Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) is a state-based national non-profit organization dedicated to preventing dropouts among young people who are most at-risk. Mullins High School is a 100% free lunch qualified school where students look for encouragement. Mullins High School adopted this program to develop leadership skills and soft skills that are essential for our students to be prepared for college and career ready. As an intern, I take this opportunity to determine the support provided by these extra-curricular programs in achieving the vision of the institution. Mullins High school is blessed to have Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) program. The program coordinator Ms. T is proud of her student members and their highly supportive parents.

In D.H Lawrence’s novel The Rainbow the woman is faced with a situation: a lust for a different life. One that is not based on blood-intimacy like the ideals of her rural family. One that allowed her to face away from the pulsing heat of the sun and explore the “magic land” where men were dominant and creative. However, it is a dream that she may never achieve. Since he used literary devices such as Irony and juxtaposition, it allowed him to characterize the woman and capture her situation.

On October 2nd the members of Lakeland FBLA attended the Fall District Meeting hosted at Mamaroneck High School. The Fall District Meeting is held each fall and FBLA members within the district. At the Fall District Meeting our FBLA members have been able to hear from incredible keynote speakers, attend informative workshops, network of other FBLA members as well as having the opportunity to run for district office. The keynote speaker at this year’s Fall District Meeting was Laurence Mackler, who owns an international solar power company. Mackler gave an inspiring speech about if you follow your passions and what makes you happy you will be destined for greatness.

For this paper, I decided to focus my attention on one population that I am potentially interested in working with, which are high school students. The first person I interviewed was a ninth-grade counselor at Alain Leroy Locke College Prepartory Academy. The second person I interviewed was a College Adviser, placed through USC, at Diego Rivera Learning Complex. While the first interview was conducted on site at Locke, the second interview was conducted on campus at USC. For both interviews, I came equipped with my questions already printed out and ready for me to write my interviewees responses down. In discussing the challenges that both the counselor and adviser experience in terms of learning, it is important to first understand the population of students that both professionals work with. While both schools are in South Los Angeles, Diego Rivera Learning Complex is a part of Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), while Alain Leroy Locke is run by Green Dot Public Schools—even though it is still within LAUSD boundaries. Both schools have a primarily minority and low-income population.

In March of last year, Mr. Stauffer took his family advocacy in which I am included in it to Johnson County Community College field trip. Throughout the JCCC tour, I gained a lot of beneficial information. I was excited to attend because that’s the college I want to go to. The goal of this trip was to see different options related to scholarships, work-studies, and more importantly, the engineering field. Learning about the engineering options at JCCC and beyond has been a great boon to my career goal and a humongous step on the path I will take to get closer to success. Therefore, this field trip satisfied my expectations by learning the campus much better that will fulfill my assumptions towards JCCC. This field trip made me realize that

Robert H. Lawrence yr. was a very important of astronaut history, but also black history and he served in the military. I think he was a good role model to look up to and everyone should get to know about what he did. Robert H. Lawrence yr. was born in Chicago, Illinois on October 2nd, 1935. He graduated high school at age 16 and college when he was just 20 years old. He graduated from Bradley University and soon after he began his career in the Air Force. Lawrence completed his training and became an instructor pilot. NASA then recognized him and his skills were put to use in tests flights for astronauts. After he did work for NASA, some say that he helped majorly in creating the modern day space shuttle. But sadly he was killed in a flying

As an eighth grade student entering my first year in high school, I knew there would be some challenges. Not only was I making the leap from middle school to high school, I was also moving into a different district. The ideas of not having my old friends, and the fact that I would have to readjust my familiar schedule seemed difficult. Through my involvement at school, my focus on higher education, and learning to overcome the challenges mentioned, I am convinced I would be an adequate candidate for the iBelieve Summer Workshop.

As the actor and the musician Martin Lawrence said, “I'm most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life.  He's given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up.  Hopefully I'll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.”  Martin Lawrence's quote speaks to me because it explains a huge part of my life.  As a result of living in the United States, I have learned the importance of responsibility, trust, and opportunity.

Our single suffocating high school is like no other; an eclectic mix of ideas, connections to organizations, and supportive faculty create a student population with strengths that highlight their community. I am lucky enough to be both a contributor and recipient of this melting pot of support.

I have selected West Brook High because it is the largest public high school in my area, averaging 500 students a class. The school has one of the best academic, athletic and extra-curricular activities program that’s allows students to explore many career fields. 78.6% of the student body continues on to either a two year or four year college after graduation. I will target that percentage of the schools population with the various National Guard educational incentives we offer, such as tuition assistance. 12.7% go immediately into the workforce, from which the training from the National Guard would serve as a benefit to them, allowing these young adults to gain skills otherwise paid for by their pockets. The remaining 8.7% fail to complete their education. Sterling High School, as per their policy, will allow two LRDs (lunch room displays) and one school presentation a month. With roughly 1000 high school seniors and juniors, I intend to deploy other SEVs (school entry vehicles) to reach my targeted audience.

Also, EDU 230 Student Development: Implications for Planning and Teaching is held at Alliance Middle School. Candidates work directly with P-12 students before, during, and after class.”

The experience I gained from adapting to an entirely new school system was a challenge but I feel this knowledge can contribute to improvement of Clark and its community. Being a part of this organization will help strength my existing skills, abilities, and connections as it allows me further grow into my potential.

Walking into the building, the first thing you’re welcomed with is a marble entry way that leads into a large, brand new auditorium, The main office has posters of their students, in uniform, with them holding a piece of paper saying things like, “I want to work at ESPN,” “I want to be a doctor,” “I want to be a teacher,” and at least a dozen more professions that the students want to pursue when they’re out of high school.
