National English Honors Society is a way for me to serve the community while doing something that I love. Since I was a child, I have always had a strong love of English. I’ve been writing since I was six years old. After a lot of hard work, I won first place for poetry in the county’s “Write Now” contest at fourteen years old. I feel as though my biggest talents are writing and strong interpersonal skills, so I could help to spread the word and organize events with local schools, retirement homes, and other places. In English classes, I always strive to have an A average by the end of the year. This year, I am pushing myself even further by taking the eleventh grade AP English course. To me, NEHS would be a great way to serve others and
National Honors Society has demonstrated how impactful it is to help out at school and in the community. While doing my community service in various events throughout my junior and senior year, I’ve become aware that National Honors Society has impacted me and the community. I recognized that volunteers positively influence the community. During events volunteers play a major role in community events. Without the help of volunteers many events wouldn’t be possible. I’ve volunteered in events from NHS and also other events in my community, learning that it feels great being part of many events and into making them a good experience for the people involved. National Honors Society has impacted me into knowing the major difference that volunteers
It is a honor to be admitted to be considered for the National Junior Honor Society. Over my first months at Hickory Creek middle school, I had heard about the national junior honors society.

The National Honors Society allows students to be build and create traits that are essential in a successful adult. I truly believe that hold many of these traits and joining the National Honor Society will grant me the opportunity to expand on these traits and grow as a person. Thus far I have focus greatly on the scholarship aspect of NHS and have been dedicated to my academics.

I, Sara Samir, am interested in joining National English Honor Society (NEHS). Throughout my years at Calhoun, I have grown as student thanks to the wonderful English staff here. They have all helped me excel in several areas of English. With my accomplishments and grades in English throughout high school, and after completing a few more of the requirements, I feel that I am eligible to be considered to be part of NEHS.
I believe I would make a great candidate for the National English Honors Society because I share the beliefs of the mission statement in multiple ways.

It is a honor to be invited to join the National Junior Honors Society. I believe I have the qualities to be excepted. I am a leader, have good character, participate in my community through service, and a good citizen. Therefore, I should be accepted into the NJHS.
I remember last year after receiving the letter from NHS that I had not been accepted into National Honors Society, as dreadful as it was to receive that bad news I learned many things that emphasize and describe my character. I noticed how throughout Freshman and part of Sophomore year of High School I was just a student who focused heavily on school work rather that combining school work with a social and meaningful life. After realizing my past I had to act on that and change the way I once was, I recognized how much I lacked in leadership and service within the community. After completing my twelve year studies at my local Sunday School I decided to help the school out by assisting the office and teachers by completing the tremendous amount
The National Honor Society is for high school seniors who have “demonstrated excellence in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character”. At John Marshall we really push the “service” area. There are so many different reason I wanted to be a part of NHS; It gives me satisfaction that I was able to become a member of such an elite society, it also is very rewarding to give back to a community that has done so much for me. Each service project I have volunteered at has taught me something different. Since July, I have volunteered at eleven different projects (over 32 hours), and I have learned something new every time. When I volunteered at the Marshall County Family Resource Network’s gift packaging for teenagers at Cameron High and Middle, Moundsville Middle, Sherrard Middle and John Marshall High Schools, I didn’t realize there were so many of my peers in need of simple hygiene products. It inspired me to help and give back to them by donating to Paws for a Cause at John
National Honor Society is an exceptional organization that promotes and motivates accomplished, versatile students. In order to qualify for National Honor Society, I believe one must have the mindset of a leader accompanied by examples of a strong moral character to support it. I have been demonstrating these qualities as an ambitious students before I began high school. Throughout my entire educational career, I have always strived to be the absolute best I can be.

Furthermore, I am a very goal oriented person and committed to achieving my dreams. For example, when I was in the 6th grade, I was introduced to the North
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.
I was thrilled when I received my letter informing me that I was eligible for National Junior Honor Society. NJHS provides numerous opportunities for me to improve upon my character development, leadership skills, and citizenship. Involvement in NJHS will allow me to hear other students’ ideas and provides me additional opportunities to give back to my
I believe that National Junior Honors Society can use an excellent student such as myself. Many of my teachers say that I am a hard worker with an amazing attitude. In sixth grade I attended Cambridge Academy and was elected President of my school, even though it was my first year there. I encouraged classmates by competing with them to see who gets the better grade. During my time of presidency I read the morning announcements. At assemblies I led the pledge of allegiance. Student council and I volunteered at the United Food Bank and helped sort food. Finally, I helped organize school activities and dances. I enjoy playing most sports. During sport activities I am often elected captain. Last year I was on the football team and even if we
The National Honors Society is an exceptional organization that symbolizes servitude and excellence in high school. As an attentive and responsible student I believe I would be a good candidate to join the society. I have consistently strived for excellence since freshman year by making sure to fill my schedule with rigorous courses and attending tough sports competitions. This made me a well-rounded student who can effectively manage time between classes and extracurricular activities. I always aim high and put in as much effort as I can in any task I was given regardless of its difficulty.
To this day, I am gradually overcoming the severe anxiety and shyness that I have faced my entire life. I currently maintain a 4.0 GPA with all honors courses while attending a plethora of events for Key Club, Able Ministry Outreach, Boys & Girls Club, and more. Interacting with people in these ways not only broadened my awareness of different causes, but also of how important it is to take initiative. By being in National Honor Society, I could surround myself with new people with similar great intentions for impacting the world--from those who wish to establish peace, provide resources for the needy, or more. To ensure future success, I will challenge myself academically with AP and Running Start courses as well as being more involved in community events.
