Throughout my high school career, I have continuously adhered to the qualities of participation, engagement and leadership through being a good citizen, and have not only begun to impact my local community, but also communities abroad in my state. Active involvement in The Boy Scouts of America has helped develop these qualities I hold and more. My volunteering in county-hosted Christmas events, multiple eagle projects, Brown Bag Ministry, street cleanup, student tutoring, technology assistance, and others has combined to over 160 total service hours in just the span of four high school years. Active citizenship continues to show me different ways of life in my own community and is illuminating. What it also creates is initiative. Through participation with my local fire department, I have been able to identify a need of my community and start to address it. I have volunteered my time for the fire department, and together with the Assistant Fire Chief, we are starting to create a new department website and digital

Not many young men have the opportunity to experience the adventure that I had, and I hope that changes someday. It revolutionizes kids to become the best they can be, and Scouts use me as a perfect example. They didn’t think that I could make it through Scouts as far as I did because I kept silent. Boy Scouts taught me about how to live life and do it with confidence, and I can finally tell my story comfortably and with

When my grandfather earned his Eagle Scout Rank in 1933, he unknowingly began what would become a family tradition that has helped mold my personal perspective today. He ignited a passion for Boy Scouts within my family, which continued through my father, and was fulfilled by me when I earned the Rank of Eagle in 2014.

A few factors highly influenced the moral growth of the main character in To Kill a Mockingbird; family life, personal experiences, and society each leave unique yet profound impressions on the young and observant Scout Finch. Scout is a curious and lively girl growing up in the racially-divided town of Maycomb, Alabama. When her wise, sage father Atticus must defend an African American in possibly the most controversial trial Maycomb has ever known, Scout learns to stand up for herself and her family. Despite the opinions of others around her, Scout discerns that the morals of her and her loved ones will always trump those of society.

One major controversy in effect today is whether girls should be allowed to join the Boy Scouts of America or should there be a distinct separation between the girls and boys. In the article, “Boy Scouts Face Renewed Push to Let Girls Join the Ranks” by David Crary, several girls across the nation have took it upon themselves to try and join the Boy Scouts of America. Some believe that girls should be able to join in order to gain the same scouting experience as the boys in the organization. Others including myself, believe that if the girl scouts aren’t happy with their scouting, they should take the initiative to make a difference in their own community.

My Supreme Court case is Boy Scouts of America v. Dale which took place in early 2000. James Dale was a member of the Boy Scouts and was in fact an Eagle Scout who got his membership to the Boy Scouts of America revoked when they found out that Dale was a homosexual and gay rights activist. Dale had been a boy scout his whole life, and happened to be an assistant scout master in New Jersey at the time that his membership was revoked. Basically this case was questioning whether or not an organization can be forced to accept a member into their home if their beliefs and daily manners go against the heart and sole nature of the organization.

I sit around a table of familiar faces: my fellow scouters, good people I have known for almost twenty years. But the faces are contorted with anger, and their voices are filled with acrimony because of the issue being debated. Should girls be allowed to participate in all programs of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), allowing them to earn the Eagle Scout Award? I feel conflicted as a woman who has been denied entrance to an all-male organization, but my greatest concern is whether this will be the final blow to the integrity of a great American institution. Research about the origins of this controversy brought me to the story of Sydney Ireland, a girl from New York who has called on the BSA to end their discriminatory ban against girl

In this day and age it’s all about feminism and how women are in second place. When in fact, the feminist views are misguiding and causing a huge impact on the education systems that favors girls rather than boys. In “The War Against Boys,” Christina Hoff Sommers supports her belief that it’s the boys who need help, since their underachievement is worsening and continuing by the year.

I believe that I already possess many of the “soft skills.” I have acquired many of these skills through my experiences in 4-H and Boy Scouts. I believe that I possess the verbal communication skills, decision making/problem solving skills, the ability to plan, organize, and prioritize work, the ability to obtain and process information, the ability to analyze quantitative data, proficiency with computer software programs, and the ability to create and/or edit written reports.

At around my age, most adults start to “let go” of their children, giving them more freedom to choose what they want, but also giving them more responsibilities. As of now, I don’t know exactly what career I want, but I have quite a few options. I have played guitar since I was 9 years old, and I am quite skilled at it. I am a very musically-oriented person, and I could possibly find myself in a musical career. Something that I have invested much more time into is Boy Scouts. In the 6th grade, I enrolled in the Boy Scouts of America. Before that, I was a Cub Scout, which started after my first grade year. The BSA is famous for turning boys into responsible, intelligent, disciplined men. Because of this, most companies, when hiring people,
