Statement Of Purpose: Student Council And National Honor Society

Being chosen to join the National Honor Society has made me realize that people notice what I do. It makes me want to put myself out there in a positive way, and lead in a way others will follow. I have trouble using my voice to lead instead, I shy down. I think National Honor Society will help me use my voice to become the leader I strive to be.

Everyday, countless amounts of people are working hard, trying to change the world for the better. They are researching cures for cancer or taking twelve hour shifts to help keep oceans clean. There are people who are working towards a better world, and making life safe for the children in need, the animals in danger, and the men fighting for our country. Seeing these changes happen has motivated me to want to be a part of these developments. I wish to serve those around me, and believe that if I can have a positive impact on my community, it can affect the rest of the world. Therefore, I have made it my goal to be a part of the National Honor Society, in hopes that I can help my school, Middleville, and all who have impacted me. I believe that I represent the characteristics of scholarship, leadership, service, and character, and hope to use these qualities so that others may benefit.

I am ready to fully accept the responsibilities of National honor Society. I am involved in many activities and I am dedicated to push myself and reach my full potential in each and every one. In basketball, sometimes I would get knocked down but I would always get back up with the encouragement of my teammates and work harder to win. My coaches really influence me on and off the court. Coach Batchelder will critique me on the court and it’s up to me to make adjustments and also off the court he reminds me to maintain my grades which are also on me. I play a sport all year-round, my daily schedule is school, practice, homework and bed at 10:00pm so I can get 8 hours of sleep to start the day all over again.

I have been raised on a dairy farm and my mom was also grew up on a dairy farm. My stepdad is a fourth generation dairy farmer and together my parents have taught me the sacrifice and hard work that goes into a farmer’s life. I am thankful for the privilege I have had in growing up on a farm and I want to help educate community members on the significance of our day to day dairy farmers and their contributions to society.

1) As a Roncalli student, I have been able to participate in many memorable service activities both as an individual and in a large group. From freshman year, I have accumulated the most service during the summer time when I have had the opportunity to be involved coaching youth teams in different sports. This service is the most special to me because it is a way for me to volunteer in activities that I myself love and have a passion for. It has taught me a lot, and I think I have gotten as much out of it as the girls I coach have. Another notable service is the service I was able to participate in with my classmates as a volunteer at Journey Home. This service really opened my eyes to the issues people and families face here in Aberdeen. I was happy that I was able to experience and learn something new while helping a cause and helping people in my own community that I otherwise would have never known about. This year, I was also able to volunteer to be a group leader at a Roncalli Junior High Retreat. When I was younger I always knew it was something I wanted to experience and I loved being there. It was great to meet the younger kids and help them along throughout the day while they experienced a retreat for the first time. I hope to continue these service activities as I get older and move out of my time in high school wherever I end up.

It would be a great privilege it be inducted into the National Honors Society, and I am thrilled to be considered for such an honor. Being a part of the National Honors Society has been my goal ever since I started middle school. It is truly exciting to have the chance to engage and make an impression upon the society within the near future. Students who are to be considered as candidates for National Honors Society must excel in four main pillars of success. These pillars are scholarship, leadership, service, and character. I believe that I meet these requirements,

Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character are the four pillars of National Honor Society(NHS) and are all qualities that I posses. Ever since I was young I have looked up to those who were members of National Honor Society because I always believed that they were the true definition of an exceptional person. Being in National Honor Society has been what I have strived for through my middle and high school years. I am honored to be a candidate for this wonderful program and throughout this essay I hope you are able to learn more about me and why I am a good fit for National Honor Society.

The National Honor Society is a group whose members are known for their academic accomplishments, leadership, and integrity. This group is greatly prestigious and I am honored to be invited to apply. This group also contributes a great deal towards the community, which is something that I am interested in doing more of. Until now, I have not gone out of my way to do much service and being in this group, I would have a higher motivation to do so. I would like to experience more giving to the community because whenever I have helped others, I felt satisfactory and valuable afterward. This society would be an excellent opportunity to be a bigger part of the community.

I chose to apply for membership in NHS for multiple reasons, these being centered around my desire to become a well-rounded individual. Primarily, I see membership in the Society as a challenge to prove my worth as an individual. Considering the life-long importance of scholarship, service, leadership, and character, it is quite an honor to be recognized as prestigious in these categories. Besides recognition, membership in NHS would make me further examine certain facets of my life, mainly leadership and service, in which I am lacking depth. Through NHS, I would build up my involvement in these positions, and ameliorate my standing as a diverse, well-rounded individual.

I, Troy Weber, want to join National Honor Society to benefit my community and myself. This experience will help me with completing difficult tasks, handling a situation or just finding a way to talk to another person. I want to help my community because there is so much work that can be done. People need help everyday and I want to give up my time to lend them a hand or two. Volunteer work can lead to a better character and create a sense of care for the people within a small and large community.

The National Honor Society is based off 4 pillars: Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. School is an enormously important part of life if you want to become someone in this world. I stand tremendously blessed to attend Motley County ISD. It has helped me grow tremendously as a person. Going to this small-town school has been great. I have been able to participate in all sports that interest me, many extracurricular activities while still maintaining a job after school and practice hours.

As someone who loves new people and new experiences, I am confident I would be an energetic and positive contribution to my class and community. Having gone through two knee surgeries within two years I found that positivity is an invaluable part of recovering as well as maintaining the same drive and passion as before the two injuries. The ability to be positive is a precursor to building resiliency, and is, therefore, one of the most essential traits a successful person can have. In addition to staying positive and upbeat, I also find it imperative to give back to the community in which I live, wherever that community may be. Participating in the National Honor Society instilled in me the significance of serving one's community. Helping the

Being in National Honors Society is something that I have always wanted to be apart of since I was in primary school. Being in it my 8th grade year was very inspiring on helping me build my citizenship goals, which later helped me get a job and be a good role model to others. 8th grade year being in NHS we had many important task to fulfill. Setting up majority of the school dances and rewarding students for their positive outlooks along with their uplifting attitudes. Leaving middle school, becoming a freshman, I knew I wanted to be a lifelong member with NHS. Knowing I had to work hard during my years in high school to get accepted back into NHS my junior year was a high school goal. When I received the letter stating I would be representing

I want to provide a positive attitude that can help improve the National Honor Society. It might seem like something simple and worthless to some, but to me having a positive attitude in the face of adversity makes me a stronger person. Unlike others whom can provide incredible ideas or stupendous promises, the only thing that I truly offer to NHS is that I would work hard no matter what in order to help the Cardinal Hayes community grow. I'll become a team player that can understand what it takes to properly accomplish goals that the team aims for, when others are looking at the horrible things at the present moment I wanna be the person that anyone can rely on. My personal desire is to help the organization overcome obstacles and to be able

Any person who leads a group of people knows that successful leadership mandates responsibility for the status of the group. Though the status may change, the fact that the leader is significantly responsible for the status does not. Unfortunately, a negative status often encourages the group to point fingers at the leader, while a positive status encourages the group to pat itself on the back. However, if there is any wisdom I have gleaned in my seventeen-and-a-half year existence, it is that lamenting human nature is as useful as trying to appease a spontaneous, 9:55 PM Chipotle craving (my nearest Chipotle is twenty minutes away, and it closes at 10:00 PM). As a leader in times of great status and poor status alike, I know very well that
