Bandura has studied self-efficacy, which is the extent or strength of one’s belief in one’s own ability to complete tasks and reach goals. Self-efficacy can affect all types of behaviors like academics, social and recreational. A child might have the ability to accomplish a task, but if they do not feel like they are capable of doing so, then they may fail or may not attempt the task. For example, in a study difficult math problems were given to children with

accomplished through education. Education is the fundamental key to a child's success. Whether it’s in academics, athletics, or community service, my experiences create

Why would students want to attend a magnet school? The reason may be because magnet schools offer a variety of specialized programs that students can choose from. Programs such as visual and performing arts, mathematics, sciences, and many others are available for students to choose from. Similar to having a major in college, students at magnet schools have their own specialized area that they can take classes in, in addition to basic academic classes. They are encouraged to be creative and to hone their skills in their area of interest.

This outcome can be achieved by providing children with opportunities to experience the familiar world through enquiry,

In today's world violence, chaos, and death has become too common and too redundant. It seems as though every day there is a new story in the newspaper about police brutality , the corruptions of society , and civil wars within developing countries. Despite the fact that we can easily look up information about the daily traditions and values of different cultures around the world we fail to do so. The lack of knowledge about other people and societies ,besides our own, causes a shallow understanding of why people do the things we hear and see in the headlines. This magnet school appeals to me because I believe learning about the world's customs will help me in my future goals to become a journalist.

The Vision/Mission statement of Myers Middle School is directly in line with the vision and mission statements of the Savannah-Chatham County school district.

As educators, we are instructing our students not only in matters of scholarship, but in matters of self. Expression through confidence of autonomy, self-efficacy, and intrinsic motivation are integral to the development of any individual.

XYZ Charter Academy is an elementary school with a total of 450 students and service at risk students on the verge of failure as well as live in low poverty areas. Two- hundred eight five students have been identified as at risk students and 60 of them are in the early childhood program. Those students have been identified as being at least one to two grade levels behind with a reading comprehension level at kindergartern. These students also have high behavior issues and have been suspended several times. According to Cox (2009) students can learn according to their abilities and needs. This form of teaching is also great for the teacher because it gives him/her the time to work individually with students who may be struggling.

In my great middle school, Wildwood Middle School of Waunakee, Wisconsin, our goal is for students to grow into people who will make the world a better place. Sixth, seventh, and eighth graders are taught a wide variety of common core classes and extra exploratories to enrich children and help them grow. We believe in the principal character traits of S.H.A.R.K., which stands for Self-Control, Humility, Acceptance, Responsibility, and Kindness. Wildwood Middle School’s motto is,” Where Everyone Belongs”, as we believe everyone should be treated with kindness and respect. Our school sports team is the Wildwood Sharks and our mascot is Sammy Shark. We believe Wildwood is a great middle school because we provide a safe and fun learning environment

The committee I have been a part is termed the Staff Advisory committee. The committee has created health initiatives for our Nourish 282 program, and developed after- school activities. The committee meets weekly to discuss student needs, goals, and analyze school policies. The mission of the committee is to create strong parent partnerships. The team has requested parent input. The Staff Advisory committee would find Kathy Silveria’s experiences helpful. Hallowell (2011) suggested the use of a questionnaire to gain knowledge on what would be the best ‘job fit’ for individuals. The feedback form completed with Kathy Silveria proved she has various interests, strengths, and background to assist in the committee’s mission. As Hallowell (2011) stated, “The best job incorporates (1) what a person likes

“The goal of education is not to increase the amount of knowledge but to create the possibilities for a child to invent and discover, to create men who are capable of doing new things,” stated by Jean Piaget. Education serves many purposes; it helps a child open their eyes to the world, it provides curiosity and determination for a young adult, and it can provide middle age adults and elders with a spark of belonging and hope. To be able to achieve these purposes, the process of education must start at a young age. Singing the ABC’s to an infant, reading to a toddler, encouraging writing and math skills are a few steps towards all the possibilities a person could have in life.

Throughout my life, I’ve realized my definition of success has been through achieving my goals to serve others and ultimately never stop learning. My work ethic and character traits have contributed to reaching my goals in high school and will prepare me for the future.
