Natural helpers is a national club that’s sole purpose is to serve the students of their school. At Park City High School, we constantly have new students moving in, so our biggest concern is implementing them into a comfortable and inviting school environment. Serving on the board of Natural Helpers for my junior and senior year as a Junior Representative and Communications Director has given me the opportunity to serve others and learn how to help organize a club. Both years, my favorite part of Natural Helpers has been getting to tour new students around the school. Switching schools and moving to a new city can be super hard especially during High School so my biggest concerns are that these students feel comfortable in their new surroundings, know where and when their classes are, and have someone to sit with at lunch. …show more content…
Moving to a new school is a super hard social change and I think it would be comforting to know that you have a friend and someone who will be there for you. I also help with the administrative side of the club by send out meeting reminders and touring times to the members. I enjoy being organized and wantI to make sure everything goes smoothly for these new students and those in charge of helping them. With the more social parts of the club, I get to help plan and attend activities for welcoming the new students, such as “The Welcome to School Barbecue”. We have a BBQ at lunch on the first day of school so that the Natural Helpers can meet all of the new kids and put names with faces. I have helped with planning the food and serving and being greeter to the new people to our
I wanted to touch base with you all and thank you for your time and participation in our early intervention program. Overall, I think it has been a positive and appreciated service to our customers.
“Leaders don 't create followers, they create more leaders,” Tom Peter famously proclaimed. As the principal of Crestview Elementary, I have always taken this quote to heart by continuous striving to empower my faculty and staff. Most recently, I have decided to train my assistant principal, Kathy Robinson, who was appointed to her position this summer after ten years as a classroom teacher. I quickly recognized that she possessed many of the qualities that make great leaders. Kathy is an excellent communicator, a great problem solver, innovative, very personable, and cares about the students and staff (Sheninger, 2011). Therefore, I have decided to mentor her and hone her skills so that she will be prepared for a transition to the role of principal.
I am involved with even more students within my school now. I expanded my circles when I was explaining what the club is and convincing new people to join the club. Now with regular meetings I am becoming more immersed into these new social circles helping me to understand their needs along with mine.
Assist agents are not remaining available because they get regular CG calls, and that prevents them from helping other agents. Because they are not in available, we are dropping these calls. We’ve had calls holding for over 20 minutes, which is horrible. Either we have a talk with our assist agents, or get a small dedicated group to take these calls.
I believe that I embody the National Honor Society pillars of character and leadership both inside and outside of school. I exhibit strong character in the way that I treat my friends, classmates, and acquaintances with respect and kindness. I try to be inclusive and welcoming to others, especially if they are in a situation that is uncomfortable for them. As someone who has attended my school for 11 years, I feel a responsibility to include students who are new to the school. I have a few friends who transferred schools in middle and high school. During their transitions, I have tried to include them in my friend group, invite them to school activities, and generally make them feel comfortable at their new school. In this way, I demonstrate
When I first come here, it is tough for me to make friends because all of the students here come from different backgrounds. I managed to overcome that problem by engaging with the clubs’ activities and participating in volunteering programs. I improved my self-confidence by make a lot of friends from day to day. This gives me a good impression that being in a wonderful college like Bunker Hill Community College really helps students to build themselves by brushing up their potentials. By connecting with people every day and knowing others, we can brush up our communication skills as well as widen our knowledge. Based from these experiences, I promised to myself to help the new students adapting themselves in the new world attracting them to get involved with clubs, activities and volunteering
Joining a club blind of who else was joining challenged me to interact and develop relationships with people who would have otherwise been strangers to me. This helped improve the quality of the High School experience of others and myself as it helped form bonds that will continue post-graduation. Participating in activities with these new friends from Key Club has made me a better person because these relationships have acted as training wheel in the process of associating servitude with fun. Most importantly though, the expansion of my social life through Key Club has helped me cope with the stress of
I am Lance Corporal Josiah Freeman. I live in Oklahoma City and the reason why I am sending this letter is because the number of homeless people in Oklahoma City is unacceptable and must be fixed. People should not have to live on the streets because it is unhealthy and can lead to mental health issues. The homeless shelters are constantly bombarded with hundreds of hungry and hopeless people every night. Seeing the streets flooded with homeless people has been a sore sight for Oklahoma City and has been for a long time.
In my junior year of high school i stepped out of my comfort zone to learn about something I am very passionate about. Continuing to senior year, every morning I take cosmetology classes. In the morning I get to school early so I can get on a bus to take me to a different school. I spend half my day there and the other half of my day at my regular high school. Going to a new school can, sometimes, be difficult and stressful. When you are used to seeing the same faces everyday this is a big adjustment. Starting a new school, you go in not knowing anyone. This school made it easier because everyone is in the same situation. The students are combined from all the other schools, in my city, make up the classes. This being said, everyone goes into school not knowing anyone. This brings me a sense of comfort knowing that everyone around me is in the same boat. As the year went on, I became more comfortable and
I think your job is very important, I would say that is the ultimate goal of a lot of work. When you work in mental hospitals you realize that many of the patients are recidivists and hospitalizations is something that will continue throughout their lives if we do not do proper interventions. Having the ability to help patients integrate back into life, teach them habits that will help this process and even teach them how to live with some kind of physical or mental illness is a great job. I always say: “which is the purpose of having the right diagnosis, describe the symptoms and relate them to the DSM, if you do not know what to do next”.
It all began when I joined a Alameda Community Learning Center. Its my first year at ACLC. As an introvert, I was not a chatty person. I find it hard to interact with other students. But later, I made some friends who serves on the school board and Contemporary Community
I am writing to you to inform you about my concern with the growing issue of homelessness in the United States. This is a prevalent problem in today’s society that seems to be getting worse rather than better. I believe that being it is the year 2017, we should have already figured out a solution to this major situation. Unfortunately, that has yet to become a reality. This is why I urge you to consider my reasoning as to why our country must take a stand and find an answer to the homelessness epidemic in our country.
As a commuter student at NHTI, I would tend to see almost exclusively the other students in the business program. This made the school seem even smaller than it is. I cannot wait to immerse myself in a new, larger community. Being part of a larger college environment will not only provide ways to make friends, but also provide ways to establish personal connections that can be utilized in my future career. Social clubs are a great way to meet people who have similar interests and from a career standpoint build these personal connections, which may prove to be significant in my future endeavors. At my next school, I hope to meet people who are like-minded and as motivated as
Moving away from home has been one of the biggest challenges that I have had to face so far in the eighteen years of my life. Moving from my home town to the collge dorm was a difficult transition that was necessary for growing up both mentally and physically as an individual. The little more than five hundred miles that separates me from my friends and family has allowed me to become the person I am today, and the distance allows me to grow and become more familiar with things that are a whole new experience for me. One of the many new things that I have had to deal with was making new friends in my environment.
Being a sound part of a community, you should continuously learn more and more about yourself. As a member of a club, taking part in meetings and activities let you learn
