Sigma Theta Tau International: A Premier Professional Nursing Association

National Honors Society is represented by four different pillars, these are leadership, character, service and scholarship. To be a candidate for NHS you must exemplify these pillars in some shape or form during your high school career. I believe I demonstrate these four pillars in these examples that I have listed below.

NHS is an organization made up of students who regularly demonstrate the four pillars of NHS: Character, Leadership, Scholarship, and Service. Saydel’s chapter of NHS should model outstanding service and leadership within our school and community. Doing so will create a positive environment amongst our community members and students. Utilizing my strong leadership abilities, I believe I can help our chapter of NHS flourish. My strength in organization, self-determination, and ability to engage others will make me a great asset to our NHS

It is an honor to be considered for NHS. To me NHS is a place where gifted individuals can continue to grow as people and polish their talents. As a past NJHS member, I would like to find myself in NHS.

The National Honor Society, or NHS, is a club that strives to recognize “student academic achievement” and promote, express, and act “on the four pillars: Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character” according to the Leigh High School website. Members of the nationwide club must apply, have a GPA of 3.5 or above, and at Leigh, tutor their peers. The daily bulletin, announced in tutorial, has recently been reminding Leigh students of the new change, saying “Come down to Homework Center in Rm. 48 after school and get help from NHS tutors.” While the club is not new to Leigh, the 1 on 1 tutor program is.

The National Honor Society (NHS) is a longstanding nationwide organization that provides students, such as myself, an opportunity to be recognized for their outstanding scholarship, character, leadership, and service. The organization allows for students to excel outside of the classroom through many activities. It provides students, actively involved in the NHS, an opportunity to positively affect the lives of others through the various community service activities that are organized throughout the school year. The NHS will also function as an outlet to network with my fellow peers and teachers who are like-minded in the pursuit of success.

Being selected as a member of Grove School’s National Honor Society would be a great honor for me because I hope to achieve my goal of exhibiting my dedication to academics, community service and extra circulars. I strive to be a role model and a resource for my peers by guiding them in the right direction. I think I could be a valuable addition to NHS because I have a strong work ethic, have a passion for helping people and not only meet but exceed all the qualifications of leadership, character, service and scholarship.

Nurses join professional nursing organizations to “have a voice in issues that affect nursing practice and to stay current in their field of specialty” (UC Davis Medical Center, 2016).

The National Honor Society is a very prestigious organization designed to help students gain endless, lifelong opportunities. I am absolutely honored to be considered as an applicant to become a member of NHS. Since I arrived at this campus, I have admired the members of NHS and have observed their achievements in hope that one day I can reach their success.

The National League for Nursing (NLN) is guided by four core values; caring, integrity, diversity and excellence (National League of Nursing, n.d.). Initially the NLN was called the American Society of Superintendents of Training Schools for Nurses (Matthews, J., 2012, n.p.). Though smaller in membership than the ANA, the NLN has existed for over 100 years and boasts forty thousand members. The NLN mission is to advance the quality of education for nursing in order to enhance health not only for the country, but also the world. The organization represents educators as well as nurses. Membership opens the doors to testing services, research grants, and professional development through continuing education webinars, conferences and

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

Reasons I would join the American Nurses Association include the online higher learning and continuing education opportunities, membership fees helping further advocacy efforts on reforms of all nurses including, the Affordable Care Act, RN Reinvestment Act, and Needle stick Safety and Prevention Act, and membership also supporting periodicals including The American Nurse, American Nurse Today, and the Online Journal of Issues in Nursing. Because science and technology are constantly evolving, nurses need to keep up with the changes that affect the healthcare system. Continuing education courses are required to stay up-to-date in nursing practices and ANA offers them with discounted prices. ANA offers many peer-reviewed clinical articles that pertain to my field of expertise. I can gain a personal and professional support system of other nurses who can share my interests and concerns thru ANA. I can voice my issues that affect my nursing practice and licensure.

“According to the IOM report, the nursing profession is the largest segment of the nation’s healthcare workforce. Nursing represents the largest sector of the health professions, with more than 3 million registered nurses in the United States.”
