Reflect on the data and your post-high school goals. Why are these goals important to you? Explain how the data either supports or may cause you to reconsider your post-high school goals.

I am a Second Generation African-American Student, and I’m proud to say that my eagerness to learn is one of the many reasons for my academic success. Growing up in an African immigrant family, education has always been my prime focus due to the inspiration I’ve received from my parents. Because of that, all through my middle school journey at Sky Vista, I have set and accomplished many goals for myself. From the baseline of having a 3.5 GPA in 6th grade to always having a 4.0 GPA each quarter in the 7th and 8th grade. Now that my middle school years are slowly coming to an end, my eyes have been shifted to look forward to achieving greater academic things. As I am about to enter high school this year in August, I hope to be faced with many

In the first months of college, I wasn’t so sure if I wanted to pursue architecture, finance, or engineering; I was utterly lost, unlike many of my peers. Over the months, I pondered on what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Then, I realized I was never interested in obtaining a job where I would sit at a desk and stare at some numbers on a computer screen for 9 hours every day. Through my daily routine and utilization of time, I realized I found less joy in the courses I applied least outside of the classroom, yet was intrigued that with the many hours I worked in the studio. I could work on a skill in which I could use in the career I wanted; a path in which I could leave a legacy through molding the world the way I wanted to see

My primary goal for going to school is to be able to make my family proud and do something beneficial with my degree.

Happy New Year! How are you? I just wanted to update you. I applied for jobs through Americorps and landing one in Pittsburgh with a Non-profit called Higher Achievement. We are an affiliate to a national program. Higher Achievement aims to help middle school scholars from the Hill District and Homewood areas, prepare for High School and for placement in advanced programs and or top tier schools. I was hired to help recruit mentors for the scholars and create programming for alumni of Higher Achievement. I told my supervisors about my interest in communications and they offered me the opportunity to be affiliate Brand Manager and of course I took it! I'm happy to be getting my foot in the door. I hope you're doing well and looking forward to

My driving force is to help others, moreover, building myself to help others as well; with that, my short term goals after high school would be to become a mentor and be involved with Dean’s Future Scholars at the University of Nevada Reno. I cannot come to explain how beneficial this program was; it presented me with the opportunities for post high school and initiated my focus on long term goals since middle school. Unquestionably, I would be involved in the program, I could be an exceptional role model to the young middle schoolers to place them on the right track. From there I would focus on keeping my grades up while I major in chemical engineering. Alongside that I aim to continually volunteer with nonprofit organizations like Keep Truckee

As I begin my four-year journey through Manasquan high school I hope to find some great people that I will be able to count on for the entire bumpy high school ride. I believe that Manasquan is a great place to gain these lifelong friends because of the many stories I've heard from my siblings who have previously attended. As for my education, I hope to get good grades in all my classes. Most people strive for straight A’s and while that would be awesome I would be extremely happy with myself if I can get mostly A’s and B’s. All though I aim for these goals I mostly aspire to become a better person. One who is more confident, social, and hardworking. I know it will be hard to keep my focus straight 24/7 but I believe with the correct amount

Throughout my high school career, I have learned that being successful in school can lead you to many different opportunities. One opportunity that I was given was that I joined my high school's Beta Club Chapter. It was an honor to be invited to join because how involved the Beta Club is with the my school, community, and state. This past year, I was selected to represent my school as I ran a campaign to become the North Carolina Beta Secretary. Although I was nervous, I opened my mouth, and the words just began to come out. My fears went away, and I addressed my peers on the topics of educational improvements and leadership opportunities, so all students can succeed. To my surprise and delight, the two thousand North Carolina Betas in

This skills are not only going make me succeed in college but also for life.

Every year, around 1.2 million students drop out of high school in the United States. I do not plan to be included in this statistic my senior year. Although going through high school can be very stressful at times, there are certain aspects that must be addressed first to ensure success. I will try my best this senior year to graduate, pursue higher learning, and plan for my future. Even though I have many expectations to accomplish before I graduate, these goals are the most important as of right now.

After examining, history, income, and schooling, it is clear that to strive to be a lawyer would be an excellent goal after high school. Lawyers have always been very important throughout history, have very high income, and require a lot of schooling. Becoming a lawyer would be a great career to get into.

A quote from Nelson Mandela “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” As an Asian American, my parents have always strived for the best education for their children. They taught me their culture, values, respects, and the important of educations. Since kindergarten, I was taught to value all sources of education regardless of agendas. I believed that there’s never enough knowledge one can obtained. When I come of age and the time for me to explore my future, I believe that Central High School is my best choice for me to achieve my academic goal.

While busy with homework and extracurricular activities, high school students don’t think about what they are going to do after high school. It would be wise to sit down and think about the electives and activities you choose to do, that could affect what career path you go into. My time in high school so far has been a great experience. The freedom of choice in the classes I take make it more tolerable to come to school. I start off each year motivated and ready to succeed;however, towards to middle of the semester, I struggle to keep the grades I want. I’ve looked back on the trend of my grades. How they go down toward the end of the semesters. I figured out that I need to apply myself to my grades the whole semester and by an extension,

All throughout school, students are ask what we want to be when we grow up. Many of us know or have a pretty good idea, but others have no clue what they want to pursue as a career in life, whether it be furthering their education at a university or attending a technical school. There are other students that plan to start work right out of high school. Either way we all have a plan, and the purpose of this paper is to inform you of mine. I personally struggle in making big decisions like deciding what to do with my life, but then I realized I have been asking myself the wrong questions. Instead of asking what I want to be when I grow up, I asked myself what do I want out of life? what are some of my goals that I wish to achieve? This led
