School Persuasive Speech

Thank you for your dedication to providing an excellent education system for all students in District 203. Your hard work has made the district have very high rankings and be one of the best districts in the state. As a student at Naperville Central High School, I understand that all school days are important and that they all count towards our grades. In spite of that, many Muslim students have no choice but to miss school due to an Islamic holiday called Eid. Therefore, there should be a day off on the only religious holiday that is celebrated by Muslims.

High school is a place normally portrayed in movies as either a hard, or easy place to survive. I went to high school in a small school outside of Salina Kansas, it was a fairly easy school but there were some tricks to getting by in high school.

Walking into the stadium the screaming is like a train trudging through. Straight ahead i can see through the people at the 8 mats surrounded by the hard, green seats Each mat is a different color from schools all around Minnesota. There are 3 sections of seating the main floor and then two smaller cushioned sections above. As I look to the left there is a mom screaming jumping up and down in tears because her unranked son just beat the 6th ranked guy. I can also point out the father of the young man that lost that match, his face is blank he can't believe what has just happened. On the mat straight ahead there are two of the best wrestlers in the state going head to head for a spot in the finals. One of them had his head wrapped in what used

Thank you so much! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this . The fall meetings probably will not help for this cycle because the deadline for the nomination is July 2.

It’s difficult to imagine what your first time doing something will be like. You’ll hear many different stories about it and it’s still difficult to know what to expect. High school is one of the biggest concerns for teens now days. The night before, the anxiety of the next day may keep you awake for hours. Since you worry about it so much, you may not get the necessary sleep for the oncoming school day. I went to bed at 10:30 p.m. that night and couldn’t fall asleep until approximately 12:00 a.m. It was nerve-wracking to think that I may not fall asleep and would then be expected to wake up at 5:40 a.m. Although, when you think about it, high school follows the same concept as middle school. The only notable difference is the number of students

As you approach your first year of high school, you think nothing is going to change. After all, you are staying in your same school, with the same people, and you already own this place. You are probably about fifty percent right about that. Yes, you are staying in the same school, but the halls will become more crowded and your schedule more hectic. Yes, you’ll see the same people you did last year, but maybe just during lunch since as you walk into your first period you will notice that you don't recognize any of the faces there. And no, you do not own this place, but don't let that stop you from keeping your head up and making the best of it. Welcome to high school, The Heartbreak Games. PS: you're Ruth.

I am writing in hopes that i might persuade you to look more in depth about the importance of Automotive technology. The importance of The Automotive Academy is a very big deal because in this united states especially that the trade of mechanics is still increasing. The amount of people that are unemployed in the united states are outrageous.

My fellow Huaorani we are facing a mass extinction. If we don’t act soon the tradition we have set up will disappear completely. The oil companies are trying to take over the ground beneath us because there is oil. They will stop at nothing to continue to make a profit and will show no mercy to us doing so. They look at us as if we are not even human, they show no respect for our traditions or our way of life.

Have you ever wondered who has taught you the most in your life? Possibly you have someone you’re related to, or a good friend, or just someone you look up to that has taught you some important rules of life? Everyone has ups and downs in their life and needs someone to boost them back up. As teenagers go through high school they begin to really find out who they are. What comes to mind when you think of your high school career? Do you remember your class schedule and everything your teachers taught you, or do you remember the amounts of stress put on you having to get all your assignments done on time and the battles of rumors that high school teenagers deal with? You probably learned more from all of that stress put on you to get your work

High school is a vulnerable time for anybody. We all have been there. It is when people are changing and different friend groups are formed, and you might be a part of a group if you are lucky. However, if you are not so lucky and left out of the in-crowd then your picture might as well not even show up in the yearbook. For me, I have felt invisible in high school on multiple occasions. The first time is when I did not start on the football team. My coach overlooked all my hard work and effort that I had put in just to play even a mere minute at the varsity game on Friday nights. The next occurrence is when I had a crush on this cheerleader for months. I tried everything to get her attention but she always seemed to ignore me for an older and better looking senior. Feeling like you are not good enough and being overlooked is the worst way to live. It hurts more than physical pain. There is no hope besides graduating and moving on to a different stage in your life where you can at least attempt to be finally seen and recognized. I believe the character in the song “Invisible” by Robert Medici is a depressed high schooler that represents most the insecurities that the young high school population has.

As many of you the people reading this know what horrendous event occurred at Rockville high school. For those of you that don't know what occured, a 14 year old girl was sexual violated during school by an 18 and 17 year old males. This girl thought she could be safe and secure inside school walls which all students should. But now this so called safe haven that has been portrayed has now been breached. Many schools are now changing policies including the school i attend about going to the bathroom. Now there is a hall pass and sign out sheet required for every class for a student to use the bathroom. But not only are the schools worried. Parents are worried for their children's safety due to recent events.

They pass you in the hallway like a cold wind you feel the presence but you don’t see a face to the body. A body in the shadows unwilling to be recognized. Any slight acknowledgement of existence is unimaginable to the shadow. This shadow is not the darkness in a white wall this shadow is a person with warmth to a hand and a beating heart like any other. The only difference is that this young soul has never been in a world so massive with all different types of people with different styles and personalities. A new universe was opened.

*C. Motivation*: What if the person waiting on the list needing an organ transplant was someone you loved? Imagine if you had a brother or sister who had unexpectedly died and you were able to meet the person who received their heart, for example. Think of the satisfaction and possible comfort knowing that your brother or sister provided life for somebody else.

For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the

I see more than a hundred-people staring up at me. I am standing on the enormous wooden stage behind my podium looking right back. I am looking at the audience, the judges, my teammates, my ten pages of notes on my podium, and I am looking at my opponent whom I was about to debate. I was standing up without any fear, but with determination and courage ready to eloquently express my side of the debate and present my points to everyone as insightfully as I could, and I did! A few years ago, this would never have been the case. Back then, I would have written my argument with very little detail, spoken with no conviction, and would have been shaking uncontrollably with nervousness, but not anymore. Joining debate team in high school significantly improved my communication skills by infusing passion, detail, and preparation into my writing and speaking.
