A drum major is not someone who is unkind, unfair, or thoughtless. A drum major must possess qualities of leadership, reliability, and self respect. I feel as though I am prepared to take on these responsibilities, and become the Brooks High School Drum Major. I am a great leader, I am most definitely reliable, and I highly value myself as a human being.
Some children are not as fortunate to be given wonderful lives like their peers. Furthermore, the mother and father of every little boy and little girl do not always set the best examples. In “The Lesson”, Miss Moore seeks to educate the children of the neighborhood. She takes them to a store in town, trying to help them better understand the issues with income inequality. Confidence, intelligence, and passion-- these are all qualities that Miss Moore, a motherly figure, exhibits while impacting the children 's education.
Being a leader involves many different characteristics. A leader must set the example for all others in the group, because if they are to show up late to practice, there isn’t a reason that any of the other members should not do the same. A leader must take risks for the benefit of the group as well as make sacrifices for it. Becoming the leader of the group requires for them to be the most dedicated. They must work harder and not be afraid to lead the group. A leader must be willing and ready to not only give orders but receive them.
In accordance to the Camden Academy Charter High School National Honor Society application process I will be writing an essay based on the four pillars of the National Honor Society Scholarship, Leadership, Character, and Service and how they apply to me.
In Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, leadership is an important element. Without it, everything would be chaotic and unorthodox. Jack, as a leader, helps everyone to take care of the problems they are facing in the moment; and that is why I would follow him over anyone else in the novel. His actions resemble what coaches would look for in their athletes, but less extensive. For instance, a football coach focuses on the week they are on instead of thinking about finals. Leadership is a vital characteristic in order to live. It is not something that everyone has, but it is something that everyone needs. Oprah Winfrey is one who possesses great leadership qualities today.
In order to be a leader there is a few characteristics that stand out.

I’m at home on the high school parking lot. It’s the only space the administration grudgingly affords our marching band, and yet it’s ours. The band family lives and thrives off people supporting each other, we are there for each other when no one else is. I was elected by this family to be their band president last spring, and I have been completely changed. Despite the flashy title, I am still just one member of this 140 strong group, and I am still pushing to fulfill the responsibility placed on my shoulders.
A strong work ethic, a fierce focus, an attention to detail, and a strong desire for success…these are some of the qualities that make Miss Elizabeth Peck a very special young lady. I have known Elizabeth for two and a half years as her classroom teacher and Beta Club advisor. In every interaction that I have had with Elizabeth, she has been the picture of maturity and class. She is an extraordinary young lady who has proven that persistence is the most reliable indicator of success.
Ever since I was little, my mom stressed me to be a leader. By this she meant don’t be like everyone else and look up to a person, but be the one who everyone looks up to. Being a leader isn’t an easy thing to be because you must be a role model 24/7. In my opinion I’m a leader academically and physically. Excelling when it comes to grades and on the football field. When it comes to grades I display leadership by giving help to those who are struggling in an area I’m eminent in. Also, being the only boy in my grade level to be inducted into the National Jr Honor Society should mean something as well. But in football, this is the area where I display the most leadership. One example, would be last season in the championship game. My team
A native of Dutchess County, Jackie Chatfield joined Literacy Volunteers of Dutchess County Board of Directors in 1998 (now Literacy Connections). The Board President at the time, Mark Mulpeter, recommended Jackie to the organization and the agency could not have gained a finer literacy advocate and friend.
Unanticipated and lasting character changes resulted from my performing with the Wissahickon Marching Unit. Humility and coping with failure were commonplace lessons in my first year, as I joined amidst a “rebuilding” season with rookies comprising more than two-thirds of the band. Though frustrating considering the quantity of time I had committed with little external validation, the end result was resilience, an unwavering dedication, and greater patience. Unlike many activities where several elite members can carry an entire group, the marching unit’s nature necessarily and firmly instills the value of inclusion, as the position and movement of every individual is literally vital to the formation and success of the whole. For me, aiding
After I watched The help. I realize that there are many kind of human such as Skeeter Phelan who has a lion-heart and braveness to write a book called The Help. Skeeter taught me many things. Firstly, she is kind. She did not look down on coloured people and tried to help by writing the book to disclose coloured maids life. Second, she was not selfish. She did not left Aibileen and Minnie after the book was published though she was offered a new job in Newyork.
Folse stated in his article that ESL grammar is different. He referred to this difference as grammar accent, which is a set of grammar usages that do not sound like English spoken by native speaker. In the article, Folse gives eight grammatical errors that are common on ELL students. One example that I can relate with is “She was born on 1988.” I am aware that this example is grammatical incorrect because it doesn’t sound right just as Folse mentioned in the article. It took me a lot of exposure to the English language to understand that not everything that sounds correct is the correct grammatical structure. Many ELL students face this situations because teacher do not take their time to explain ELL students English grammar structures.

In the documentary Coach Courtney is an inspiring person, just because he worries about his fellow football player more than himself, and his family. After what all his players done and have been through he’s always tried to make everything right. A good leader to me shows who you really are. Depends if you give up easy or just keep
