Benefits To The UW-La Crosse Campus Community

Becoming responsible enough to manage my time in order to have three jobs gave me the strength to pursue my dream of going to college. Working at the local grocery store allowed me to earn my own money along with communicating with citizens on a professional level. With two jobs during the summertime, I strategize my time wisely. Acquiring the jobs I do, I’ve become a hard and dedicated worker, able to manage my time to both work and contribute to cheerleading, helping me develop a strong head on my shoulders. Also I’ve worked hard to make honor roll three consecutive years and along with merit

A path that led to this school, and the amazing experiences and opportunities I had and will continue to have throughout my last year here. Here is the place I’ve learn to lead in a classroom, develop my academic skills, and succeed in continuing my mission of helping others. I’ve grown into a woman with her own ideals and own convictions, which I just now realized has always been my goal in life. What I major in, what job I have, and who I marry will not confine my person to live a life where having one experience is

Throughout my high school career, I have come to be heavily involved in activities within my high school. I was inducted into National Honor Society in the school year of 2015-2016. I came to be involved in the Drama Club for all four years of my high school career, along with being in Student Council all four years as well. In Student Council, I held the position of treasurer my senior year, and was on the executive board. The music department also has been one of the biggest programs I have come to be involved in within my high school career. I have played alto saxophone in concert band all four years of high school, and played alto saxophone my senior year in jazz band. Along with being in both concert band and jazz band, I was also part

I continued to be an active Avid Scholar because of academic achievements and Community service

For some people, it may be difficult to manage time in order to keep up with school and still be involved with extracurricular activities. However, for myself, this was not the case. I have been involved in the Slippery Rock University Winter Guard since my freshman year, which requires much dedication and commitment. Competing in local and even international level competitions across the country, the dedication required for membership in the guard is extraordinary. My commitment to the winter guard as well as my determination in my studies has allowed me to prime my time management skills to be successful in both areas without compromising the quality of my efforts in either one. Moreover, I have also been involved in numerous volunteer opportunities including Special Olympics, therapeutic horseback riding, and sled hockey. I also have a job at the Student Health Center. Although I keep myself very busy, I have managed to maintain an overall GPA of 3.5. Through my shadowing experiences in physical therapy, I have seen that some days can be fast-paced; therefore, it is important to have the ability to manage time in order to accomplish everything effectively and

I have appreciated much of the process in which I have journeyed over the last few years. Many of my classes have not only taught me things, but have given me insight into myself, my children, friends and family. I have learned to apply some of the lessons learned with how I would react to issues, interpret scenarios and motivate myself.

As an athlete in high school, time management is needed to complete everything on your agenda even with extra-curricular activities in the way. Living overseas, I had the privilege to travel to other countries for athletic events. These events could last a weekend or even a whole week and work will gradually pile up. If we didn’t have it or it was incomplete it will result in a zero without a chance of making the assignment up. In college, I occasionally make time for fun and activities outside of my education. There are several distractions from friends, athletics, to even leisure time that may get in the way from my school work. My education is mandatory and my priority!

I’m proud of my accomplishments thus far in my academic career as a result of making the right decisions in the challenging courses I take that have all been possible through organization and paying attention to my teachers. Through cross country and track, I’ve been able to meet amazing people who share the passion of running and are focused on making the best future for themselves. I’ve benefitted from being a self-motivated student to continue working hard in and out of the classroom. An essential skill I learned was how to manage my time better. As I continue to add activities to my schedule, I use a planner to make sure I am dividing my time evenly to academics and

Outside of school, I'm thoroughly involved in my community. I've already done one hundred and fifty-five hours of community service (and counting). I'm mainly involved with TCLBAF (Tri-Cities Lady Bulldogs Athletic Foundation) Inc., where our mission is to mentor youth in our community. We expose them to sports and

Throughout my high school years, I have challenged myself to maintain a high GPA yet, be involved in various student organizations. I have learned to manage my time and to become a responsible student by fulfilling the requirements and duties of each organization. I am involved in National Honor Society, Educational Talent Search, Book Club, Art Club, and Technology Student Association. I was selected to become a National Honor Society member my sophomore year and was accepted because of outstanding academic achievement, good service to the community, and leadership. This organization has helped me grow as a person and it has allowed me to contribute to the community. We take part in activities such as the annual toy drive, Thanksgiving food

Throughout my time here at UW-Madison, I have grown in both a personal and professional manner. The diverse culture of this campus helped me to understand people of all backgrounds and become accustomed to different personalities, and the classes that I have taken thus far indeed challenged my professional skills.

I’m always busy setting up for club events, attending chapter meetings, or finalizing class assignment what can I say—I am very involved. My clubs and honors societies help me stay grounded and remind me that not only can I get my school work done, but also help others along the way. Most recently I’ve been working with a club to do a DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) panel of success stories as motivation for others. I’ve been working closely with the club presidents of the, Contigo Club, to plan out the execution of this event.

I will commit and make time available for NCSSM’s academic program by continuing the techniques I am currently expressing. I believe that my current course-load has helped me to balance my extracurricular activities and my responsibilities as a student and as a leader. With being a sophomore in advanced placement classes it can be hard to juggle it all, but I find that my organization skills and planning in advance, that I can say atop of my workload. Even with my workload I am involved with many extracurriculars, and add more when the opportunity presents itself, and others can benefit from it. For example with my already existing activities, someone had thought of me, and asked me to play in the church youth orchestra. If I did not join,

The combination of academics, athletic activities, and extracurricular activities has played an enormous role on my own highschool experience. Now, I cannot say it was all butterlies and rainbows, but also seemed to torment my everyday life.
