My Reflection Of The Humanities And Communications Program

We are encouraged to be creative and hone our skills in an area of interest through these programs in STEM. Similar to having a major in college, students at a magnet school have a specialized area that they can take classes in, along with the basic academic courses. The senior internships allow for a deeper, hands-on, understanding of a topic that we are deciding to dedicate our lives to. Wheeler’s courses are well designed to challenge and guide students, allowing them to excel in the future. Students who are in this program are encouraged to regard events from many points of view and be more open minded, advancing us in life by interactions and communications.

The Wheeler Magnet program offers a variety of specialized programs that students can choose from, along with opportunities that are not given in a normal class. Students are encouraged to be creative and to hone their skills in their area of interest. Programs such as visual and performing arts, mathematics, sciences, and many others are available for students to choose from.

The faculty and staff of Robert A. Cross share the same philosophy. We, the faculty and staff of Robert A. Cross Middle Magnet School, believe that all students can learn, and we are committed to providing students with the kind of learning opportunities that make school important, challenging, joyful, and fair. We also believe that adolescents are at a critical and unique stage in their lives; therefore, we will work cooperatively to help them develop physically, emotionally, socially, behaviorally and most important, intellectually. Our major focus is to promote academic excellence through core academic subjects and life connections programs.

Why would students want to attend a magnet school? The reason may be because magnet schools offer a variety of specialized programs that students can choose from. Programs such as visual and performing arts, mathematics, sciences, and many others are available for students to choose from. Similar to having a major in college, students at magnet schools have their own specialized area that they can take classes in, in addition to basic academic classes. They are encouraged to be creative and to hone their skills in their area of interest.

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.

While most schools have a mission and vision statement, what we believe is truly powerful about Salk is the unity amongst staff to bring the mission and vision to life during the traditional school day and beyond. When the magnet curriculum was created and implemented, the teaching staff wanted to ensure that it was integrated throughout every discipline. To continue support and enhancement of our school's mission and vision statements, we created two very important goals. The first was, a commitment to provide excellence in STEM instruction by promoting equity in STEM literacy among all genders and races, and inspiring students to develop STEM skills. The second goal was to promote 21st Century Skills and increase academic performance among

I have always been fascinated with all things digital media and during college hope to further confirm my career choice of digital communications. I have already experienced a taste of what broadcasting and journalism can be through my high school extracurricular activities, but in college I plan to dive even deeper into those passions. During college I also plan to remain fully committed to demonstrating my academic abilities. I know being in the Honors College program I will be able to connect with intelligent, hardworking people who feel the same. I am excited to experience the community on the Ball State campus, particularly in the Honors College. While staying on campus for the Ball State Summer Media Academy this past July, I already felt a strong connection among the students. I can only imagine the community I will experience as a full time student on

The start of my quest to come to be involved with my university began with freshman orientation on the seventeenth of August. This was the first instance I had ever stepped foot on the campus, and I was so nervous that I could hardly bring myself to step out of my mother’s vehicle. With a few words of encouragement, I finally entered the building where the event was taking place – the Fine Arts Building auditorium. The building was actually recognizable since I had been there several times during high school for choir trips. Once inside, each of the hundreds of freshmen were handed a bag containing pamphlets and informational documents before being told to sit in any seat they

Some certain students are into sciences or the arts. This will typically benefit from enrolling in a magnet school. Because many magnet school offer these type of program in theses subjects. And also many public schools don’t give children the same opportunities by giving them a program that attracts students. And also to explore the things that truly interest

There is one thing that a lot of public schools do very well is make them magnet schools for arts, drama and science but they never come

When my fifth grade teacher Ms. Orelli announced the applications for the Magnet Program, I didn’t jump out of my seats as some other students did. A number of students told their parents about the program as soon as they came home. I simply mentioned the program a bit a later in the week. As soon as my parents found out, they told me all the benefits of the Magnet Program, advising me to at least try it out. Walking into the school for testing, all my friends talked about the hours they spent on practice tests. I didn’t come prepared for the test like that since my parents instructed me to just do my best, showing what I know. Turned out that I got in, but all my “test-ready” friends didn’t.

Last year when I was a seventh grade, I made many intelligent eighth grade friends in the MathSci program at Roberto Clemente. All of them were wonderful students so it was no surprise when they got accepted into the programs they wanted to go to. Each one of them had worked very hard to make it to where they were today and inspired me to pursue the dream of attending a magnet high school at an early start. I knew that I would be competing with other bright students, especially the ones in the magnet programs, and that from personal experience that they would have an advantage over me. The only way, I thought to be able to compete fairly with these smarter students, was to even out the playing field. I took the opportunity to learn at Dr.Li’s

Though looked down upon by many schools, Arts and Humanities play quintessential educational role in developing moral imagination. The Arts and Humanities allow individual to grow and mature into their own person and not society ideal easily manipulated tool. Arts and Humanities gifts its students with the ability to think critically and build a sense of moral imagination. Which despite the misconception, does support the cause of democratic education.
