    Back in middle school, I was a part of National Junior Honor Society (NJHS). We were the largest class to be inducted into NJHS. Being such a large class meant we would have to raise a lot of money if we expected to reach our goal. Our goal was to raise enough money for our trip to the Lead Conference at Washington, D.C. Only one NJHS chapter before us had raised enough money to go all the way to Washington, D.C. We were determined to reach that same goal, but things don't always go as planned. As a member of NJHS, it was clear to me that it was my responsibility to maintain the 90 and above minimum grade requirement placed by NJHS membership. To me this minimum requirement was the least of my worries, but for some members it was more than a worry. On the first grade check, about 12 of our members were placed on probation due to low grades. Our NJHS advisers worked with those on probation while the rest of us worked on our fundraisers.

    “Membership in National Junior Honor Society has become recognized as one of the highest honors that can be bestowed upon a junior high school student. Membership is, however, more than an honor; it carries with it a responsibility and should be considered the beginning of an obligation, not merely the successful culmination of an effort to achieve recognition and honor.” Not only because it’s an honor or a recognition, but I would like to be a part of NJHS because I’m very responsible and I…

    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…

    One breath away, someone is freezing, all alone. The last shred of warmness in his body will be gone. His heart will turn cold. He is one breath away from complete coldness.
