I envision IntelliSchool as a place of high school students who have enrolled to finish their high school education that might have been hindered by someone or something. I personally admire these people, who regardless of the struggles they have faced, they still have the audacity to keep growing as a human being. As a public charter school, IntelliSchool is a diverse environment that includes all kinds of socioeconomic groups and ethnicities. Some of my biggest fears are not being able to adapt quickly to their form of learning. Since it is a self-paced education, each student learns different material every day, and are usually afraid to ask questions. As the days progress I am sure that I will gain their trust and ask for help more openly. My biggest concern is not being familiar with the material being learned by the students and still having to explain it to them. As an ASU intern, I know they see me as a "know-it-all" but the truth is, I am only two years ahead of them so there is not much educational difference. By working with young adults, I am positive that I am going to learn as much from them as they are going to learn from me. Some of my expectations are to grasp a general idea of the way each student learns and then develop ways in which I can incorporate these concepts into my classes. Although I do not perceive behavior as a major challenge, I do expect some disrespect or frustration towards me from being unable to help them correctly.

A high school diploma is extremely important to my future for several reasons. I intend to go to college, and virtually all post-secondary institutions, colleges and universities require a high school diploma or GED to attend. I want to earn more income, and the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that a person with a high school diploma will earn almost $10,000 more per year. I want to have a challenging job, and a diploma will offer me more career opportunities as a degree shows employers a higher level of deductive reasoning and problem-solving skills. I hope to remain employed throughout my lifetime, and studies have shown that many employers will not even consider a candidate that does not possess a high school diploma. Increasing my education
The reason why I think it’s important to have a high school diploma in your future is because certain jobs that make the big money it’s a requirement for you to have a high school diploma. In this generation it all comes down to money, how much you making, how much you spend and if you don’t have a really good job because you didn’t get your high school diploma then you have to watch what you spend your money on. It is some jobs that you don’t need a high school diploma too work at like for example McDonalds but It a likely chance you’re going to be working there forever making a lot money. It’s also important to have it in the future because of your children why I say that because every parent wants to make their children life better than
What would school be like without any fun or competition? Even though school is meant for learning, students still deserve to participate in something fun that is also beneficial to them. That is why competitive sports deserve to be kept in high school. Without them, students wouldn’t learn important life lessons and how to work as a team, some may not even have the opportunity to progress in school and go to college, also it is healthy and helps establish a sense of community.
Everyone knows that in different places there are different learning habits. Not everyone learn at the same paste or the same subjects. In different states and countries students are to learn different subjects to graduate to get there high school diploma. Though my of years of high school I was done with just about all my basic classes that I need to graduate at the end of my junior year and only had like one or two classes to take on my senior year.. I don't find it a problem if the student should be eligible to graduate early, if that student have done everything they had to do to get their diploma I believe it is a good idea that they senior year should be the year to get ready for college and start there career or go to college. it will
I have worked with teenagers the entire time that I’ve worked for the district and being close to their age group has helped me make a better connection with them. Several students have told me, “ You understand where I'm coming from because not to long ago you were where I was”. Many of the students that I have helped me see me not just as a Para, but as a Mentor. I have a hand full of students who are the first to graduate and attend High School in their families and throughout the course of their High School career I have been there telling them what I have done and what areas they should improve upon so that they can be better off in this big world, which to them is frightening (paying bills and taxes).
Many students worry about how their middle school years will go. Middle school is a very important part of a student’s education. Middle school is their initiation into high school and could really impact their future. Many elementary school students think that they are prepared and can do well in middle school, but many are not ready. Also, students who do not do well in middle school tend to not do well in high school. One lesson I would like to teach elementary school students is how to survive middle school, which is important because it will lead them to a better future by being prepared, managing time, and knowing how to problem solve.
In Ingram tom moore high school we have a rule for going to the restroom where for the first 20 and last 20 minutes we can not leave the classroom for the restroom or any reason. A lot of school have problems like this where students have the basic right of going to the restroom restricted or taken away. Most researchers of this kind of topic have said that this is a bad idea because kids get off task and can't concentrate on what is at hand because they really have to go. The schools that have decided that students “safety is more important” need to consider that telling a student to wait can and is, in itself be dangerous because of risk of infection build up in the bladder from urine that is just sitting there.
Students need to attend school regularly. They can learn new skills that can be applied in the future. Schools are effective as they teach students how to socialise and become great leaders. However, schools cannot be effective unless students are focussed during lessons and are in good health. In my opinion, there are issues that I feel secondary schools can address to ensure the health, well-being and safety of their students.
A high school diploma is important to my future. With it, I can lead a very successful life if I continue to work hard and strive for my goal. By graduating high school, I will have a better outlook on life and have a sense of pride knowing I can do anything I set my mind to. Having a diploma would also give me a peace of mind and hopefully motivate my friends and family to stay persistent in their studies and to never give up in school. A diploma would greatly increase my chances of finding a job and furthering my education by increasing my chances of being accepted into college. Down the road, I can major in a subject in college that I might have discovered in high school through my electives that will allow me to get a college degree and
Many teachers and professors get asked daily questions about the importance of school by their students. Students often think the importance of school is to help you prepare for a job. From experience, many people disagree with this. Not only does school help you prepare for a job, it helps students learn basic life skills and what’s going on in the world. School is important for getting a good job, succeeding in life, and learning a vocation.
In Japan, where I’m from, education is mandatory, and children need to go to elementary school and junior high school until 15 years old. Homeschooling is excluded from mandatory education in Japan. I was schooled in public elementary school and public junior high school. Education in high school is not mandatory in Japan, but I took and passed entrance exam of a prestigious and public high school held by the prefecture I lived in. After finishing education of high school, I passed the entrance exam of private university of foreign studies. Then, I have been participating in the one-year exchange program of studying in the United States. I was schooled by having been studying for more than 15 years.
I have always been a hardworking student, but throughout my high school years I have experienced what I later found to be extremely common: immense stress, health problems, and depression. As an Early College High School (ECHS) student, the expectations bestowed onto a regular high school student have more than doubled, leaving the unprepared and carefree eighth grade students spinning the second they step into an ECHS class.
There are many opportunities through one’s life where it is possible to gain education. Some may find these opportunities through books, movies, friends, or even just from daily activity. Although I have learned a great deal of information from these themes, I have noticed that I have surprisingly gained a lot of education from my band class provided at my high school. Not only have I learned the importance of music, but I have gained many educational values. Throughout my life, one place I have surprisingly gained education from, including time management, knowledge expansion, and hard work ethic, is my band class.
In high school I was a very work-oriented person, I didn’t care as much about partying and more about my school work. I was the girl that was the teacher’s pet and I would go home every night and worry about school. I loved school because I believe that we should all better ourselves through our education and I think that everyone should keep learning and keep evolving. I had a 3.98 GPA and it was something I was really proud of because it took so much of my time to keep my GPA up. I was also on the honor roll all four years of high school, I was in our towns newspaper for all straight A’s for three years, and I was on the principals list for 3 years. Even though I focused a lot on my school work, I really love being with my friends and family. I love trying to help my friends and talk with them if they are having and problems. I made so many great friends in high school and I really miss them all. Outside of class I loved being involved in my school and community. In school groups I joined were National Honor Society and Ruriteen, which I was the treasurer for Ruriteen my senior year. Outside of school I was in my communities Big Brothers Big Sisters program and I had two little sisters. I was also a cheerleader from 2nd grade to my junior year in high school.
