National Honors Society’s four pillars are imperative in a member. First there is character, which focuses on your mannerisms and actions. Next, there is Leadership which shows your ability to guide and manage. Then there is service showing your involvement in the community. Lastly there is scholarship, which is about your classes and academic achievements. It’s hard to judge your own character, because you always want to assume you're the best version of yourself. I hope I have shown my teachers the best version of myself and have displayed all the five codes of conduct. I believe I have shown my responsibility by taking control of my work planning time to do the work. I also believe I have been responsible by reaching out for help from my teachers. I show my honesty and courage by admitting to what I don’t know. Which I believe shows my character the best, because not everyone is willing to admit what they don’t know. There is also my respect which I show to my peers and teachers by listening to everyone's ideas and participating in group discussion. Character is important because it is the one pillar that is the hardest to change. You can improve the other pillars by working harder, volunteering your time more, and asserting yourself into more leadership roles. However, to change …show more content…
By seeing their leadership roles you get to look at how they work in groups which links back to their character. If the student can only work by themselves, it shows they aren’t versatile. It is useless if you know everything but can bring nothing to a group setting. Especially when you learn so much from a group. This summer I went to a leadership camp and all of the activities involved my leg, which is what we called a group, of 10 future leaders. This showed me that a leadership quality doesn't mean you have to be the manager of the group. Everyone can bring something and be a leader in their own

It can come from being in charge in a school project for language arts literacy or running a fundraiser to help raise awareness to a disease. They take charge in something with an effective sense and choose to embrace their acts of self assessment.What their group or themselves is good at,their weaknesses and strengths.Once they figure that out,everything goes smoothly.Even from a project once the topic is clearly explained and managed by the leader there is no problem getting across from the littlest of obstacles. True acts of leadership here in Terence C Reilly, is not being carried out by bad influences.They have a good ethic of relations with other classmates and prove to work collaboratively.Although teamwork and cooperation is part of a leadership, it all leads up to an effective communication within others.Students have different leadership skills,but never do it in a bad way.

I wish to provide hope for better lives in everyone. My history with leadership shows that I am willing to put forth the hard effort to help make dreams comes true, not just for me but for everyone else around me.

The four pillars of the National Honor Society create a unique balance for any student that follows them. Personally, I excel in scholarship because I truly enjoy going to school and intend to go many more years in the future. My college interests involve the honors college at the university I am attending as well as a pre-medical path; therefore, my education, or scholarship will be a vital part of my college experience. In regards to the other three pillars of this Honor Society, service also adds balance to a student’s life. To serve others brings one a sense of integrity and an amazing feeling of generosity. Through the National Honor Society, I have learned many extraordinary ways that I can help my community whether it is something small
For scholarship I Also I get good grades and try to be good role model. For example, I took and passed my Global Regents as a Freshmen because I showed readiness by consistently participating and showing good work ethics. Even though I wasn’t in the honors class I felt ready to face the challenge as a Freshmen. What made me want to take to take this exam was to prove it doesn’t matter if you’re in the honors class or not just work hard. I’ve talked to the current and the upcoming freshmen about negative and positive things I went through as freshmen so they don’t make the same mistakes I did or so that they can do the same positive things I did. For leadership, I participate in class and encourage my peers to do the same. I help make sure my peers comprehend what we have learned. In sports, I push my teammates to get better but have fun at the same time. I start practices when my coach is running late and when my coach is out talking to someone I continue the practice. For service, I and my Mosque went out on August 17, 2017, and collect cans of food and a collection for $350 and sent it to Sierra Leone because of the flood /mudslide and for the people who lost their homes and family. We also ran a food drive to give back to the community and helped the homeless. For character, I show all the five words Integrity, Leadership, Courage, Curiosity, Concern and also Brother’s
Scholarship, leadership, character and service are all characteristics found in a National Honor Society member. I believe that I possess all of these characteristics and should be given the honor of receiving this NHS scholarship.
Out of the four characteristics of National Honor Society, I felt the most important is a character. It’s because it distinguishes how your behavior shows daily the way you carry yourself every day. Got to bat for your convictions about great and awful, be your best self, and oppose social weight to do the wrong thing for the right reason. Good characters show respect, responsibility, trustworthiness, fairness, caring, and citizenship in all their actions every day. “Reputation is the shadow. The character is the tree.” - Abraham Lincoln. The quote explains that character is something that does not change, something that stays with all you that which characterizes you. No other person can control it. Status labeled that other give you, so,
"Character, in the long run, is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike." Theodore Roosevelt. Students should demonstrate scholarship, leadership, service, citizenship, and character because of three reasons. One, if students demonstrate these qualities they are more likely to get better grades and get reprimanded less. Another, without these traits, a student would have far less opportunities in the future. Finally, as students grow they will gain much more wisdom if they allow themselves to work on demonstrating these characteristics. Overall, these qualities are very important in the present, and in the future.
Members of the National Honors society gracefully and diligently display four important characteristics during and after their induction. These individuals set examples to others through these important traits: scholarship, leadership, character, and service. All of these characteristics are very important and unable to be fully mastered without the other. But with everything, there is always a core or a center. This core of the traits is leadership. Leadership is unattainable without respect, charisma, compassion, and intelligence. A trait taught through the previous characteristics. But leadership is the base of it all, allowing an individual to put together amazing events and providing an opportunity to others through their actions. A
The four pillars of National Honor Society could not be framed more perfectly to apply to my future goals. In the future, I want to base my goals around rebuilding foreign governments and infrastructure, while addressing and solving desperate social issues as well. The four pillars of National Honor Society facilitate this goal extremely well for the following reasons. Scholarship is obviously paramount because the ability work hard to learn, comprehend and understand other situations in other countries is vital to pursuing progress. Furthermore, the inherent work ethic in scholarship and knowledge it provides is needed for insight on the inner workings of other governments in order to achieve my goals. Service is also incredibly important,
