Through my participation in Mount Si High School’s scholastics and extracurricular programs, I have become more outgoing, more confident, and a better leader. It began in the classes where there were presentations and group projects. These helped me practice my communication skills as well as my leadership skills. Along with this, I continue to take honors or AP language art classes which also encourages becoming thinkers who look beyond the surface, as well as encouraging opinions, and teaches us how to express these ideas. As for the extracurricular activities, I have joined many clubs that also encourage me to become a better leader. I have been a member of Ceramics Club since my freshman year and am now the president of this club. When I started, I began working to include Ceramics Club in the Homecoming Parade and Rally. We made Homecoming medals/ornaments and sold them at the event. …show more content…
Another club I am a member of is Key Club. I joined this club because it is a club dedicated to community service and I wanted to know what more I could do. In my junior year I became co-captain of Key Club’s Relay for Life team and am continuing as a co-captain this year. I’ve been working with the other captain to plan fundraisers and our events. As of right now, I am planning an event on my own to involve the middle schoolers in Relay for Life. Lastly, I am a member of National Honors Society. This club is also dedicated to community service but also encourages education and leadership. Through all of these clubs and the classes I have taken, I have become more outgoing, confident, and have become more of a
During my high school career, I have participated in a large majority of the clubs available to me, and held officer positions in most of them as well. In both the National Honor Society and Medical Connections Clubs I am a member of two and four years respectively, and was elected treasurer of both for the 2017-2018 school year. National Honor Society has also given me many community service opportunities, including helping with the Night to Shine organization and a volunteering at a local nursing home.
Outside of my studies, I’m a member of 3 clubs: HOSA, Key Club, and National Honor Society. I am vice president of HOSA, serving as such for my second year, making this year my third year as an officer. I’m also a member of the Rome High School band for my 7th year in band. I was selected as a section leader for the mellophones this year.
Being active in clubs while at DCHS has made me more confident in myself while in school and out of school. This is partially due to me taking leadership positions in Debate, GSA, Scholar’s Bowl, and National Honors Society, and being Co-Vice President of the Senior Class. I am learning more about myself while helping others discover who they are themselves. And while there are times I am shaky when it comes to being an effective leader, I know this will only help me to grow and improve myself in the
The sun had just set on a chilly November evening in Mountain House, the sky was transitioning to dark black, as we Interactors set out into the neighborhood to collect donations for our first Thanksgiving Food Drive. Within 90 minutes we had collected nearly 200 pounds of nonperishable food, achieving a remarkable feat. It was then donated to Second Harvest Food Bank, a local charity in Modesto, CA. From there, the donations were distributed to families in need, helping them complete their Thanksgiving dinners.
When I first decided to make the journey across the United States to Mount Wachusett Community College, it meant a different life. At the time, I had no idea what MWCC would mean to me and the journey it would take me on.
Since I was young I was constantly reminded of the old saying “be a leader, not a follower” and after years of not understanding the meaning I can now say I have gained the true understanding of this famous saying. Leadership is an important quality everyone must have to acquire the full meaning of life. I have a desire to spread positivity, confidence, and much more to others around me because being a leader is not about telling people what to do or how to do it, it is about encouraging people to be the best they can be in every domain possible. I am involved in a variety of extracurricular activities throughout my community and school such as, soccer, hockey, basketball, softball, and any other type of sport that comes up in our community and I truly feel this activities are the reason I am who I am today.

Friends, are not ones who will be with you forever, no one will. This is something I have learned after my freshman year of high school. Early spring of 2015, I went to Rancho San Joaquin middle school. This is where I have met my best friend during 8th grade, which I once believe she will be my best friend forever. The day when we met is my first day in Rancho, we have the same 6th period english class. Right before the bell ringed, someone walked to me and hit on my shoulder. She is a very bright girl, with long hairs that goes to her waist, not long after this day, we become best friends. I used to be very quiet, through her I have met many of other friends, I once thought we are going to be best friends for the whole 4 year of high school
On 02/06/2018 at approximately 1916 pm Hrs. I Officer Mather the on call officer for the week was notified by the alarm service of a possible Criminal Mischief that occurred at Santa Rita Elementary. Reported by the head custodian of Santa Rita Elementary Oscar Reyes DOB: 06-30-1957. Upon arriving at Santa Rita I met with Oscar who led me to the back of the school on the east side and showed me double door that south of the school with the bottom window cracked.
When at Park Hill Elementary School I was placed in a kindergarten class with Mrs. Maes. When I first entered the class, the environment was warm and inviting. All the students were interested in what the teacher was saying. After the teacher was done taking, she introduced me to the class and mentioned to the children to be on their best behavior and show their school ROAR. ROAR is a set of school wide rules that all the students follow. Throughout the day most of the students followed these rules, but some students did act out. The teacher proceeded to deal with each situation according to the student. It seemed like the teacher had specific rules to her class in addition to the school wide rules. In the class there was a student teacher,
My high school involvement has been as broad and developed as i could make it thus far. Throughout my time at Putnam City North I have played football, basketball, golf, tennis, ran cross country, and am a member of the swim team. I served as class president sophomore year, and am now an executive board member of our S.U.N. (Students United (at) North) council which is a much larger, school-wide student council that caters to the entire school’s events rather than just the events of my class. I also am a junior representative officer for National Honor Society, a member of the Spanish Club, and was Putnam City North’s recipient and representative for the Hugh O’Brian award. My S.U.N. council and National Honor Society council are currently
In the 8th grade there were two teacher that gave me a good experience at Stanford Middle School. This time it wasn’t math it was english. My teacher name was Mrs.Rooney. She made up slangs and songs. I remembered one time we even acted out one of shakespeare's plays. It helped me understand it better than just reading it. We had debates about topics so we could understand it better. We read a book and we answer questions on it every few chapters. It actually made me read the book when I didn’t want to. She made me want to do a lot of things I never thought of doing. Another teacher was Mr. Faulkner he taught science. Even though the class was not easy he prepared us for high school. We did research papers. When we presented power points we
I have chosen to participate in National Honor Society and Key Club because they are both service clubs that allow me to contribute and give back to my community. In both clubs, much of what we do is volunteering and assisting around the community. I chose to participate in Student Government because of the many opportunities I would have to demonstrate leadership and be involved in my local community. Another leadership activity that I participated in was LINK, a service club dedicated to welcoming and guiding incoming Freshman to high school. I joined this club because this was a unique experience to practice leading groups, talking to large groups, and the club seemed fun and interesting. I also enjoy dancing and playing tennis, which lead me to join the tennis team and the dance company at Smoky Hill High School. As a member of dance company, I had the opportunity to choreograph a dance, audition dancers, and teach my choreography for a dance showcase. I joined this activity because of my passion for dance and the opportunity to teach my choreography to other dancers. I chose to join the tennis team because it was a fun way for me to be active and make new friends. Next Generation Voices is a culture club that expresses Asian cultures through dance. Every year, we prepare a presentation
As a young boy, I have always been one to pull things apart. Sometimes with force, other times with finesse. I was never concerned with what it was or what it did, but how it did it was the fascinating part. sometimes, I would pull apart an old cell phone and, to my dismay, see a bunch of electronics. I would pull apart a toaster and see the heating coils, the button, and the little latch that kept the assembly together. As I got older, I found out the wonderful thing called math. I could pull apart functions and equations without my parents being upset about a broken toy or appliance. Where (mostly) everyone was in pain to be on a site called IXL, I loved it. I would solve problems by pulling apart the problem and putting it back together with the answer. I would not even look at without even looking at IXL’s solutions I would complete a week's worth of work in three to four days.
This week at internship, my supervisor and I took some of the 8th grade students on a field trip at Bishop Loughlin High School. My job was to visit each of the 8th grade classrooms and distribute permission slip only to students that were interested in Bishop Loughlin. Originally, there were about 10 students that were really interested in the high school. However, once the student were informed that information given about the high school was a field trip on Friday, more students decided to attend the trip. After collecting 30 permission slips, I had to review the students that was attending the trip with the middle school AP. During the school tour at Bishop Loughlin, the students and the teachers were separated while they explored the school.
