Personal Statement: A Career In High School

DI would say, successfully starting over as a non traditional student is my most meaningful achievement to date. While I've achieved most, if not all, goals that I've set to carry out, Most meaningfully, coming to terms with a juvenile decision and not giving up serves as my most telling accomplishment.

Hi! Im Shelby from MMS.I am super eager to be a freshman at highschool next year but i'm also nervous.With being eager and nervous I am also really adventurous, creative, curious about how things work,and kind. I wouldnt say im the best student because I am still working on managing my time wisely. I can work well under pressure but I don't want to have to in the future.I also have to work on turning things in on time.I have to be a good example because I am the oldest of two half brothers.One goes to Kindergarten academy right now his name is Elijah.And my other half brother goes to West shore academy the private school, his name is Jackson. They are both in kindergarten.

It was May 25, 2018 at 7:47 in a steaming hot gymnasium when the name Anthony Joseph Sansalone was getting called from the loud speaker, the sixth to last person to receive their diploma I begun shaking the hands of all the board members and everything that I had known from the last 13 years at the same school was over and a new chapter of my life was stating to begin. A few seconds after receiving my diploma the Class President guided us to changing of our tassels from right to left then commencement was over and I was walking out with my future roommate at BGSU, Vincent Zhang, we looked at each other knowing that our high school career was descending and our college careers were lifting off together. High school was tuff for me due to the fact that I have know what I wanted to do since I was a freshman, I want to become an animator and work for an Academy Award winning company such as

In a few short months, I will be graduating from high school. With that comes large responsibilities to take care of my own schooling and my own needs. There will be no one there to motivate me to finish my homework or to push me to school everyday. I am in charge of myself now, and it will take some time to get used to. Going to college is a big part of 2018 for me, and I want to start the year strong. Instead of picking a resolution or goal, we picked a word that we wanted to work towards this year. My word is strive. I want to strive to do and be better than I think I can be. To make my resolution easier this year, I picked a word that I can drive towards to get me through any trials.

“Soon shall thy arm, UNCONQUER'D STEAM! Afar; Drag the slow barge, or drive the rapid car;

Since childhood, I have tried my best to find something in which I excelled, a path in life that I could turn into a career choice. However, it had not been as simple as I thought for as I developed, matured and refined my academic skills, my passions changed as I gained a love for the sciences. Initially, I wanted to explore a career in detective work, which I pursued for two years. Then at age fifteen, I had my heart set on pursuing law, primarily because I wanted to help people, especially those who had been faced with injustice. However, as I enrolled and completed more advanced and challenging Science classes, I began to develop a passion for pursuing a career in science and its related field. The constant that remained true, though, is that in every career path I desired, I knew that I wanted to help others.

In high school all freshman 's were taken on a trip upstate to Camp Ramapo, of course everyone was excited to go, little did we know we were all in for a surprise. Upon arrival we all realized that our cellphones had no service we all thought it would be a momentary situation, turns out it was not. We would spend 3 nights and 4 days disconnected from the world, no Facebook, at the time aim, or text messaging. I remember we were all shocked and mad at the thought of not being able to use our phones. The trip started off poorly everyone seemed disinterested in participating in activities, so the camp consolers decided that we would all break off into small groups. It all appeared to be pointless because still no one was willing to participate in the activities, but suddenly we were all asked to share our names and something interesting about ourselves. After we had all shared things changed suddenly, I personally began interacting with people who I had not spoken to at all throughout my first semester which was shocking since I had class with most of them. After the 4 days were over, I came to the realization that those had been the best days of my life. I was able to meet new people even though they weren 't necessary new in my eyes, I participated in activities I had never done before, and most of all I wasn 't so worried about who had and hadn 't texted me, or what the latest news/gossip was. It took this trip for me to realize that I was so disconnected from my

In elementary school, I was a shy girl, but my parents would never believe that statement from any teacher. As a child, I ran around, danced on an imaginary stage, and read vigorously. Nevertheless, the quiet girl in their class perplexed teachers, but one teacher pushed me out of my shell and onto a stage. In that moment, the perception of me being a quiet student disappeared, and the chance to grow as a better person arose.

Glancing back at my high school years I would say it was difficult. I was not the individual I am today, I was indiscreet and dull. I wasn't worried about my principles. The beginning of high school is the most basic year that will set your GPA for what's to come. Raising your GPA won't be a simple thing to do. Concerning me I had begun with a moderate GPA, however, all through the rest of my high school years I needed to work hard to bring it up.

Throughout most of my high school career, I looked down on community colleges and believed that they were only for those who didn’t care about school or who hadn’t managed to get into a 4-year university. I admired those who went to schools like UT, Baylor, or A&M and thought that I would be one of them upon graduating. However, towards the end of my senior year, that all changed. Before continuing my education, I wanted to not only explore other career options, but also prepare myself mentally and academically. As a smaller, less expensive, and closer alternative to 4-year universities, Lone Star College offered the optimal environment.

Going into high school will be very emotional I will be excited, nervous, scared, and sad because I am leaving VPA. I have made many friends like my ranch buddy, and learned many things in my 8 years of being here. This school has taught me many things like leadership, friendship, and good character. Although I have faced many challenges at vpa I have found a way to work through them and learn something along the way.

As one approaches the middle of his high school career, it is good to acknowledge the progress he has made and the goals he should accomplish. Jesuit has established a description containing five points in which a graduate should have improved during his high school career. This description contains great goals to strive for during school and in the future. During my first three years at Jesuit, I have improved in two ways: becoming more open to growth and more committed to doing justice.

Through out my high school career I never took my education seriously. For most of the four years it was a big blur. I’m not quite sure if it was because of me or if I found myself blaming my surroundings or teachers for my lack of focus and strive to learn. A failure can mean different things to everyone else. Maybe there’s just different types or categories of failures. These failures are meant to teach us something, or motivate us to simply not make these mistakes again.

I am very excited for this school year. I will finally be in high school next year! While I am in this school building, I have some goals to keep me motivated in my learning experience. One of my goal is to get straight A's. I have never got A's all school year before and I am really hoping that I can stay focused on my work and make my teachers very happy with my success. Another goal is to befriend everyone in my class. Since there is a difference in kids’ choices of whether or not to do advanced classes, I have students in my classes that I never had. I know almost everyone in 8th grade, but there are some classmates that I don't normally talk to and I would love to get to know them

8:00 am. Get to class, don't make eye contact, sit down quietly, participate only when necessary. These are the actions taken by a freshman straight out of high school, just about two weeks after her graduation, to fit in to a totally new community. Coming from an all girls school in the upper east side, Berkeley College was and, sometimes still is, a culture shock. My high school only had approximately 200 girls overall and I graduated with only a class of 36 girls, even a class size too small for that school, but Berkeley College has however many campuses stocked with people. But high school was high school and this is college. It’s time for me to grow up, mature, and take responsibility for my own establishment in this world, but how?
