Washburn National Honor Society Chapter: Statement of Purpose Regarding the Washburn Memorial Library
Today, February 12, I am here to address you about the Washburn Memorial Library:
I, Julia Dahlgren, Vice President and representative of the Washburn National Honor Society, am here this evening to discuss the issue of closing the Washburn town library. Our community rests upon the fragile structures of historical monuments and the atmosphere that we, as Washburn residents, have provided to our little town. By continuously reprimanding vital elements of Washburn, we are not only stripping away the essence of “small town living” but we are also losing parts of ourselves: our bank has faltered, our schools are struggling, our recreation department

    I want to be a member of the Matoaca National Junior Honor Society because I believe it will be able to help motivate me. Although I find that I am NJHS material, I think that this will be able to help me know that I am working for something, and thereby make it more urgent to do good. For example, my time in Scouts has shown me the importance of setting goals. When I discovered that new requirements would be forced on you if you didn’t complete them by the end of the year, I began buckling down on my and others requirements (as assistant patrol leader, I am supposed to help my patrol members.) Whereas my campfire plans were extremely rushed, simply because I didn’t find that they would be needed to be done.…

    I believe I am a good candidate to be selected for the Robert Vela High School National Honor Society because I am a dedicated student. My grades do reflect my abilities as a student, but my work ethic in the co-curricular activities that I participate is what really defines it as I put a lot of time and effort into them. In U.I.L. calculator applications, which is the main activity that I partake in, I sacrifice my time almost everyday after school and sometimes my lunch period throughout the school year, as well as the majority of my Saturdays to compete and practice. Not a lot of students would give up this much time and effort unless they are very dedicated. This also reflects my leadership and character as one has to work and communicate…

Of course, it is obvious that being president of my middle school’s National Junior Honor Society is nowhere near being the president of the United States. But in fact, my experience depicts a quite harrowing and concerning aspect of presidency. In an interwoven city and school, creating close relationships was inevitable.…
