Macarthur Girls Narrative

I think in the book The Girls by Amy Goldman Koss the theme is don't have friends that don't treat you right. In the book The Girls it starts out when Maya doesn’t get invited to Darcy sleepover. Darcy told everyone not to tell maya but when Maya called Brianna to see if she would come to Magic Mountain with she found out that Brianna went to Darcy's and everyone else went too. That is when Maya started getting suspicious. A little bit later that day

Growing up in Chicago, I attended a neighborhood school from preschool through first grade. Although it was an exceptional school for elementary kids, the education for middle school and high school students was not as adequate. Seeking a better place to raise their children, my parents were faced with a tough choice. When I was in 2nd grade, our family made the decision to move to the suburbs. On July 3rd, we all packed into our Honda minivan and drove 45 minutes to a new home in the town of Winnetka. Within my first year at Crow Island, my new school, I learned so many new things. I started playing the violin and speaking Spanish, neither of which were offered at my old school. I met my best friends that I'm still close with now. Over the

Being a student at Selma High School, I continued to stay out of trouble and remain focused. Also, I decided to become a member of SGA (Student Government Association).Being a member of SGA I knew that this would be an opportunity for me to stay out of trouble and focus on my schoolwork. As I continued being a member of SGA, I enjoyed helping others and putting my ideas in activities. Another thing that I did while being in SGA, was that I ran for secretary. The secretary makes sure that everyone is on time and in order.

In high school I have learned the true meaning of being selfless and what the gift of giving is. I have spent much of my high school career volunteering at school and in the community. Many students spend their years of high school partying and hanging out with their friends, but I have dedicated myself to staying after school every day to volunteer and help the Athletic Trainer at the High School, as well as being a part of our schools community service group, Youth Core, as an officer.

During our three years at Cupertino Middle, we learned a lot. Not just about quadratic equations and the solar system, but also about friendship, kindness, and courage. We worked hard, had fun, and went out of our comfort zones everyday. Who new that we would survive the roller coaster ride of middle school and be here getting our diplomas. But we did. Now we are going to high school, hoping we can change the world for the better. Using the skills and formulas we learned, we just might be able to make a difference.

My high school years, unlike the past years of steady achievements, felt much more like a sine graph with ups and downs. To begin with, I conquered my freshman year in a breeze. My easily achievable classes not only earned myself confidence, but also admiration and respect from my classmates and teachers. As a result, I comfortably acclimated myself to the status of a star student.

A path that led to this school, and the amazing experiences and opportunities I had and will continue to have throughout my last year here. Here is the place I’ve learn to lead in a classroom, develop my academic skills, and succeed in continuing my mission of helping others. I’ve grown into a woman with her own ideals and own convictions, which I just now realized has always been my goal in life. What I major in, what job I have, and who I marry will not confine my person to live a life where having one experience is

When I first started high school, I thought it would be like High School Musical. The hallways and the cafeteria would be full of students full of energy, just singing and dancing. Uniquely, Cypress Lakes did reflect off that hyperactive kind of energy with the morning announcements spreading our contagious school spirit which lead me to join red poet society and TAFE (Texas Association for Future Educators,) and FFA. Out of the three

I am presently a student at Buckingham Charter Magnet High School. I have obtained many experiences and skills throughout my time in high school. Taking several different Art classes provided I was able to express myself and show my creativity. Through my History and English classes I gained knowledge of the past that I will always consider in my future.

“Ma’am, I have to arrest you for drag racing and take you to court.” In the humid and early days of June, 850 young women walked the sidewalks of the Mount Union campus. Here at Buckeye Girls State, delegates were promised from all twenty cities, four counties, and one state that they could run for any job they wanted--even the top Governor position. All of us were going to get a job and help run the BGS government during the week. I, however, wanted to be the same as eighty other girls: a Girls State Highway Patrol officer. On the first of seven days at BGS, three real Ohio State Highway Patrol officers tested the eighty candidates to be a part of the State Highway Patrol. Only twenty were chosen. The tests were a written exam on Ohio laws, push-ups, and sit-ups. During the tests, I was ready to push the ground through the earth’s core.

Carolina Flores has had an extraordinary experience at Casco Bay High School. She had a passionate smile as she said, “I would redo my four years here again.” Her journey before a CBHS was different. Her 8th grade year everyone kept telling her only weird go to CBHS or it's a hard school. But her mother didn't wanted her to go to Deering High school because her older sister had a horrible experience at DHS. “My older sister didn't want me to same experience as she did in high school,” Carolina said. But right now she is so grateful and thankful for mother forcing her to go Casco. She learned how to come out of her comfort zone, for example, her biggest millstone was being a dj at her 10th grade year for the Halloween dance.

."Looking back, I realize how amazing and grand this school library was." (Steve Mockenstrum) this quote made me realize how much im going to miss the last four years i spent in high school. the thing i miss the most about my school is the chemistry lab and one of the greatest teacher and person i have ever met. Hancock high school might not be that appealing to the eye but the memories i have that are priceless, and unforgettable.

Becoming a part of the student body at my high school, Middletown South, gave me many academic opportunities, a few examples being AP art history, AP psychology, college level english classes, and many more. The sense of community led to my great appreciation of Middletown. Football games are a rite of passage when going to high school, and I am so glad I got to experience those events. Also, joining of my school’s choir and field team made me immensely grateful for the camaraderie everyone takes part of, in and out of school. Living in Middletown and attending Middletown South has not only given me great joy, but a new perspective on life. As far as I was concerned, I believed my entire life would be spent in New York, and would never know anything else. Instead, I had the chance to branch out and live an unfamiliar lifestyle. The ability to pick and choose from such a wide range of courses and activities to participate in seemed to be something exclusive to suburbs only. If I had stayed in New York, I do not believe I would be the person I am today. There is such a widespread selection of topics, and I found myself falling in love with all of them once the move

Currently, as a junior, I feel that the past three of high school have tremendously shaped my character. Arriving at the doorsteps of Manatee High School, I knew little of leadership, or service. To me, high school was and still is a journey. I've learned to give back to those who have helped me. Through various extracurricular activities, I've not only learned to be a team member, but a leader as well.

These past four years have really been a life changing experience. From a childish freshmen not only at school but at home too, to a still sometimes childish senior, one who knows when and how to control himself. This school and its teachers have taught me so many lessons that will not be forgotten any time soon.
