A Personal Narrative of My Appreciation for the Privilege of Admission into the National Honor Society

It is a great privilege to be one of the students given the opportunity to be in the National Honor Society. To tell the truth, I have been looking forward to this moment since I graduated as a member of Arista in middle school. The invitation shows that my hard work and endeavor to be one of the top students in school was worth the try.

My grade has always been an essential component in achieving my goal of being, if not the best but one of the very best among my peers. Last school year, I had a GPA of 3.92 (95.26% average) and an average of 98% last semester. I am proud of this average and also strive to improve more especially if I want to be in NHS and the nursing program. I also plan to earn the Advanced Regents Diploma and I already completed most of the requirements to earn it. Although I don’t really have a sport team, I am a choir member at church. Being in my church choir has taught me four things.

These things are teamwork, hard work, respect and leadership. My church is a branch church so I sometimes travel to different places for conventions, meetings and several programs. To be in a choir, you have to be able to lead the church and the choir group in songs and others. In meetings, we discuss many things like how to host programs where we invite people to participate in many different activities. The church is like a family to me, so learn to appreciate and respect them. Also in my former middle school in Nigeria before I transferred to the one here, I participated in several activities like cleaning up the school, helping to serve food and the inter house sport. My service, my leadership, my character and scholarship are thing that drive me to be better at what I do. And to be better at what I do, I need to work harder. An admission into the National Honor Society would indeed be a privilege to be proud of for the rest of my life.
