Why Attend High School

I attend a relatively small, private, Catholic high school in northern New Jersey called Don Bosco Prep. I am involved in a variety of activities including sports, music, and various clubs and organizations. My school encouraged me to grow academically, socially, culturally, and spiritually. Our school motto is “empowering young men for life”.  I feel that my school has given me the tools to be an engaged student. The school promotes a brotherhood which has benefitted me personally. Whether a friendship forged from a study group or one formed with a teammate, each friendship brings different experiences to my life for which I am grateful.

I would like to attend college because I want to be able to demonstrate not only to myself but to my family that we can do what we set ourselves to do. I would to do go far in this life and accomplish my life goals. Without college, I will not be able to do my goals. My goals are to graduate from college, one day own my own land so that I can own my own agricultural business, and have my home there too, and I want to be a high school Spanish teacher as well. Another reason as to why I want to attend college is that I want to be able to show my little sister that anything is possible, we can do whatever we set ourselves to do, as long we do not give up we will be able to accomplish great things in life. My teachers have also been a great influence

It takes lots of hard work, education, and dedication to become a veterinarian. A veterinarian, or vet, is a doctor that treats and diagnoses animals. When your animal is sick, hurt, or you are in need of medical advice you take your pet to the vet. When I graduate high school, I plan on going to school to be a vet.

When I was in middle school, I truly didn’t care for school. I just thought it was a mandatory part of the everyday adolescent child. I came to school each day dreading the fact that I have to sit for hours and listen to lectures that I thought to myself that I don’t need in the future. It was the beginning of the second semester in eighth grade, I was called in by my advisor. She told me that if I don’t improve my grades, I would have to repeat a grade, and I would have to wait two years until I enter high school. This unnerving fact stopped me in my tracks, and I remember the cold feeling that suddenly surged through my body. There was a possibility that I could fail and repeat a grade. And so I thought to myself, is this really how I want to continue my life? Is

do you think it's important to go to college straight out of high school ?

In the following two articles, “7 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Go To College and 4 Things To Do Instead” from the Huffpost Business by Michael Price and “The Rising Cost of Not Going to College” by the Pew Research Center, have varied relations and differences stated within each of them. There are important points to consider about making the choice if college is necessary for one’s future or not. They also talk about what positions people are put in if they choose to have a college experience and education under their belt or not. It’s all about the cost, time, and value that comes with it.

The reason I chose to attend college was ,because I wanted to further my career path. My son is my motivation I do things to set a example for him. I want him to know that his life doesn't stop after one or two diplomas, keep going don't let your peers be your downfall. I choose to attend ECTC ,because this is a college here where I live I didn't want to go off to college due to the fact that I have a son and I've already put school off for a year , because my son was a newborn baby and I felt like he needed me more. I have a great support system now then ever before I have family members that a rather see you doing bad then good. I had to prove those type of people wrong they thought I wouldn't make it with a baby but I did. I've had

I have been born and raised in Ramsey, Minnesota. However, because I attended Anoka high school and Anoka is super close to where I live, many times I will tell people that’s where I live. One of the reasons why I came to the University of Minnesota is because I can go home pretty much whenever I want, it’s only about a half hour drive and I can also catch a ride on the North Star train. I also have always liked being surrounded by people so I wanted to come to a bigger school to get that experience. The U has also been a dream of mine because my parents, more specifically my dad, are big fans of the Gophers. Some of the activities that I was involved in high school were S.T.A.R., Key Club, Rally Crew, National Honors Society, head managing

Many students from Asian countries spent a lot of money to go to school.We think education as a million dollar prize.If I do not go to college,i will get stigmatized from everyone.I want to go to a college because I need degrees to get a good job and increase the quality of my life.I need a money to pay college tuition.

I'm highly aware that most people say that they want to attend college to get out of the struggling life style they were born in, or to be successful because you can't be successful without college or other things along those lines. Don't get me wrong, I believe that college is the exact fix to those situations and rock on for people with that mindset. But....I personally believe that college is not the place you go to fix your problems, I think it's the place that gives you the resources and education to fix your problems, but it doesn't fix your problems for you.

In a few months I will be starting my future before I know it. Once I walk off the stage of high school graduation in june 2018 I am going to study what I have been wanting to do for over 6 years which is to study personal finance at a four year school. What had made me consider this as a career is when I was helping my dad out on a job for his heating and cooling business and we had done a sheriff's house and the officer had given me advice on taking finance in college instead of criminal justice. As I had talked to more cops as time went on more and more had told me that criminal justice is not the best degree to be a cop, more that 80% have said that the police department would rather hire someone with a degree in business or a degree related

If you already know what you want to do why stay in school longer than you have to? My opinion is, if you know what you want to major in, you should only take needed classes. At Patrick County High School you have to have 14 electives before you can graduate. It would be better and easier to take only classes that you need for your career. Also, if only taking classes you needed was in effect, students could focus more career and get more experience.

I have always wanted to graduate high school and attend college. From a young age, I remember thinking about what an honor it would be to attend the same college my mother did. I always worked hard and maintained a high grade point average, hoping to join the ranks of high school seniors who moved into the college world. The suddenly I learned about a program that could help me reach my dreams sooner than planned.

I am attending school because as an immigrant is hard to left our countries and families behind. When I realized that is hard to find a job in the US because the language barrier, the necessity to attend school become crucial to success. That was one of the advices that my relatives told me. My purpose to attend school is to kill my ignorance, move up my family into another educational level, and pass the invisible barriers that elites set to maintain masses apart from success.

After reading more into what my major/career means, I do have a better understanding of what every day on the job would look like. Since I did go to high school, I do know what being a high school teacher entails. I cannot wait to graduate and get my career started. The only thing that makes me worry or have doubts is the fact that a job right after college is not guaranteed. Some people are money motivated and I am not one of those people. I will do whatever it takes to do what I love doing. Expected salary I can expect to earn, meaning I get a teaching job, would be around $55,000. This would definitely be enough to pay off my student loans. The situation where I wouldn’t be able to pay off my student loans, would probably be if I end up
