Trailblazer Collegiate Academy Scholarship

My scholarship can be seen through my grades at Wahconah. My grade point average has not dropped below a ninety-six in my freshman nor my sophomore year. I plan to keep this up heading into my junior year. With having these grades, I know that in the winter of my sophomore year, I was eleventh in my class. I know this because I had to send my transcript to a private school who was interested in me for lacrosse, and gained very much interest seeing my grades. I have kept my grades up while also maintaining a job at Kelly’s Package Store and playing lacrosse all year round. Therefore, my I excel academically at Wahconah and plan to do no different in the future.

I believe that I am a worthy candidate for this scholarship due to my recognition of the financial impact of college. Growing up in a single parent home has been a financially and emotionally difficult feat for my mother and myself. When I was seven years old, my father passed away from a blood clot. During his life, he served in Vietnam, where he was granted a Purple Heart after shattering his kneecap on a landmine. He was on disability, and my mother was employed as a rehabilitation nurse, the only source of income in our family. After his death, my mother and I both began to go to therapy for our grief over losing my father. Focusing on my mental health helped me accept the meaning of death, and struck my motivation to honor my father and ensure that he would be proud of me. When I grew up, we always relied on getting clothes from thrift stores to save money and cutting any unnecessary expenditures. My mother always worked to have enough money for food and comfort. I received monetary Survivor Benefits after his death until my high school graduation this past May. As mentioned before, my mother has Multiple Sclerosis, which is an unfortunately expensive illness. Shortly after her diagnosis, the rehabilitation unit of her work closed and she was left on unemployment right before my sophomore year of high school. I was not old enough to drive or work, so finances were incredibly strict. On my 16th birthday, I attended an orientation to work as a lifeguard at our local YMCA. The next day, I also got my license to eliminate transportation issues. My employment alleviated financial and emotional stress on my mother, as I was able to contribute to the bills and my personal expenses. Throughout my life, my mother has also been very dependent on alcohol to relieve stress. There were numerous times where I

I have worked very hard throughout my high school year to earn your consideration for your generous scholarship. First of all, I have maintained a high level of academic achievements. My freshman year I started with a cumulative gpa of 3.571 and I have been able to improve my gpa even further to a 3.8 average. My academics in school have been a priority for me especially during my senior year. I feel I have a great opportunity to attain a 4.0 gpa. I was always the girl in class who paid attention and did all the work. In addition to that, I turned in my work on time in the best quality. I have endured many difficult obstacles and found my weaknesses that I needed to improve on such as balancing my time and activities. I have exerted all my efforts and time to enhance these skills. I am ambitious and constantly set goals for myself to reach. I am committed and passionate to ameliorate my weaknesses. My parents have always pushed me forward into getting a better education that they didn’t have. My family isn’t wealthy, but we are rich with love and support. My mom has always encouraged me to seize every opportunity given. I have been tirelessly endeavoring to take those chances and use it to my advantage.

I have dedicated the past four years of my life to laying the foundation for college and earning acceptance into a university that has an outstanding engineering program. To me, college is not just the next step in my academic career, but it is the stepping stone into a career and a successful future full of problem solving, learning, and collaboration.

Winning this scholarship, would indeed be a jumpstart in the financial aid department. In my family, we have little luxuries, but it is just enough to live life in laughter and to appreciate the good moments we have together. Finding happiness in hard times is a quality I always want to have. To be honest, my ultimate goal is to inspire as many people as I can. A way I will fulfill my goal is by becoming a teacher. To express how opportunities are limitless and should be taken. In the like manner, how my experience in high school has been. For example, I took the chance of raising a goat for the district livestock show and the experience was worthwhile as I learned entrepreneurship, health treatments and companionship.
