Kaitlin, I’m elated to see that we have this class together! I have a fascination with poetry, too! I’d rather just write it than to perform or read it, though, I absolutely LOVE watching it be performed. You are so talented! I’ve had the pleasure of reading some of your work and seeing you perform it on stage; it is just amazing! It was interesting reading about you. I never knew you worked at Taco Bueno! I’ve known you for such a long time, yet I feel as though I have learned more from that excerpt. I, too, plan to go to the University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma after high school! Hopefully we will come across one
I am taking this opportunity to give my personal recommendation of Mr. Joseph Zeccola to be an LAUSD Teacher of the Year because of his unique talent in connecting with students and educating in a creative and engaging fashion. Mr. Zeccola is a very upbeat, funny and outgoing, teacher, who has a very close bond with his students, and makes learning a wonderful and entertaining experience for all of us. During my eleventh grade year I’ve grown as a writer as a well as a student because I was led to such powerful skills that I use countlessly throughout my day whether it be inside or outside class. Being in such a supportive and understanding environment has boosted my confidence so much that I've gone from fearing being picked on to being the
I can’t believe it is already time to write a Kairos letter to the youngest of my 3 daughters. Your high school years have flown by. Sometimes it is difficult for the youngest to carve out a unique place in the family and stand out in their own right. However, this is definitely NOT the case for you, Maria. You are remarkable. Your strength, resilience, self-acceptance, and intelligence are unparalleled amongst your peers. Although life has thrown you some physical curve balls, you have met each and every challenge with courage and perseverance. When others might have thrown a tantrum, felt sorry for themselves, or relied on others to carry the burden, you have brushed yourself off, gotten back up and moved forward. Although your determination
Hi there. My name is Genevieve (Jenna for short) and I’m proud to say I am a part of CCU’s class of 2019. I come from a small town in the middle of nowhere in Harford County, Maryland. I have two younger sisters, so I’m the first one of the family to tackle this adventure. I’m planning on majoring in communication with a minor in photography. I discovered my passion for writing/business/broadcasting when I was placed into a journalism class in tenth grade. I never thought I’d end up being the business manager and one of many reporters on a staff that created a 20-page newspaper every month for the next three years, and a main anchor on our daily morning announcements.
As you may know me already, my name if Felipe Del Angel and I am from Penitas, TX. I am currently 18 years old of age and will be turning 19 on October 23. I recently attended Thelma R. Salinas STEM Early College High School. Many do not know this but I was actually in the first graduating class of this high school and I am honored to be apart of the first graduating class of Thelma R Salinas STEM ECHS. Throughout my high school years in this new school, there were unforgettable memories. Memories that can’t be forgotten. This was not the same as a regular high school. It felt like home, with only 120 students per grade level, the environment was so easily to adapt amongst each other. And that is what the real world is all about.
This is Kaydence Mullin. Hi remember me? Haha okay well i'm writing this to say thank you in many different ways. Thank you for helping me with my math. Thank you for clearing all the rumors about me. Thank you for being an amazing teacher. Honestly in 2nd grade I thought i had the best teacher ever! Then i got you and proved myself wrong. I remember out of all our teachers you always made sure that my mom's comfortable with all my field trips because she's a little over protective haha. Well,thank you so much for being the greatest 5th grade teacher ever.
It’s been a great three years of being mentored by you in speech, debate, and finally, AP English Language and Composition. Through those three years of rigorous public speaking and academically challenging work, I can say with sincerity that I am a different person. Now, I know tenfold of what I knew before of high fructose corn syrup, trigger locks, and IRCA. It’s been an unequivocal honor to have met someone with such an intellectual arsenal as you and I have to wonder if I’ll ever meet anyone as knowledgeable even in college. You fended off every single argument that either the Debate Team or the 14 member fifth period AP English coalition threw at you with such ease and class. Wherever you decide to go next, I have no doubt in my mind that you will have the same scintillating impact you had on Suffern High School. Be sure to hoist that Tampa Bay Rays banner proudly for all those poseur Yankee fans to see!
Good Morning, Mrs. Williams Jones, Mrs. Babb, Mrs. Semper, Mr. Heaton, 8th grade teachers, families, friends, and the graduating 8th grade class. Thank you, for that very kind introduction, (INSERT NAME OF PERSON WHO INTRODUCED ME). And thank you, all for being here today at our graduation to celebrate our achievements and success. Most of you might know me, but for those who don’t, I am Jassnjot Kaur. I have been attending PS124 for nine years and I’m honored to speak to you today as your Valedictorian. Today is a very special and memorable day for not just me, but for all of us which includes us graduating students, our proud parents, and our pleased teachers.
During sophomore year, we’d practice annotating, and analyzing poetry for inspirational purposes and to perfect our craft. Poetry is my
I just wanted to email you because I realized I seriously miss some of my teachers and you are for sure one! I was just telling my friends how you are still be one of my favorite teachers up to date, and I realized I haven't been in touch with you at all, which is so sad!! Not to mention I found my old red vans (I remeber you had a matching pair) from either grade in my closet and I just thought it was a sign that I needed to say Hi! and Thank you! for just being a great teacher and making me enjoy English as much as I do! Ever since eight grade I been a total book worm which just sounds so funny.
I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for your efforts in helping me get to and from Kinkaid every day. Words cannot describe how appreciative I am to stay less than five minutes away from the Kinkaid. It's more than helpful as my first semester grades were terrible. It is the worst I've ever done in my entire schooling career. Thankfully I will not be participating in a 3 hour car ride every day :), tirelessly getting home at 8, and then proceeding to complete all of my homework, study for tests, organize presentations, do house chores, wash and prepare clothes for the next day, etc. There was just not enough time in the night. Anyway, thanks a
For the last few years, I have searched for the right curriculum that motivates me to better myself and my surroundings. Your school and staff has been helpful in guiding me through the process to join your program. My motivation to pursue a higher education has been paramount and your curriculum advisor makes me feel part of the family. Throughout my professional and
I’m writing this letter to you to let you know what to expect for your sophomore year. I will be giving you some advice for some of the classes you will have to take in 10th grade. It is your second year in highschool and you still have a while till you graduate so you still have to try your best. So the classes we will be talking about is English 10 with Mrs. Ladwigs, Speech with Mr. Oakander, Health with Miss Maresh, Spanish 2 with Miss Messerer, Fitness training (weight lifting) with Mr. Worm, Economic and Business Law with Miss Gestring, Geography and American History with Mr. Vanwinkle, Biology with Mr. Carmichael, and Geometry with Backstrom. I am going to give you some tips to help you in those classes.
Alright so imma start off by reminiscing over all the super cool memories I've had with you in the past. I remember being in spanish and english with you sophomore year, back when Ms.Buckly liked to make us stare at walls all the time because our class was being jerks. And then again junior year with good old Mr.Crozzlez you forced me to talk to you again and we had a blast laughing about his house blowing up (speaking of which I think he’s on this retreat, which is awesome). And then again
As of right now I am writing to you where you will one day be sitting. I hope that my first born is a boy named Elliott, but if you have a different name or you are a girl i still will love you the same. I am seventeen and at the end of my senior year. I hope that when you are a senior you like school so much more than i do. I am not the biggest fan of school, but I never have been. I hope that when you are in school there is no dress code. The biggest fight every student has with authority here is about the dress code. Jackson County's dress code in 2017 is a bit ridiculous. You can not wear shorts, tank tops, and basically the color white without getting sent to iss (in school suspension).
I am writing this letter to let you know how you’re doing today. This is the first writing you have done in years and your very first assignment in college. You were born and raised in Merced with one younger brother. Being that you are the first in your family to attend college, it is difficult because you two weren’t raised with the idea of higher education. Your brother is now out of high school, jobless, but is going to start working on his GED. You want to lead by example, showing him that college is possible even with a full-time job. Your hobbies include your two dogs; Dusty who is two years old and four-month old Leroy Brown. Your other hobbies include doing work around the house and collecting vinyl records. Work is your greatest talent. You are a master at what you do and you’ve been recognized as best in the nation. You have a very strong work ethic, but you’ve been out of school for seven years. You’re not sure how well you’ll adjust to studying and school work. You will be successful if you can make sure to not get distracted so easily and stick to your weekly schedule.
