South Carolina Reflection

I will compare and contrast three colonies, Virginia, South Carolina, and Massachusetts, to demonstrate that the motivations of the colonists determined their success.

In 1629 King Charles decided to make England a colony. In 1729 north and South Carolina a colony. The colony's were taken over by the King and started to be a colony. The first settlement was Charles Town’s. England was one of the colonies.

As I stated before that I want to be accepted to this High School because the quality of learning is really high. As I was checking the school’s courses it seems that it is pretty academic, and the standards are set high for both the students and the teachers. I am one of those students who wants

George the Second, by the grace of God, of Great Britain, King, Defender of the Faith, I write to thee from the heart of South Carolina, Charleston to impart my knowledge of the region. My travels have been long and arduous. I arrived by way of a freight ship bearing finished goods for the colony on the twenty-eighth day of March, in the twenty-third year of thy reign. All that province, territory, or tract of ground, called South Carolina, lying and being within our dominions of America is well.

Growing up in the Chicago area was a great experience for me, I was always a good kid but I had always struggled in school. The reason that I had a hard time in school was that I had A.D.D which was the cause of my distraction. Entering Pritzker College Prep was a different experience for me because I was overwhelmed, the reason as to why I felt overwhelmed was because of the amount of homework we got. I ended up spending nights where I would do my homework and wouldn’t get a sufficient amount of sleep and would also cause me to fall asleep in class. My grades started to drop which caused me to stop caring in school, so I also decided to just stop doing my homework and it caused a decrease in my grades.

Even after making the transition to Deer River High School in sixth grade, I continued to glide through school. My pattern of being underchallenged continued until I discovered College in the Schools classes this past fall. Finally, I was challenged (perhaps at times even more so than I imagined,) and I’ve grown exponentially in the past academic year. However, I feel as if that exponential growth is reaching its capacity in this specific environment. Becoming a part of the College of St. Scholastica’s academic environment would allow me to begin a new pattern of exponential growth both as a student and as a person.

There were many differences between the Northern and Southern part of Carolina. The Northern part had completely different geographic features then the southern part of Carolina. For instance the Northern part grew Tobacco, which was a cash crop for them, because the land and climate were just right for growing tobacco. In the southern part of the colony they grow rice, which they used as a staple crop which is a crop that many people can use to support themselves on they grew it. Rice also known as Carolina gold became a prosperous crop because of the African slaves. They knew how to flood fields to grow it and how to plant it. Also Northern part of Carolina was mainly made up of Virginian settlers. The settlers

Each colony was settled for different reasons such as religious freedom, riches or glory. Massachutes and South Carolina were both settled for very different reasons as well. Though they were very different there was also some similarities.

Summit Charter Collegiate Academy is a dependent charter school under the Burton School District, and as you can tell by the name, it is a college prep school. SCCA is a middle school and high school campus serving students from 6-12th grade. It is also an International Baccalaureate world school, which is a school that has a philosophy of having a committed, challenging, and international education for students. The Burton School District and the administration of SCCA expect the high schoolers to always gain prosperity and only focus on their grades and college. It doesn’t sound bad at all to know that they expect great things from their students, but it has gotten to the point where they are expecting too much. High school is supposed to be the best four years in someones life, so how on Earth can a student from SCCA have any fun and make any

South Carolinas' successful economy during early South Carolina didn't just fall from the sky. It required a lot of time and hard work. The Native Americans, European Settlers, along with enslaved and free African Americans were all a very significant part of the developing economy for early South Carolina.

Over the last three decades several United States auto jobs have migrated to the South. Some of the things that have attracted these auto giants to these Southern States is the cost of living and operating advantages which far surpass those of their Northern counterparts, which also attract more white-collar workers. The Volvo plant is no different, their goal for building in South Carolina is an attempt to re-focus it US market share, which had long diminished. Although having these auto giants, such as Volvo come in to these small rural towns to encourage growth and development, what effect does it really have in the community?

. As of 2011, South Carolina has 13,120.5 acres of forestland. This is nearly 67% of the state’s total land area. Out of all of the forestland in South Carolina, 88% is privately owned. 63% of the privately owned forestland is family-owned. The average family-owned forestland is 80 acres, and around 56% of private forest owners live on their land. 12% of South Carolina’s forestland is publicly owned, or owned and managed by forest industries. These forest industries own nearly 137,400 acres. This number is down 93% from where it was in 2001, and it is continuing to decline.

Are you tired of living in a place where no one appreciates you? If you are one of those people who struggle everyday to make a living, South Carolina is the way to go. We accept people from all religions and backgrounds. Take a minute and Imagine living in a fancy house with lots of money to spare. The slaves in South Carolina are very loyal and will do the laborious work for you. John( a farmer) said “me and my family were living in poverty, but after coming to South Carolina we were given a second chance. People who cannot see the beauty of these lands must be blind”.

This past week I visited the town of Calhoun, Georgia. While there, I talked to a few of the locals about some of the new government orders. As you most likely know, the 15th amendment giving African Americans the right to vote has just been passed and is now official. Also, just a few years ago, the 13th amendment made all slaves free, and the 14th amendment made African Americans full citizens of the US. Up here, in New York, the streets have been filled with the joyous songs of the black and white people celebrating the great news. But there is a whole other story to be told about what is going on down South.

Sitting in on a trial, truly opened my eyes to the reality of the world we live in. In other words, crime happens everyday, all around us. Truthfully, I felt bad for the defendant, for he was not expecting 35 college students to sit on his trial, though it is open to the public. After reading Crook County, I found multiple similarities and differences between the book and the trial I went to. For example, Crook County, states the division between the minority and white individuals. There is glass dividing them, which creates the race division. However, in Williamsport, there is no distinct division of race, for the trial was open to the public and there is no assigned seating.
