My Education Experience

I went to the same elementary school from kindergarten to 5th grade, Suncoast Elementary School. My brother, my sister and I all went to Suncoast Elementary school from k-5th. My sister is still in elementary school, but once she gets out she’ll either go to Gulf Coast or Powell. My brother, my sister and I all had the same kindergarten class room but always had a different teacher. At that school my brother would hang out with the people in the office often so when I got there they all knew my name and was extra nice to me. This is only about my experience from kindergarten through 3rd grade.

Whitney Elizabeth Houston was born on August 9, 1993 in Newark, NJ. Houston began singing at 8 , at her family's catholic church. At the age of 12 , she was already singing back up vocal for big stars such as Chaka and Lou Rowls. When she was 17 she added modeling into her array of talents by staring in magazines like “glamour” and “seventeen” . But afterward Houston decided to go back to singing because she found modeling “degrading”.At a showcase performance in 1983, Arista Records president Clive Davis heard Houston perform. Davis offered her a management contract which Houston accepted. She then began seriously singing alone and with her mother in bigger setting. Though they performed together, Houston said that she thought her mother was

As I grew up, I had to start school, I went to a private preschool called Montessori. Finally the significant day came, I finally switched to a public elementary school named Worthington Elementary School. There would be a lot more kids and I would not know anybody. I was really edgy. When I trudged into the classroom, I saw a lot of people that I didn’t know. My teacher, Ms. Thaler, knew that I was new to the school so I had a helper to tell me where everything is and how to do things. For example, on the first day I had no idea what the pledge of allegiance was! Eventually, I memorized the words and the meaning of honoring the flag. My helper, also late became my best friend and she still is to this day.

My career goals are to start a business and to be able to maintain it through my expertise that I learned at The Art Institute of Indianapolis. Through the Art Institute I will learn the skills to better understand the field of work that I am interested in; Including things such as communication skills, time management, technical competency, and above all else the ability to work with co-workers. The Art Institute is a great place to learn all those skills and many more, giving me everything I need to have a successful business. In order to be successful I must have two things, determination and persistence. Without those things I will fall short of my goals.

What work, activity, or educational experience has best equipped you for work on public policy? Please describe how this experience has impacted your personal growth and your view of the world.

My time spent in elementary school was filled with new and exciting experiences. Starting public school meant being able to meet new friends and teachers, and learn about the world around me. I was nervous to begin school, but once I was comfortable in my new environment I created many great memories I hope to cherish for many years to come.

After our family has stop growing, we moved three times until finally we found our perfect home. Growing up with a mother who works in school, my sisters and I had a taste what would school be like at a very young age. I remember going to my school running around and going into teacher class rooms and playing with their toys. I also remember once I was able to actually attend pre-k at the age of three! After that experience I was so ready for school! As a child I wasn’t say much my mom tells me

I remember the very first day of school, I felt isolated and misunderstood. When I got there all eyes were on me, looking at me as the new kid, I was sweating in the cold. I felt like going back home. In a classroom full of 7th graders, students were

The War on Drugs has been an ongoing affect ever since the Civil War introduced the drug morphine to the world. In the years since people have been coming up with drugs more lethal than morphine such as cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, and so on and so forth. The War on Drugs is dangerous and leads to many deaths throughout the years. America has set up agencies such as the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and other drug task force teams throughout the United States. Even though we may not be able to catch all the drug dealers the United States drug teams has put a tiny dent into this ongoing black market run by cartels and even the smaller drug dealers. In this essay, we will see the effect it has on the United States, the way

My own personal past educational experience to date has been a learning journey for me. Before I became a nurse I started out as a Certified Nursing Assistant I then shortly after that I obtained my CNA II. I worked as a CNA while in school until I was accepted into a nursing program. First, I obtained my Licensed Practical Nursing degree then obtained my Associate Degree Nursing. I feel that each journey from becoming a CNA to a LPN then an RN helped prepare me with a basic foundation in education and training for each journey. With each journey the education went more in-depth and in-detail than the previous. Education is learning theory no matter if you have a foundation on the subject or learning it from scratch. In my training, I feel that with each higher education level I was trained for more complex skills. When you train to learn new skills you learn to do something instead of knowing how to do it. In my personal opinion I believe that you put your education to use with your skills which helps ensure safe and effective practice in any profession. In this day and age with the evolving technology and nursing innovation, it is imperative for a nurse to keep up their skill level and purse education to keep up with one’s profession or for advancement.

When I began 8th grade, I moved to a private school. This switch changed my perspective on how I would approach my schoolwork. I worked with a better attitude because I did not want to disappoint my parents and waste their money.

My educational path has been filled with up and downs, it seems like it’s been a long journey with no end in sight. Like most people, I have been in school the average twelve years and have taken the further step in attending college. It is no surprise that I have had the typical school experience. However, there are always parts of someone’s life that aren’t just black and white. The unique obstacles that I have endured make me who I am today. A large portion of life experience can be credited to all my years in school. From the start of elementary to my days today here at VCU.

It was September 2000, I first attend an elementary school in San Diego. It was very rainy day and my heart was also raining because I was so upset. I met my principal and he assigned me to kindergarten classroom because I was way behind compared to my ages. I was fourth grade when I was sitting with those kindergarteners. I was so shamed to study with those little kids so I promised myself that I will get out of this classroom soon as possible.

Receiving a higher education has been a lifelong goal for me. All my life I wanted a job saving animals, as I got older I knew being a veterinarian is my all-time life objective. Although, I am currently a veterinary technician I need to achieve a higher educational background to completely reach my goal in life. Having a college degree gives me the nostalgia that I long for; being able to say that I’m in college achieving my goals as becoming a veterinarian is gratifying to me. Being a role model to my daughter is also extremely important; having her see that anything is possible if you put your mind to it, she will see that life is difficult and there will be constant road blocks but with determination and hard work success is within
