I believe that I should be selected for membership into the National Honor Society because I am a hard worker and I put my heart into everything I do.
School- One area that I work hard in is my schoolwork, my school work is one of the most important things in my life. This fact causes me to assume the role of leader in many group projects, which I actually enjoy doing. Helping others and working with other people to achieve a set goal is something that I genuinely enjoy.
Swimming- If I had to pick the most influential extracurricular activity in terms of developing my leadership skills, it would be swimming. Swimming takes up about half of my life during the school year because it is a full time commitment, being on the swim team as well …show more content…
German Club is mainly a social gathering for the members to talk about a common interest so, being in German Club has helped boost some of my social skills.
Jazz Band- I have just joined jazz band this year, I feel that my leadership skills have not been advanced and I do not have to be a leader in jazz band. But, jazz band is something that I enjoy for the most part. I enjoy jazz band because I can be social while advancing my trumpet playing skills. My goal is to remain in jazz band and possibly join the upper jazz band by senior year.
GAPP- I will be going to Germany this year in June, while in Germany my group and I have to complete an assignment comparing what German people eat for dinner and what americans eat for dinner. When we were assigned the project no one else was contributing ideas so I took it upon myself to get the ideas flowing and after a while of throwing out ideas to my group we all agreed on ideas we liked. I believe that I may have to be a leader while in Germany and I know that I will be a leader when my German partner comes to …show more content…
I would like to participate in more community service activities and I believe that NHS could possibly help me find more way to get involved/give back! But, I have done the Alcoa Christmas Baskets for the past three years. The Alcoa Christmas Baskets is a one night event that is held every year. People gather together to fill baskets with Christmas food essentials for those who are less fortunate or need help. I truly do enjoy doing this once a year because it makes me feel better knowing that I gave back. But, like I stated before, I wish I had other opportunities to help my community and give back.
Conclusion- Being a part of the National Honor Society would give me a further opportunity to advance my leadership and people skills. Also, NHS would give me a reason and open up ways for me to give back to my community. Getting accepted into NHS would be a great way for me to broaden my horizons and explore new things while also learning essential skills I need to go out into the adult world. I am thankful to even be eligible to join NHS and I appreciate the opportunities presented to me, thank you for your
