Yearbook Strengths

As a candidate for membership into the National Honor Society, I already possess the quality of scholarship. I have received First Honors every quarter since Pre-K3 when I first started school, and I earned high average each year. I maintain my high average in school while joining other organizations, and participating in other activities. Also, I have been taking regular and honors courses while in high school. While an elementary student at Kingsway Christian Academy, I participated in each of the Academic Challenges. I was also the recipient of the Science Fair Award, the President’s Award, the Excellence Award, and many other academic achievements during my school career. As a junior, I am now a member of the Yearbook Journalism Staff and I look forward to having a successful Yearbook year.

I would like to be a member of the yearbook staff because it includes many things that I find interesting. I enjoy working with a team to accomplish something, working on a project that will have a finished product, and I love photography, writing, drawing out plans, and anything that includes having fun. I think I could contribute a lot to the yearbook with my skills of leadership, creativity, and determination.

I'm interested in becoming a member of the yearbook staff because it involves everything that I am passionate about. I enjoy group work, being social, and I love taking photographs and creating lifelong memories. I’ll be able to bring diversity to the yearbook committee. I will also be able to suggest many ideas to make the year book look much more vibrant than before. I’ve always dreamed of being in the yearbook committee and if I were to be accepted, I would put in many hours of hard work and dedication until the yearbook was complete.

Before the recruitment process begins the first step is to create a resume. The main idea for potential new members to create a resume is to show the best version of themselves. The first section of all resumes has to do with education. This includes listing graduating high school, graduation date, class rank, GPA, dual credit/AP courses and ACT/SAT sources. The next step is getting the perfect headshot. Thousands of girls go through recruitment every year so it is imperative to stand out. When including a head shot it is important to remember that “everyone’s face is part of their own “brand” and the goal is to be recognized”. Therefore, its best to choose a photo that is exemplifies confidence and personality. Having a headshot is a great way to put a name to a face, however recruitment is not based on looks but instead on character and values. The best thing to include on a resume is “all of accomplishments from the last four years”. Accomplishments include but are not limited to extracurricular activities, community service, and awards. It is most important to include any leadership roles because sororities are all about empowering women to have commitment and dedication. Here is a sample of a recruitment resumes. (SHOW IMAGE) After a bullet proof resume is completed the next step is to seek out recommendation letters.

I am eagerly willing to take the position of yearbook editor, as well as a student leader, during my senior year at ANC. I think I am good for this particular position due to the following reasons:

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

to this group. Having a positive attitude is essential when it comes to collaborating in any group. When something goes wrong, in any circumstance, I make sure to stay positive and help relax the situation by talking things out and taking it slow. Commitment is another characteristic that I am confident in showing. In past organizations like P.R.O.U.D., Silent Impact, Homecoming/Snoball Committee, and German Club, I have always made every meeting and made sure that I was there and on time so I could be ready for the topics that needed to be discussed. Being in the National Honor Society will also help for the development of new qualities to improve myself, and the group as a

Yearbook has become a huge chunk of my time every single day at school. I attend yearbook meetings and camps, create all types of lists and spreadsheets, organize and assign everything to staff members, but every single task is worth it. Thanks to all of my hard work and dedication, I climbed my way up from staffer to the most successful job of chief editor. I was able to gain outstanding people and communication skills along with writing skills. I have watched myself grow from a ball of anxiety and nerves to a confident and determined chief editor. Unlike everyday classes, yearbook has helped me to successfully learn about different people and life skills that I will be able to utilize in anything I am a part of whether it's college, a career, or even daily conversations. Anytime I am able to complete a task by a deadline or talk to a complete stranger, my heart will be content knowing that I am able to have success in so many different ways thanks to my unforgettable yearbook

However, just one accomplishment like that is simply not enough for the American population. Some students try too hard, by participating in school events and making good grades, just to get the attention they do not deserve. So, the people have spoken, and in several school systems across the United States, everyone obtains equal representation in the yearbook. If one person is mentioned five times, every student is mentioned five times. Of course, this rules out any racial, gender or sexuality bias caused by the creators of the yearbook, but that is not the important part of this tremendous change. The importance of equal representation is to get the students who truly deserve fame, those of who could not care less of school and their low standard morals, their rightful place in the yearbook. Their participation in the school, which could be considered null, is the most inspirational and moving part of the school systems, and represents each system with

To begin with, yearbooks are a great way to keep all of the memories and friendships that you made throughout the years, so in 15, 20 years from now you can look back and remember all the great times that you had as well as look back on all of the unfashionable fashion trends that happened over

I always wanted to be remembered in high school because I know years from now, someone will pick up our 2019 yearbook and look at a random picture and have no idea who this person is or was. I don’t want to be that random picture so I flooded myself

With many distinguished and honorable roles under my belt I truly believe that I am the perfect candidate for the freshmen president. I was one of the co-captains for the Clover Hill High School Varsity Track and football teams. I was also president of the relay for life club. Other leadership roles that I have obtained in the past would include; freshmen mentor, senior class advisory consul, YMCA camp consular, Middle school track student coach, lead vocalist in RCS Acapella group, Algebra II student teacher, and lead roles in the school musicals. With all these leadership roles that I’ve obtained through out my high school year it has taught me to associate with not only other club, sport, or musical, but with the individual members. As

• Positivity: Positivity is for someone who is upbeat and positive, which tends to rub off on others.

My current strengths include; my honesty and passion towards my work. I have always been positive and confident regarding my aims and targets. Along with these, I am a good decision maker, due to which I can make right and quick decisions. Moreover, I have ability to motivate others and do team work. I am also a responsible person, when I make a target; I work day and night to achieve my goal.

Trying to decide what your personal strengths are, is hard. For myself, I have grown in my strengths, and I’ve experienced my weaknesses. My personal strengths consist of: positivity, encouragement, laughter, and love. I pick these four because I feel that I am truly strongest in these aspects of my life. Being positive is a big factor in everything I do. I always want to be happy and joyful; not only to display Christ in me, but to make others feel the way I do. I want others to appreciate life and to feel any kind of uplift in his or her spirt. Positivity plays into encouragement. I make it my goal to make others feel better about themselves. My goal coming into college was to learn and know every person(s) name that I got the chance to meet. Just taking a few minutes out of your day to truly get to know someone, is such a blessing. It not only blesses me in new friendships, but it also blesses others because they feel that someone genuinely cares about them. Laughter is another characteristic I strive to pour out onto others. I laugh at practically everything. I love to laugh, and I love to make people laugh. I’ve learned the importance of laughter, and I just want to make one person smile every day. Love is my last of the four attributes. Love is so important to me. I love creation (Trees, birds, squirrels), God, and I love people. I just want the love that God has given me, to pour out onto others. I want others to know that I love them. These are my personal strengths
