Personal Narrative: My High School Beta Club

Throughout my high school career, I have been involved in various clubs and organizations to help me become a leader in my community. At Auburn High School I took on the role of being a Publicist officer for National Technical Honors Society the first two consecutive years that it became a part of our school. I gained a lot of leadership experience through this club. Implementing a new organization is never easy and takes a lot of hard work and dedication from the leaders of the club. By being a part of a very helpful, dedicated and motivated team, we helped affiliate all the eligible members into the club and in turn helped introduce this new club to the school. As publicist my role in helping the club grow was crucial; I helped in publicizing the clubs various projects and involvement.

The National Beta Club has prepared me to serve my school, communities, and others in our changing world by promoting achievement, character, leadership, and service. Without Beta Club, my list of accomplishments would not compare to what it is now. Beta has required me to meet valuable goals and opportunities that I might have missed. Being in Beta Club has given me the desire to always do my best.

A club that I had always wanted to be apart of since my freshman year of highschool was The Beta Club.

I hold my membership as a homeroom representative in my high school’s Student Government in especially high regard. What led me to value this organization and to join it was due to the fact that I wanted to become an involved member of my high school community. This goal would have proven difficult if I had not joined Student Government because I did not know a single student in my grade before enrolling in my high school. On another note, student government needs its members to help out at various functions—which aid in unifying the school—such as dances or weekly lunchtime events. Thus, I gladly offered my time to set up for the Back-to-School Dance at my high school this past August. Besides situating the sound equipment and selling soft

My alarm went off at 4:45a.m. As soon as I heard it, I knew I had a long day ahead of me. My parents started screaming and telling everyone to get in the car. My mom, dad, two brothers (Nico and Adrian), grandfather, and I all put our luggages in the car and got seated. At 5:00 a.m. we were out the door and on the road for a 10 hour drive to Seaside, Florida.

High school athletics can form a bond that nothing else can. Throughout my high school career I have been blessed with the opportunity to participate in multiple sports such as cross country, basketball, and track. These sports have shaped my character in a way that nothing else has. It has taught me to stay loyal to those who push me to be better, it has taught me to encourage others when they think they can go no farther as well as the other way around, and it has taught me that the people you play with in high school will have an effect on your life forever. They turned me into a person that is willing to go the extra mile for someone, and they have turned me into a person that will not give up in the sight of

When I first started my first semester at my community college, I was enthusiastic to initiate a connection with the student body. When ‘Club Day’ was hosted as I walked around the tables I saw usual clubs that a college would have such as robotics, math club, charity club, however there was not a club that focused on Earth conservation. I still appreciated the other clubs, but I saw the opportunity to create a new club that would focus on my interest in conservation and sustainability.

The music thrums through the barn, reverberating off the metal walls and bouncing around the rafters. I clap my hands to the beat, then spin, stomp, and jump, showing the gaggle of little girls the steps of the dance while their dads stand to the side, laughing and clumsily snapping pictures on their phones.

My first week of at Liberty High School was pretty normal basically like a bigger version of middle school at frontier for me. My classes are all pretty fun and have their own characteristics, but for the most part cool. I went with all basic classes this year to see if they were to easy or if they would be perfect for me, so that next year if I wanted I can move up to ap classes. The sport I play most of the time right now is football, I play cornerback and running back. When I’m not playing football I am wrestling, and hopefully join the swim team if I don’t make varsity in football or wrestling. Also this year I hope that I can keep straight A’s, and if not at least not go below a

In preschool, I knew the letters of my name but did not quite understand that their order mattered. “Who’s Yam?” my grandpa puzzled after reading his birthday card. One day I would be “Yma,” the next “May,” and on a good day “Amy.” As I walked the halls in middle school, my classmates playfully shouted, “Hey Yam Yam!” Fortunately, my association with a type of potato ended in high school, that is, until my junior year.

Last December I was volunteering for a club in school, we collected gifts for orphan children of all age groups. A few days before Christmas we all gathered at a local church and we began serving food and giving out gifts for children. As the day went by so did all the presents, we began to realize there was not enough for everybody however we had just the right amount in the end. Suddenly, a group of kids my age walked in I glanced at the section where we had placed the gifts for teenagers but there were no more presents. I looked over to our sponsor and we began to think of a way for these boys and girls to receive a gift. In that moment one of the church members walked in with gifts that were meant to be given to us as a thank you for coming to help the church pass out gifts and serve food. I looked over at the group of teenagers and saw sadness in their faces I then offered if I could give the gift to one of them. My peers agreed and did the same.

My time in High School was made difficult from the constant strife and conflict between my parents. This made my home an unstable environment not fitted for learning or growing as an individual. As I got older and closer to graduating High-School, I began to find my own voice with the help of my mentor Rahn Fleming, which occurred at the end of my junior year. As a result, I came in control of my life and the constant feuding started to die down. No longer did I have to worry about the next scheduled court date, or the next time I would come home wondering what may await. I felt like I was always walking on broken glass for the longest of time throughout my life, until I began to voice myself and what I wanted. My parents came to realize this

During my freshman year, I was limited to what clubs I could join due to not having a ride home and starting school late. As such, it was exciting to join my first and only high school club at the time, Table-Top Games Club. Table-Top Games Club was a club formed to promote intellectual stimulation and reduce stress through board games. We were all basically a bunch of nerds gathering together to play Dungeons and Dragons. The club was actually formed that year so I got to be there from the start and see it grow. It was a nice experience because there weren’t that many members so we became a close-knit community. I was a class representative both freshmen and sophomore year. Eventually, my loyalty to the club earned me the position of President

The people in my old high school, Edgewood High School, is a great school with less than one thousand students that were all very kind. Most, if not all student participate to clubs and activity that help the needed. I am proud to say that I have founded and lead three clubs in my old high school. The first one is a female empowering club where members create fundraisers in the sole of donating it to others. The funds that are collected are then given to female scholars around the world (with a focus on third world countries) who are first to graduate high school in their families. The next one is a club called Science Olympiad. It is a club where students study different types of sciences and have a friendly competition with other schools in the whole nation. This club gave students like me a chance to explore and be knowledgeable of topic that are otherwise not taught in a public school curriculum. Me and my peers became knowledgeable about epidemiology, hydrogeology, and more. Lastly, I started a Korean pop dance club

The club that I joined in high school was named young men’s leadership this club helped show me how to become a better person to people and how to show others with respect, even if they don’t show me the same respect and it also show me how to be a good leader. The way this club showed me how to be a better leader is by having everyone within the club set great leadership around the school, having us help out at soup kitchens around the city whenever we can which was really fun to do. Another interesting experience for me when I was apart this club was when they assigned the older member’s of (YML) such as myself as mentors to help the younger members out with their homework, or if they needed advice about something, however these things we had to do sometimes did have a tiny bit of a negative effect but it do that much damage because these things turn out to be a very positive effect at the end of day which was very good. These two experiences that I can remember helping me out a lot I can defiantly say I owe so much to this club in the way it help me become a better and more respectable
