For example, I was a part of a group that put together care kits for the homeless, picked up trash at a park, and created blankets for the needy. Being in NJHS will give me a chance to find even more ways to do more service and become a leader.…

Ho-Oh, the legendary bird Pokémon of Ecruteak City is the embodiment of various Eastern mythological creatures based on the Phoenix.
