Mortar Board Honor Society Analysis
I would like to be a member of the Mortar Board Honor Society so I can be a part of a tradition that encourages seniors to continue seeking leadership roles. I think that experience in leadership is key to a person's career development and having the opportunities that the Mortar Board provides for a member to further their knowledge of leadership is really appealing. Furthermore, I value the same objectives that the Mortar Board stands by like your initiative to promote equal opportunity for all people, and your initiative to facilitate cooperation between societies. These are values that are very important to me as I am a minority at the school and would like to join a society that encourages diversity among its members. I also want a society

    Being nominated to become a member of the National Honor Society is a highly prestigious honor, and I am very grateful to be a candidate. I have always strove to do the best that I can to achieve the highest grades possible and to stand out amongst my peers. Not only do I focus on my academics, but I strive to be an outstanding asset to the student body throughout my years here at East Clinton High School as well. Getting admitted into the National Honor Society has been one of my goals since I first arrived here at high school, and I have recognized the standards for entry into the organization. I understand that to become an official member of the society, I need to acquire and demonstrate four key characteristics of an ideal National Honor Society member: scholarship, leadership,…

    The four pillars of the National Honor Society; scholarship, leadership, character, and service are the four qualities of a well-rounded individual. They have not only embodied who I strive to be, but have helped me achieve success and impact throughout my local community and my time as a national honor society member. Scholarship has helped me define not only who I am as a student, but has helped me prepare for my future. Without my drive to maintain my academics and pursue knowledge, I would not have discovered my love and passion for teaching. This newly discovered passion has helped me narrow down my future career, special education. Service, has helped me develop one of my individual characteristics, as I now understand the importance…

    During my 2 years involved in the National Honor Society I've come to know and love the four pillars of this organization. These four pillars include: Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character. Considering that scholarship is characterized as a commitment to learning, this pillar has taught me many things about the importance of knowledge. Scholarship has made me realize that knowledge is power, diligence and effort if key, and that you should do your absolute best regardless of the outcome. The pillar of service has taught me how to give back to my community. I have learned through the pillar of service that you should reach out and help anyone without compensation or recognition. The pillar of leadership has taught the importance of…

    I know that the National Honor Society is an honor to be in and I truly want to participate in it. I believe I am highly qualified and I can prove it. I give my best effort to be involved in as many activities as I can.

I am also in the orchestra and band programs at my school and I volunteer at my old middle school for the orchestra and band mentoring programs they have there.

    Joining the National Junior Honor Society seems like a great opportunity for me to help our community. I really want to join NJHS to share my ideas. I am a nice person to work with, hard worker, and will be happy to do any community work that needs to be done. I am a good leader, as well as a participating citizen. I have shown citizenship because I like to help people as well as teachers. I have gotten the citizenship award every year in elementary school. I have also volunteered for a summer job (still volunteering).I work not only to be the best, but also to impress myself with all that I can do. I feel I could be a great member of the Nation Honor Junior Society. I feel I am a good enough scholar to keep up my grades and be given the responsibility of being a member of NJHS. I’ve been on honor roll for the whole school year now, and I plan to stay on it. I am a hard worker at school and always trying to do my best. When I try my hardest, it shows in my outstanding work. My good scholarship is represented by my grades. I put the most important things first. I hope to keep my grades up, and maybe go to college so I can be a LPN (licensed practical nurse) when I grow up. I have the quality of leadership that I believe…

    Being accepted into The National Honor Society would be such an apt opportunity, as well as a privilege. By presenting myself as a member of this prestigious society I aim to also service my community and exemplify myself as a student. I have worked extremely hard to maintain my grades at an “A” and above average for all my scholar life. I have mostly succeeded up until my freshmen year. For personal reasons my average dropped greatly, but as you can probably check I’ve made remarkable improvements and will continue to do so. My long-term life goal is to better myself as much as possible and become a respected member in society. I believe that if allowed the opportunity I will give my greatest efforts into trying to maintain this society’s legacy and reputation. Considering my two older siblings have been members in NHS I think I’m well informed of the goals this organization aims to hold. The fact that I could be a third generation member has motivated me tremendously to try and improve my chances by becoming even more studious and involved in school activities. I would exemplify this organization by always servicing other’s needs before my own while still maintain my exemplary leadership qualities. Being in JROTC for two years has taught me many attributes which would, in time, prove to be very useful for NHS. If I’m allowed to enter I will continue to strengthen my skills for my own well-being as well as my community’s well-being.…

    It has been almost a year since I joined Alpha Beta Gamma. The thought of belonging to an honor society excites me, from the day I received an invitation letter to this present day. I initially saw it as an opportunity to boost my resume, but now I see it in a whole different perspective. Honor societies are organizations intended to benefit and group like-minded individuals together based on academic excellence. However, Alpha Beta Gamma is more than just your average honor society. It is a place where intelligent minds come together to share ideas and provide services to the community. This means volunteering to assist certain organizations and businesses who request our help. Not only do we aid businesses, we also assist individuals by teaching…
