honor to be a NHS member during high school because I understand that it is a selective group. I am a student, who through service and leadership, have demonstrated that I am a well-organized, willing and a cheerful student with initiative.

National Honors Society as a whole was a concept I had been keen to ever since I was young, even before my high school school years. I had witnessed through the mainstream media that being a member of NHS was a profound achievement; it was only obtained by the brightest and most intelligent individuals and I could not wait to wear that honorary badge of honor. The junior year of my high school career marked the year I was finally granted membership. Compared to most of the other members, I was quite the late

    Because I have spent all my time in my academics, I have not been able to do the actions that would fill up my application; however, I will put in all my time in NHS and still try to strive for my goals.  Furthermore, I will try to be present at all the meetings and participate in everything I possibly can in helping my fellow members and the community.  With my determination, I believe I will be a great asset to National Honors Society.

The reason that I want to be part of the National Honor Society is that I am in love with the idea of a group of young individuals whose sole purpose is the betterment of their community. Additionally, with all the hate going on in the world right now I make it a point to be part of any organization that offers me the chance to help the people around me, and that's exactly what honor society gives me the opportunity to do. From Beta club to any church program I strive to be in anything that allows me to serve others. Therefore with the morals and ideologies NHS holds it is exactly what I am looking for, and I would be honored to gain membership into it.

After reading the case study, what I know is that the National Honor Society (NHS), is one of the finest organizations and students who have excel, is recognized. The students are base on the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, character, and citizenship. Students are not nominated by their peers but by the teachers, that the students have encountered and established a relationship with. There is not one teacher that select an eligible member, it's a committee. The committee consist of teachers and they based each application by the criteria of scholarship, leadership, service, character, and citizenship. All factors are considered for membership, not just academics.

To begin with, I would like to share the first quality a NHS member must bear which is

To join the NHS, the student must be enrolled at a school and attending grades 10 through 12. The school must have an active NHS chapter and each chapter has its own qualifications for membership. The minimum requirement per the NHS National Constitution is the following:

Originally, I joined NHS out of curiosity. I had an acquaintance in the club who suggested I apply—however I was perplexed by the two-essay application. I wanted to know if NHS was selective because it was really great to be a member, or because it was great to say I was one. I also, quite frankly, wondered if I would be accepted. However, since then I’ve realized NHS expects commitment from its members for the sake of commitment— rather than for the sake of membership. NHS has high expectations of its members, so that they can have high expectations for themselves.

In order to be considered for Nation Honors Society a student must express a strong dedication to their scholarship. However, scholarship is not the only quality one requires to be accepted into NHS. To be accepted into the program and to hold onto that membership a student must express the important qualities of leadership, service, and character. When NHS members apply for either a job or college it is expected of them to have these qualities due to the reputation NHS holds. Members of NHS must emulate these qualities, both to keep up the prestigious reputation of the organization and to benefit themselves throughout there live, as well as benefit those around them. I have long expressed these qualities by being involved in other organizations

The UK mandate do not have a nurse patient ratio in an adult inpatient ward (NHS England, 2015; NICE, 2015; NQB, 2017). Nursing shortages affects patients and the nursing workforce which has caused the government to respond (Gerston, 2015). The DoH working in partnership with HEE implements a new policy for students who start the course from august 2017 will not be able to get the NHS bursary but can get the student loan (DoH, 2017; HCC, 2016). This will reduce the amount of money spent on a student, provide universities with sustainable funding and create more training places for student nurses (DoH, 2017; Nuffield Trust, 2016). HEE (2017) supports this point as it proves that the government will save about £650
