National Honor Society: Extra Curricular Activities

Some of the extra-curricular activities I am involved in include Science National Honor Society, National Honor Society, and Amnesty International. These three particular activities are helping me shape the person I am today. The amount of work one has to put into these activities reflects the amount of work I will one day put into my future studies and work. In these extra-curricular activities I am expected to participate with my community outside of school. This has and will continue to help me

National Honor Society National Honor Society is a nationwide organization for high school students, which was established in 1921 by Principal Edward S. Rynearson. NHS was originally founded on the principles to create enthusiasm for scholarship, stimulate a desire to render service, promote responsibility and leadership, and develop character in students. NHS is a wonderful opportunity for me and I believe that I would be an excellent member able to present valuable contributions to the program

clubs and programs that Brantley County had to offer. I was a member of the FFA, Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA), Beta Club, National Honors Society (NHS), and the Work Based Learning program. In the time I participated in these clubs and programs, I was a part of many community service projects. In order to be a member of the National Honors Society and the Beta Club, I was required to maintain an “A” average all 4 years of school to be an active member. With the NHS and the Beta Club

National Honor Society is more than a club I am apart of, it has given me the motivation to strive to keep my grades at a certain level, keep up with community service, treat others with respect, and also conduct myself in a mature manner. The National Honor Society Scholarship would help fund my schooling at Gulf Coast State College in Panama City, Florida. I was always taught that I must work hard for everything I receive, I believe now is the time to show all I have worked for. At Gulf

The reason that I am interested in becoming a member of the National Honor Society is because the National Honor Society represents all of the values that I find most important in my education and life. National Honor Society requires academic excellence throughout high school. At the beginning of my Freshman year, I set a goal to graduate with a 4.0 GPA. I have worked diligently to achieve and maintain this grade point average while taking several advanced classes. So far, I have taken three classes

Not only does the present flow into the future, it decides the future. Because of my knowledge of this simple fact, I have been aware throughout high school that my academic decisions and extra-curricular activities will shape the person that I will become. My choice of academics and extra-curricular activities have instilled what I need to confidently and comfortably step into the real world. Starting at a young age, it has been my heart’s desire to help and care for people. Due to this strong

Over the past four year, while attending Central Dauphin East High, I have gotten involved in many different activities and clubs. I first got involved in the sports at East High, such as field hockey, swimming, and lacrosse. Starting from my freshman year, I helped make East a better school, to compete against. In 2012, the field hockey team won just about half of the games they played, the swimming team was offly small but was competition for others and we sure gave it our all that year; especially

definitely my efforts of maintaining a good GPA and the participation in the National Honor Society. Trying to achieve and keep up with my GPA was harder than it appeared but due to all the effort I can anticipate that whatever the future has in store for me I will be ready to endure. Not only was the experience of my GPA life-changing but it was also the door to bigger opportunities, one being the National Honor Society. Although I doubted myself almost every step of the way I can truthfully say

important to me. The past few years I have held many leadership positions to deepen my skills as a leader. Some of my most notable leadership positions of high school were that I was the secretary of my class, the secretary of my school’s National Honor Society, a member of the Youth Council for the Teen Leadership Corps, and a Student Ambassador for my high school. I have recently been chosen as a Peer Leader for the College of Business Administration (CBA), meaning that I will be available to help

“Playing college basketball requires a lot of hard-work. Having the opportunity to play college basketball isn’t given to you in your hands; it’s given to you by your performance on the court” says Sue Wicks, a WNBA Hall-Of-Fame from the New York Liberty. As a member of my high school girls’ varsity basketball team, this quote truly inspired me because I wanted to become just like her; playing college basketball after high school, volunteering my time working with kids and being inducted into the
