The legacy I will leave behind is my creativity, which is my art. I will leave a piece of art behind that represents me, my fellow scholars, and the opportunities we were given. I want my art to give people inspiration and motivation, I want to leave a symbol that shows what we stand for what Valor stands for. This will give the scholars at valor the strive to be part of their community. I want the valor students to take advantage of the opportunities their given, I want everyone to prosper and reach their dream. This all starts with a little motivation every now and then, I want people to be a big part of the Valor family. I hope that every student in Valor can make great changes in the world, face challenges and overcome them to be successful. Valor gives great opportunities and I would like it if the students at valor gave back to valor someday, and leave their own legacies. …show more content…
I didn’t think of making a legacy I wanted to Spread the Valor legacy “we're all here to
Because of this, I will leave a legacy for my family and others as previous generations in my family have done.
Our school has and will continue to have many great achievers and leaders! We have been filled with a great amount of knowledge and potential. Separately we can move a rock but together we can move mountains. We all did our best and gave outstanding accomplishments to this school. Nevertheless, whether our involvement was by trophies, by knowledge, or even just being a
My education belief is to inspire students to change the world. I want students and staff to be proud of their
My faith has allowed me to believe that miracles happen to good people despite other’s doubts; therefore, I believe if I try my best, I can succeed. To showcase my skills and potential, I yearn to sell my art in markets, take pictures at various events, and create customized accessories and commissioned pieces. In addition, I plan to contribute to community mural paintings, and collaborative pieces. Above all, I will be striving to display my work in galleries. Through my work, I yearn to educate and raise awareness to all I am passionate about. I hope to impact the world in some
"We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who gave their lives that the nation might live--(Abraham Lincoln Online, 2017)." Acknowledge, celebrate, honor those who have sacrificed their lives and limbs to move the mission onwards. A true leader will bring to the light of any individual deciding to retire, the accomplishments they have made to help the organization. By recognizing what each team member has done to help the organization, such as, what they struggled, fought to accomplish, and the long hours and dedication it
The value, history and love behind this school, how to respect one another and the campus. I have many activities and events that would help build up our Wilberforce community, also enduring the residents to bond together. From the beginning, I will create a personal bond with the residents, to ensure love, positivity, and comfort. I will be an asset to this campus by my genuine care I have for others, and encouraging others on a daily basis. With the role of being a RA, we need to strive better in communicating more with our peers. Engaging each other with different opportunities that could happen in our buildings. For example, “meet your Resident Assistant” during this time the RA’s of each floor and the residents actually have time to get to know each other. Possibly floor spa days, or girl talks every so often just to catch up with one another. More events can consisted of challenges between each floor along with rewards for participation. The past semesters we had similar ideas, although many didn’t engage themselves with the activities, which is another area RA’s can help influence. Other activities that involve everyone consist of soccer, random cookouts, and different types of obstacle courses. Wilberforce has a large space of beautiful land yet, we barely use it. The results of these kinds of event not only shows usage in the land mass, it brings
A person's great legacy can quickly be revoked and changed depending on the actions they take and their characteristics. For Beowulf's warriors their legacies were not as positive because the warriors did not maintain the Comitatus code and stay by their King's side until death. King Hrothgar's legacy is an example of one that was balanced from successful to a problem starter. Lastly, Beowulf's rule was very productive even though he was selfish he made up for it with his heroism which he was known for in his legacy. The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast the characteristics and events that shape someone's legacy.
“Our main goal is to create a space that brings together all kinds of students to help them raise awareness and celebrate differences in our inclusive school climate.”
Ladies and gentleman, we are gathered here to push the human race forward. We believe that by improving the educational system we are investing in our future, that everyone should be able to access the type of education that is right for them. Nowadays America faces a very distressful situation regarding the educational reach of our system, which has been engaged with several issues, such as unequal access to education, student dropouts, violence within the walls of the classroom, bullying, gender bias and standardized tests that put the educational community at the verge of a methodic and old fashion evaluation process which eventually lead to a particular lifestyle of the students. Also, the lack of interest in the matter of community service has been rising, as well as our concern for the safe keeping of the citizen’s humanitarian values.
The spirit of the Maurice E. Palmer Memorial Scholarship seems to be centered around community and leadership. I am prepared to bring both to Rider come the beginning of the fall semester.
A legacy is something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from the past, according to Merriam- Webster dictionary. All the works in this unit, center around leaving a legacy. The goal in all the characters’ lives is to leave a positive legacy and be remembered in future generations. They all go through obstacles to reach this goal. Leaving a legacy is an important in all the works in this unit.
What is a legacy? Is it strictly a visible, touchable object? A legacy is not just an object that people can see; it can be a dream or an idea. Although his life came to a tragic end, John F. Kennedy was one of the many presidents that served his term of presidency with compassion and dedication, and also, he left behind an unforgettable legacy to live on for the generations to come. His legacy was both an idea and dream that still affects many Americans today, as he led people to believe that he would make peace between countries. “Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty”
You’re on the ground. You’re bleeding, blood gushing out as though it was a geyser. You can’t hear anything, vision is failing you, and you’re just now realizing where you are. The setting is a battlefield. Gore and loss are mixed with the scent of gunpowder and smoke. You look toward what you think was the enemy; a tank. It’s barreling toward you, but you are petrified. You glance behind you to see what other horrors were present. Your comrades, brothers, all cowering in fear. You jerk your head back toward the tank. It is much, much closer now. Were you going to be crushed? Was your entire life’s cost the equivalent of dirt that was simply to be tread upon? No. You can’t believe that, you wouldn’t believe that. You grasp all of your grenades and pull all of their pins, and then you wait. You pray. The tank is on top of you. You close your eyes and scream your final words. Silence. You saved your comrades, and you conquered your enemy. You, in the last moments of your life, became just like Beowulf because of your sense of duty, your generosity, and taking the role of a hero.
Inspirations, such as Mozart and William Shakespeare, have been dead for centuries and yet everyone still knows about them and what they accomplished. If someone were to die tomorrow, you would not be able to physically touch or hold them, however, it does not mean you are going to stop mentioning them or what they have done for you and for others. People die all the time, but the gravity of their death is different because of how they lived and what they strived for while living. However, this is often dependent upon the quality of life that was lived by the individual. Fame is not the driving force behind a legacy; however, consistency and passion are the driving forces that can help prolong the duration of a person’s legacy. The very accomplishments that people have achieved in their lives is what make them a household name and is what people embody to continue on their legacies long after they are dead and gone. Eric Wilson gave examples such as, “if one were to ask a person off of the street to name the smartest person he or she could name, more than likely, that person would be Albert Einstein. Likewise, throughout the history of music, there have been several outstanding people, such as Beethoven or Mozart, whose names have become household names” (Wilson, 2011). These examples prove that even after death, the things they have done in their lives will be
As my school’s class president, there have been various times where my school was impacted through Jostens. Through the Jostens Renaissance Education program, there have been numerous positive outcomes. There has been an increase in our school spirit along with the engagement of the students in school activities and events. Students are developing their own unique character which they spread through the halls of our school. More students than before are engaging in school activities along with supporting our sports teams. Students are creating a positive climate along with spreading culture. Much of this credit goes to the Jostens program as their resources enabled the students to engage and connect with others in a simpler way.
