...nationwide program that recognizes middle school students not just for their academic prowess, but also for their all around abilities.The five pillars of NJHS make up my character and the person I aspire to be in the future. They are service, leadership, citizenship, character, and scholarship. These five pillars are also why I would like to be a member of NJHS. This prestigious program would allow all five of these skills be heightened to their full potential. This is why membership in NJHS means so much to me. Being a part of NJHS means I can make an impact in my community. Growing up in Bowie and living here my whole life, I have seen things that could be changed for the better. Such as trash laying in my local park and homeless people with no food or shelter.I would love to hold food drives, give back to the people who don't have as much as everyone else and pick up trash so anything nature has created won't be harmed. When people are laying down on their couches, there are people in need and things to be done. I want to be the person to get up and help. That is what NJHS would help me do....

...Imagine not being able to voice out your ideas. Think about the times where you didn’t fully complete something and got blamed for it. Awful isn’t it? If I, Jeanette Liu, became a part of 2016-2017’s NJHS Community Service Chair(s), you wouldn’t have to endure the feeling of not being able to express yourself. You wouldn’t have to deal with the guilt that eats you away because you didn’t complete your service hours. Additionally, with the qualities that I possess (responsibility, courtesy, organization), I would make a considerable candidate for the Community Service Chair of NJHS. Like many other officer positions in NJHS, the Community Service Chair(s) holds a lot of responsibility in their hands. Keeping a log and remembering to notify other members is the officer’s responsibility; I have the capacity to fulfill this responsibility. Over the summer, I held the responsibility of being in charge of the candy store that my summer camp had. In the store, I had to keep an inventory of what candy we had, the amount of candy we sold, the number of residual candy, and the total amount of money earned each day. Similarly, the...

As a student from Mark Twain Middle School, I am honored to be chosen by my teachers and leaders from my school to give me the chance to prove what a hard working determined student I am.

I’ve been an impeccable leader especially in the last two years as I was a patrol that many young students look...

...hardworking moms in an unfinished basement transform into an organization that feeds hundreds of kids every day. I may not love the task, but when I’m working I can think of all the people I am helping and be as happy as anyone can be. Why Do I Want to Become a Member of National Junior Honor Society? There are many reasons why I want to be a part of NJHS but I will just include three in this paragraph. My first reason is to gain social and other skills. Working with lots of different people on projects can help me gain more teamwork, expertise and give me the ability to work and be friends with people I don’t even know. My second reason is to learn leadership skills and become a better leader. Being a better leader can help me all throughout my life with any situation. People will listen to and respect someone who shows good leadership traits. My last and probably most common reason is to get into National Honors Society (NHS). Being in NJHS gives a way better chance to get into the NHS. NHS can help kids get into colleges and universities everywhere to change their lives. That was three reasons why I want to become a member of NJHS. ...

...I believe that I should be accepted into the National Junior Honor Society. I help contribute ideas to help the school and community. I am always willing to volunteer and provide service for my parents, teachers, or the elderly. Whenever I have free time I study or help my younger brother with his homework and afterschool activities. I am also honest, trustworthy, and a leader. Below are some of the strengths and requirements I have to be in NJHS. Leadership I am very good at help younger students. In choir we are separated into different groups. Without anyone telling me to I take charge of the people in my group. We did different activities so I assigned different parts and we usually win challenges. In band I am one of the older drummers so I have to work with the younger beginner drummers. In band the instructor is usually more focussed on working with the main instruments like the saxophones and the clarinets so percussion is at the bottom. I feel it is my responsibility to help them learn new notes on the bells or different rudiments on the drum....

...Loyal Chiefs, a division of 4-H. I currently serve as Treasurer. Not only, do I help run the meetings, but it helps me establish relationships with people throughout the community. For example, every March I dedicate an afternoon and help Pretty Lake Church with their annual fish fry. I am not a member of this church, but because they allow our 4-H club to use their facilities for our monthly activities, I believe it is important to give back to them. I help set-up, serve and clean-up. In 4-H, our motto involves doing things such as this for our club, our community, our country and our world. I enjoy opportunities such as this fish fry where I can give back to others and do my part to be a good citizen within my community. As a member of NJHS, I would welcome the opportunity to participate in activities which promote being active in my community, just as I do in 4-H and many of my other extra-curricular activities and...

...This memoir is based off of the book Warriors Don't Cry by Melba Patillo Beals. Melba was one of the first black students to go to an all-white school in 1957. She had to deal with people pushing her and threatening her everyday. She got through it by using inner strength she got from her faith in God, her mother and grandmother, and from people she met in school and outside of school. The students of the school had tried to get her to leave multiple times, but she persevered and overcame her struggle. I also have a lot of challenges in my life. One of my most faced challenges is keeping up in school. I need to keep my grades up to be successful in life. The way I keep strength is by thinking of consequences if I were to give up,...

...me and told me how much she appreciated me coming to serve them. In that moment I realized that a single act of kindness can lead to many more things. I learned to take that kindness with me wherever I go. Next to being positive, being a loyal person is something I take pride in. I would never let go of anyone or anything once I’ve made a commitment to it. For instance, if I was helping someone and they were struggling I’d prove to them they should never give up. Lastly, I will always set off a good example that everyone can learn from, which is to be kind. Being kind will spread through everyone and they will learn that kindness is a very important trait to have. In conclusion, I think I would be good member if I got the chance to be in NJHS. I am willing to work hard and will always put my full effort and thought into this program. I’d use all my traits like being positive, kind, and loyal. It’d be an honor to get to work in this program to help others. Thank you. Sophia Johnson...

...without their biological fathers. I never let this stop me from becoming a teacher because that is what I wanted to be. I challenged myself by taking all Pre-AP classes in Sixth Grade and that was the best decision I have made academically. I continued to keep up that 4.0 GPA and Honor Roll and Perfect Attendance. My grades were up to par because B’s were unacceptable for me. My classes were demanding but promoted me to continue taking them all three years. Along with my academic accomplishments, I also conquered extra-curricular activities. In the athletic department, I was named “Seventh Grade Female Athlete of the Year”. I excelled in every sport! I was apart of the Varsity Girl’s Choir and a member of the National Junior Honor Society, NJHS. Middle School was a foundation on how to flourish into a well-matured young woman despite everyone who doubted...

...The way the people react to pain is shaped by their total life experiences of beliefs, values, and customs, which they refer to as their own culture. Also, the nurses’ perceptions as well as the control of pain are influenced by the nurses’ cultures since it influences their stereotypes and interpersonal communication patterns (Al-Atiyyat, 2009). The nurses should be attentive and sensitive to the patients’ own cultural background especially when they work in diverse society. Cultural incompetency can result in inadequate or inappropriate care due to miscommunication and the possibility to make inaccurate assessments. Thus, cultural competence is linked to improving the quality of pain management as part of the patient care provided (Al-Atiyyat, 2009). Patients with cancer pain should be cared by nurses who are culturally competent and who refrain from stereotyping while providing holistic care to patients. Campbell, Edwards, and Fillingim (2005) showed that there are no racial or ethnic differences in sensation threshold but the expression of pain is culturally-driven. The care provider should not impose their beliefs on the patients and they should be aware to the cultural differences in reports and treatment of pain (Al-Atiyyat, 2009). Only a few studies have addressed cultural factors on pain among patients with cancer. In a cohort study, Rabow and Dibble (2005) explored ethnic and country of origin differences in pain among outpatients with terminal and end-stage...

...Essay 2: Assessment of the Community And Aggregate Population Aneilla Alcin, RN NSG 3028 Caring for the Community South University Thesis Statement and Introduction Understanding the relationship between health outcomes to the environment is part of the foundation of modern nursing (Nightingale, 1969). A windshield survey is an informal method used by community health nurses to obtain basic knowledge about a given community. It provides a subjective view of the various physical characteristics of a communal area as observed while driving or walking through a neighborhood. Community assessment is an essential function of community nursing. Understanding the various types of community will help clarify the process. The first type of community described is a “geopolitical community” (Harkness & DeMarco, 2012, p. 177). It is an aggregate of people living or working in a defined geographic area. The second is “phenomenological community” (Harkness & DeMarco, 2012, p. 177), which is a collection of people sharing common interests, or philosophies and inter/intra personal connections. Borders for this type of community are not as clear as a geopolitical community. A phenomenological community can exist within a geopolitical community. An example of this is the homeless. The third is a broader view, encompassing a society, a nation, or the international community of the world as we know it. The Community Assessment: Windshield Survey (Cut and paste...
