Personal Narrative: My First School In Canada

Little Falls Community Schools have taught me so much knowledge in my thirteen years. I thought I knew a lot of information when I entered the high school, but I guess I was wrong. These past four years I have learned so much material from my teachers. Four years ago, I thought economics only dealt with money and that calculus would be really hard. Turns out, economics is not just about money but also about externalities and market structures; however, calculus is still hard. I have absorbed many different kinds of knowledge in my four years at Little Falls Community High School.

Hi Algina, I'm Carol and I also went to Ocoee high school but I graduated last year. I think it's really good that you decided to take dual enrollment because you'll be able to get your college credits faster. Even though you haven't chosen a major I think that you should try to volunteer or learn more about things that interest you, so that it will be easier for you to choose a major. Just like you I also enjoy cooking, but mainly desserts and also listening to music. For your two truths and a lie it's kind of hard guessing which one it is because you didn't give any clues on your post, but I'm gonna go with the second one that says you have lived in Florida all your life, because some people move to Florida after some time living somewhere

With the thought of finally graduating Westby High School, I had to decide what my next chapter would entail. I knew furthering my education would ultimately be my only choice, however the plan for the years to come were difficult. I contemplated for hours whether I wanted to make an extra maybe $5,000 a year or take on less student debt. With a personal finance class to help me make this decision my senior year, it was clear. I decided that to enroll at a two year institution was more beneficial for my financial standings.

On June 12, 2017 at a proximately 1205 hours, I was dispatched to North Brunswick High School for a report of defiant trespassers.

When I first moved to Canada, I became a victim of this threat known as bullying. In grade 4, in 2008, I had first come to Canada, from India. I didn’t know how to speak English, and so, people used this as an excuse to pick on me. One kid whole bullied me a lot was Ravi. He used to make fun of me because I couldn’t talk to others and told other that I was anti-social. Also, he would take any good lunch I had, he would make fun of me when playing games, and even spread false rumours. I first kept my bullying problems hidden from my parents, but gradually, as things got worse, I told them. They talked to our teacher, Mr. Douglas. Mr. Douglas talked to Ravi, and he stopped bullying me. Even though he isn’t the friendliest person today, he doesn’t

In June 2015, I ventured across Canada for the Encounters with Canada Program, along with my friends Luke and Edward. The program involved touring Ottawa with a group of young adults, seeing the various attractions and making friends along the way. Being a shy and occasionally introverted individual, who often had trouble fitting into new schools, I was nervous going into the flight. However, having two friends with me opened me up to new people, as I would rarely approach anyone myself. Soon after arriving, Luke and I took to playing ping-pong, and Edward started a conversation with our peers. Curious, I found myself drawn into the conversation, and eventually I was talking openly with others in our group, whereas unescorted, would have been

Everyone have been raced in different places and in different forms. These factors all contribute to everything we do and our success. I was born in the United States but my first every early memory has come from Mexico. Life in Mexico is very different from life in here, factors from the schools and the community.

I am Carla Sittig. I will be doing my internship at HJ Macdonald Middle school in New Bern, NC. I am excited to experience a middle school media center. I am no stranger to middle school, but have never experienced it from any other aspect other than a classroom teacher. In my current position I have the opportunity to advocate for media coordinators at the district level. My goal is to better understand the challenges of middle school media coordinators and understand how to integrate information literacy skills in the curriculum at the secondary level.

First time going High school. Today I visited family education center in Chicago Avenue with my mother and three siblings. We all take the replacement test. Everyone get a good scores. But mine was less then 3.point. They told me to go wellstone high school while my other siblings went south high school. after one week I visited wellstone school. While I was looking the school I was so tired.so I thought no way I'm not going this school ever away but I filled the application forms and gave them the envelope I got from the education center. After that week I started to look different school that's close to my home . and one I found Lincol high school. I thought wow this is nice close to my home also had a school bus. Ever summer end I started

Recently, I met with the head custodian, Mr. Antontio Rhodes and accompanied him on a school grounds tour and interview on the maintenance of Magee Elementary School. Mr. Rhodes spoke with a sense of pride as we walked the perimeter of the school. The state of the art learning institution contains 76,063 square feet and 35 classrooms which accommodate K-4th-grade students. In addition, the school has rooms for special education and inclusion rooms, physical therapy/occupational therapy, dyslexia and music classrooms. Furthermore, the school has four computer classrooms, intervention labs, a library, cafeteria, and gym all under one roof. Mr. Rhodes keeps the school immaculate by using an organizational cleaning and staff delegation schedule.

When I was in year 6 my parents told me that I would be moving from Annandale Primary School to St Brendan's so I could go to St Mary's. My friend Johnny went there in year 5 and at the time he was a good friend. It was sad leaving Annandale as I had been there since Kindy and I had many friends there and the teachers were really good but I thought St Brendan's was more important as it was only one year and then I would go to a really good high school. I liked the people there but I like them as much as my friends at Annandale as I had known them for several years and at lunch and recess we would play fun games like tag but at St Brendans it was boring as we weren’t able to fun on the playground and we pretty much did nothing. The teacher

Honestly, Enloe wasn’t the only high school I was considering. Although I knew that most of my friends were going here, and I knew that it was typically a smoother transition for Ligon kids to go to Enloe, I thought about going to Sanderson. One of my sisters goes there, and we live just down the street. Being able to walk to and from school would be really convenient for me. What really kept me from going there instead, was the fact that I wanted to be able to figure my own high school experience out. I spent a lot of time when I was younger trying to figure out if my opinions were really my own. Enloe offered me a place to get involved in chorus, potentially get involved in soccer and to experience the independence that high school allows. Having an open mind is an important trait to me, and I didn’t want set ideas for how high school was going to be for me.

Growing up I struggled with the fear of what others thought of me, and it kept me trapped. At high school prom I couldn’t convince myself to dance when all my friends were because I was afraid people would laugh at me. Maybe I was just a chorophobic? But I realized it wasn’t just dancing. As a child I always wanted to dress like the “cool” kids so one day in

In the year of, 2016 I went to Vancouver, British Columbia for the summer. My family and I wanted to go bike ridding on this very long path. I never did consider myself a nature person but I have a better understanding of its beauty. The hardest paper was biking around the river, I thought I was going to fall in by how close the path was to the river. In stanely park, there was some animals like squriels ducks and a variety of birds. They costantly were in our way of the path. Another time I was in contact with nature was in grade six when my school and I went to the forrest. Our teacher was telling us about citzens who are trying to protect the forrest from any possible damage. After the forrest we went to the field close to our school. We

I opened the door with extreme hesitation and saw a bright, white classroom filled with a variety of kids all thinking the same thing “who is the new guy?” Just ten minutes ago, my mother was walking with me to the Highlands Elementary School, the first American school I attended. She told me in Japanese, “America is a great country. I’m sure you will have a great time making new friends Kazuma.” Everything that I once knew, what I once called normal life quickly came to an abrupt stop and I felt hopeless. A big, white man in his early thirties with a great, big beard started to walk towards me from his desk. His name is Mr. Carter. With his booming voice, he proclaimed, “You must be Kazuma, the new kid right?” and gestured his hand toward me.
