Graduation Speech : The Fall Quarter The Soar Outreach Program

I am an active member of my school and community. At school I feel that i've gained the respect of my peers being elected as Student Council representative for the past four years. I have also been elected the treasurer of the choir, and secretary of the band. I am part of the Ross Middle School bucket drumming group and have been casted as part of the school theatre’s annual play. After school on Wednesdays I assist Ms. Rullman in helping students with homework and enhancing study methods. I am currently participating in science olympiad and have in the past. I am also an anchor on the popular Good Morning Ross Middle School weekly news show. In addition, I have been a part of National Junior Honor Society which takes part in service projects

There is no knowing what my legacy at UC Irvine may be, but I will describe what my goal is for the next four years. Of course it includes doing well in all my classes, however I would like to accomplish more than that and at a deeper level. I would like to work with other students to make our community become more united than it already is. Fitting in is one thing, but making others feel welcomed is much more important. College is a place where connections and ties are established and everyone should be able to do so. It would be of great pleasure to join groups where as a collective we help not only each other, but also the community around us. The legacy I want to create is not for me but rather for the notion of an interconnected and involved

2nd Q: How are other UC’s helping their communities? How can we learn from them?

That is exactly what I did. I am glad I fought because if I didn't fight I wouldn't be here today to tell you my story that has made me who I am today. Even though I had some difficulties learning in school I didn't get discouraged I tried my hardest and wouldn't give up and because I didn't give up I am currently nineteen years old and about to graduate from high school and have been on honor roll for four years in a row and was inducted into The National Honor Society my sophomore.

Annie Mathis says, “I hope to see the organization go in a direction of impact. I want us to be able to touch more student’s lives, and work closely with the University and other organizations to do so. Campus-wide encouragement can only grow to city-wide encouragement. If we can foster a spirit of outward love amongst our own members, and they can spread that to others, then we’ve accomplished our goal.” (Mathis)

UTSA's proposed academic restructuring will benefit students by strengthening programs, increasing program development, improving academic advising, and attracting and retaining faculty.

The Morehead State University Honors Program opens the door to many great opportunities which include, but are not limited to, a semester-long internship with a legislator in Frankfort, a summer research program for aspiring physicians and dentists, and a year-long volunteering experience working with children in an after school program. Although all of these would allow me to develop many new skills, along with relationships across our great commonwealth, I feel as if the summer research program for aspiring physicians and dentists would be the best fit for me. As an aspiring physician, I believe that this experience would allow me to challenge myself with new concepts that will be critical to my success in medical school, as well as allowing me to better my research skills. This program would assist me unbelievably as I transition into my future.

I really want it to be a bigger program that is more active with the students in the major, because I really do see a lot great potential in the program and their relevance in the major. I’d love for them to create new ways to actively put people together in the major and provide a platform wherein we can work together more or perhaps just meet others in the major so we can collaborate on reaching our goals together. Not only that, but for them to maybe set up events and stuff to help educate kids on how to be successful in the major, because figuring everything out essentially on your own is so extremely

It is the goal of Principal Clemon and his team to ensure that no student in our school ever goes home without basic physiological needs, cognitive needs, love and belonging needs, self-actualization needs, and esteem needs. We appreciate your great support and commitment to the Seagull students.

Good afternoon fellow classmates, beloved family members, wonderful staff of Palm Beach Lakes Community High School, and dedicated Palm Beach County School Board Members!

My senior year of high school, I was apart of my school's recruitment team. Our goal was to reach out to the youth of the surrounding low income community, and encourage them to come to North Houston Early College. Where they would be able to graduate with not only a high school diploma, but an Associates Degree from Houston Community College.

The Grace M. Davis Class of 2018 has been through much together. From the first day as a freshman realizing that high school is nothing like High School Musical to witnessing your first riot, #DavisRiots2014. We may have never thought about it but we all went through probably the most important part of our lives together. We may have lost friends, but we gained even better ones in return. Some of us found our best friend(s) in these past four years, or maybe you found your best friend before that and grew closer over these past four years, or maybe you’re like me and found your best friend but didn’t know it at first because you used to hate each other.

Currently a high school graduate, from Alliance Judy Ivie Burton Technology High School with honors. Attending University of California, Merced in this upcoming fall 2017. I’ve been involved with Neighborhood Youth Achievers for three years know, an amazing, innovating program that helps students like me further their education and involvement in the world. The things that prepared me to succeed in school where my teachers and mentors, the class I took, and myself. Teachers and my mentors really gave me an understanding of how high school and college was and is going to be, I took into account everything they said to have successful high school years and hopefully college years. The class I took prepared me to hopefully succeed in college because

I was able to restore institutional relationships with CSU East Bay and the Peralta Community College District. A large percentage of our students attend those institutions and I knew that if we partnered, together we could improve student outcomes.

I’ve been participating in UCAN since last year and I’ve been able to observe several changes. I’ve been able to experience the improvements the program has had this year in comparison to last year. We decided to make some changes to the program and it has improved in many ways. We have more participants this year and that worked in our favor because the assigned presentations that we had mentioned in the syllabus worked out when it came to distributing it how we had it planned on the syllabus. Having additional mentors this quarter helped the program crucially because we were able to have different opinions on the way we ran the program. Having the rest of the mentor contribute to the presentations helped bring new idea to the table. Adding readings this year gave previous mentors an easier time explaining different situations that may arise when helping the mentee.
