“Mercy: the bridge that connects God and man, opening our hearts to the hope of being loved forever, despite our sinfulness.” -Pope Francis. The year of mercy comes every fifty years and I feel blessed to have spent a portion of my eighth grade year in the 2016 Jubilee. High school can be a difficult period, and I know that Mercy will help me through my freshman year. I hope to accomplish many things at Bishop Kelly through mercy, I know the obstacles, opportunities for guidance and kindness, and the goals I make going into freshman year will help me accomplish all of them. Mercy is a wonderful gift, it will help me through the challenges, opportunities for leadership and service, and the goals I have for my four years of being a knight.

Becoming a knight means opening myself to leadership and service. I’ve always planned on playing basketball and soccer at Bishop Kelly, and I knew that I’d have to fight for positions and playing time, but I know that athletics give me the chance to sharpen my leadership skills for off the field and court. All leaders have similar qualities, one that stands out is Mercy. As an athlete I have to show mercy towards myself and my teammates if I want to be a leader. An opportunity for service would be to take advantage of Bishop Kelly’s service project. I’ve volunteered before and I look forward to helping those in need whether it’s required or not. High school prepares students for the rest of their life, and Bishop Kelly offers different classes that I need to take advantage of. At this point in my life I can’t tell what my career will be, but with the opportunities for leadership Bishop Kelly offers I can explore new classes and hopefully find a subject that interests me. With the opportunities that Bishop Kelly offers for leadership and service I know I'll have to have a plan for my freshman year. This is why setting goals are extremely

To be a Steele Knight is to be a part of something greater; to be a part of a community of people striving for excellence. In the medieval times a Knight symbolizes courage, honor, and service to their kingdom that also compares to a Steele High School Knight which takes commitment, dedication, selfless service, and much more. We are brought up as a Steele Knight to never accept mediocrity but to seek exemplary and to never give up. We are raised throughout our high school career to push ourselves to go beyond our limits to never accept “I can’t do it” or “it’s impossible” but to believe that we can achieve more. To be a Knight means to be diverse complimenting others strengths with others weaknesses to build better people, role models, leaders,
Yesterday marked the ending of 4 LONG years! Through all the mistakes and hardships I've faced, I can proudly say I finally made it! I am so excited to start college in the Fall to Bethune-Cookman University on a full tuition scholarship. I am extremely proud of all my classmates and so thankful for my family and friends. Thank you God for this opportunity many don't get to enjoy. I can't wait to see all God has in store for me!
Response To David McCullough's Commencement Speech “You are not special. You are not exceptional.” This what David McCullough had decided to reveal to the Wellesley High School class of 2012, straight out of high school. McCullough had told the fresh ‘adults’ that being extraordinary and adventure cannot find them, but they have to find it.

Good morning Principle Boyd, proud parents, faculty, and fellow graduates, to this extraordinary celebration breakfast, in honor of Our Lady of Grace Catholic School Class of 2017. Yes, I am graduating 8th grade, but I still have to make my bed, be nice to my siblings, do my chores, I cannot drive a car, I must continue putting my Iphone into my locker every night, so that I will not be grounded! Nevertheless, I am graduating from Our Lady of Grace Catholic School, and I feel like I found a pot-of-gold at the end of the rainbow.
Attending my Catholic school is a gift as well as a privilege and I have gratitude for the opportunity. Because I see my school as a gift, I have academic goals and put 100% effort into them. An academic goal that I have is to work hard for superior grades while continuing to become proficient with educational skills such as writing, reading, oral and written communication, science, and mathematics. Additionally, I plan to continue to get to know myself and to learn about possible careers that might interest me. A career that I am currently interested in involves the fields of dentistry and surgery. Plus at my school, we learn about personal responsibility and personal initiative in our morals and behaviors. Another goal is that I want to

Senior year rapidly is coming to an end, I’ve had the opportunity to see many of my friends come to the exciting moment in their life when they sign that dotted line and I was still waiting on my chance. My entire life I had dreamt of the day to finally committed to a college basketball team, this was my goal and it had to be my purpose in life. January 18, 2015 at 4:41 PM I got an exciting text from Truett-Mcconnell’s head coach, Matt Sanders, stating,” Good afternoon Claudia this is Coach Sanders from Truett-Mcconnell College, and I really feel like we need to begin the recruiting process with you! Sorry to bother you on a Sunday, but I just didn’t want to let time slip away! I look forward to hearing back from you!” Here was my chance!
As I look ahead to my high school years, I am encouraged by what I have learned at Sacred Heart School, about God’s mercy. Psalms 103:8 reminds us that, “The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy.” So, I know I can depend on God’s mercy to help me deal with challenges and meet my goals. With God’s love, I can also be a leader and share God’s mercy with others.
As I approach the end of my high school career, I start thinking if I am prepared and ready to face the next step in my life. College is known to test a man’s responsibility in order to prepare him to face the world alone. Jesuit High School has changed my life throughout the years I have attended the school. Jesuit has prepared me for college and taught me how to become a more responsible man. When I was thinking of where I should apply to high school, Jesuit was not my first option; however, coming from a family of Jesuit alumni, I knew it was the only school for me. Throughout my earlier years at Jesuit, I struggled and was miserable due to the overwhelming work and rules I was required to follow. However, I soon realized what the school was about in its mission in turning its students into men for others. I have found that Jesuit High School has transformed me educationally, has made me a more responsible man, and has taught me to be a man for others.
Before I head off to college, I want to personally thank you both for being coach, mentor, role model and a friend to me. There are no words that can describe how thankful I am to have had you be part of my life. How cool is it to have actual professional soccer players be your personal coaches?
"Attention! Attention to all passengers! We’ll be arriving at Beacon Academy shortly. Please gather your belongings and wait for further instructions. Thank you." An announcement came from the ship’s intercom speaker, alerting all of its passengers that the aircraft was about to land at its destination in a few minutes.
The majority of what I observed correlates with the responses I received while interviewing Mr. Clark Davis, sixth grade social studies teacher, and Mrs. Elizabeth Immel, eighth grade language arts. When conducting my interviews, Mr. Davis offered to type the responses during his own time while I wrote the answers Mrs. Immel gave me within thirty minutes. My immediate response to their answers was that Mr. Davis was much more open with his thoughts. While Mr. Davis’s responses are more detailed, Mrs. Immel gave me a few responses I would also like to discuss.
