I deserve this scholarship because I’m a strong female role model, dedicated to God, school, family and friends, along with my work. I intern at the Sigourney Elementary School where I work with different grades. I feel privileged to work with the younger kids who look up to me as a role model. My relationship with God is very strong, and I try to share that with those around me. I’m hardworking during school and work. I do my best to keep up with my grades, and always stay on top of my homework. I take my schoolwork very seriously, and want to get in as much learning as I can. At one point I was taking nine classes compared to the normal seven period day. I work two jobs now, and can always be counted on to cover hours for those who are sick or can’t come in. I’m active in different organizations in school and am a team player. I’ve shown leadership skills through my years as a Girl Scout since Kindergarten, along with helping inspire the younger girls. These are just a few of the reasons I believe I would be a worthy candidate for the PEO scholarship.
In the next five years I have many plans for my future, but my main goal is to make sure I remain happy. My plans for the future all lead back to my main goal to stay happy. I plan to

My plan is to get a job in Human Resources because I can work virtually anywhere. Choosing a career that is found all over the place will allow me to be able to be more specific about where I want to settle down. I look forward to a career that has a great benefits, working environment, and people. I want to be a part of a good community and be involved in my community as well. Going back to school to get my masters degree in Business will also be another big part of my ten-year plan. After I have finished my schooling, found a steady job, traveled and had diverse experiences, and found a place I want to settle down; I then want to start thinking about having a
I would be honored to receive this scholarship because I am hardworking, dedicated, and try always to be a good role model for others. I am involved in many different things in the school and in the community - from clubs to sports teams to Student Council, where I have always try to do the best I can do. I have maintained good grades and been on honour roll, even while struggling with sickness throughout the year. I would feel honored to receive this scholarship because it would help me to continue on to a successful future. Thank you for your time and consideration in reviewing my
I believe that I should be awarded this scholarship because of my effort in my past twelve years. There have been many times where I wanted to give up on school, but my motivation arose from my parents and their struggle to keep my sister and me in school. Being from Guatemala, their goal was for me to get my education, and if I didn’t try I would be letting the opportunities slip through my hands. Throughout my four years of high school I’ve had sleepless nights, about 100 cups of coffee, endless alarm clocks, and stressful test days to get myself where I am now. I am twelve out of the one thousand and ninety-nine seniors; my GPA is a four point five. In the end it was all my effort. Without me pushing myself, I wouldn’t have been here awaiting
I believe I should be awarded this scholarship because it takes a lot of courage to apply for these scholarships. It’s hard knowing that there are millions of other kids that could be applying for this scholarship as well and it’s tough trying to prove why I should be awarded. I think it’s difficult for anyone to write why they should be awarded this scholarship because we all are applying for the same reasons.The insane cost of college is what we’re trying to work to lower this is due to people paying for it themselves, parents paying for it, and just trying to limit the amount of loans you’ll have to pay back after. I know by saying this is bit risky but, I would like to be awarded this scholarship to help my parents with paying for college.
Waking up on a daily basis and making real of what i have to face is my motivation. Living with a family who neglected me and not getting help when I needed it the most are some reasons that have never stopped me achieving my goals in life. My father would punish my siblings and me by making us go days without eating. There were times were I was too weak to even go to school. On the other hand, extracurricular activities have always been a part of what made me feel like I had a family. Being part of a team means that people are there to support and encourage, even if a person has history with another. I believe I deserve this scholarship because I wake up everyday facing good or bad, negative or positive in the world. I am a high achieving
My first career goal is to become a Human Resource Generalist or Assistant. I honestly feel that I could learn a lot more in that role personally, and professionally, and I believe that being in that position will help me to gain more confidence in my skills in the business world as well.
I believe that I am a good candidate for the Amy L. McKee-Everett Memorial Scholarship due to my caring and loving nature. An excellent example would be the time I gave back to Flat Rock River YMCA Camp this year, during New Years Eve. I volunteered as a counselor to a group of amazing girls. I wanted to volunteer my time, seeing that Flat Rock had done so much for me, in my seven years as a camper. It was time to give back. The 53 hours of time I spent helping out with all the girls, was immensely rewarding. I wouldn't trade my experiences I have had with Flat Rock River YMCA Camp for the world. This experience made me a better person, and will carry over into my undergraduate years of college. I am going into my freshman year bearing skills
Even after entering high school, the importance of keeping my grades up never occurred to me as it became a value to me. Along with keeping excellent grades, I was also involved in several school activities. Throughout my high school years, I presented extravagant academics, leadership, and community work. I was involved in National Honor Society, class council, student council, and blue crew all four years, which is a fan club that attends sports events to support our school’s teams. I also was a varsity cheerleader throughout my high school career. With being inducted to National Honor Society, I completed community service hours. My community service hours consisted of helping out Illini Middle School with their annual D.A.R.E. picnic, working concessions stands for my school’s baseball team, helping sixth graders prepare for their Iditarod, and contributing help at an American Red Cross blood drive. I believe I am worthy of this scholarship because the career path I have chosen takes an appreciable amount of time and money. Overall, I believe I deserve this scholarship because I have the potential to succeed in my career as I would be very appreciative to be awarded the
I am the most qualified to receive this scholarship, because I’ve had to work for the things that I’ve gained. I’ve had to overcome things that others wouldn’t be able to handle. No matter what has tried to hold me back I’ve always put it behind me, and did my job I never let it hold me back. I’ve always had a hard work ethic, and have always kept my grades up to stay in the ten percent of my class. I’m also a leader. At the moment I’m leading a workout movement at my school where more and more people from my school come to the civic center to workout. I know how to lead, and motivate them to work. You have to keep your workers morale up, and make them want to work. You have to encourage them and show them that they can do great things. I’ve
My ultimate career goal is to be a general human resource manager or recruiter for a public school system, University or a Fortune 500 company. These are career fields in which I foresee great potential for growth in the future.
I believe I should receive this scholarship due to my past commitment to the ideals of Rotary and as an investment into my future which will hopefully include becoming a Rotary International Member. Over the years, my family and I have been active in the community and the Rotary Club. As an Interact Officer and RYLA attendee, I feel that I understand and try to actively live by the goals of service above self and high ethical standards for living set by Rotary International. Being an Eagle Scout certainly helps in both of these regards. I have shown in high school that I have a commitment to service, often donating over 75 hours of my time each semester to various organizations that serve our community.
“In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure” (Bill Cosby). Reflecting back on my life I have dealt with numerous downfalls but I always bounce back. I was born in India and moved here when I was six years old. As I grew up in California I was not a bright student at first. I was enrolled in Carmichael Elementary in which I was the only one with Turban on my head, which caused me to get into a lot of fights with other students who were making fun of turban. Not knowing how to speak English at the time affected the way interacted with teachers and students. On the other hand my family always had a tight budget at home. Both of my parents worked at the store we owned which was the only source money. At school kids were always talking about their new shoes and the iPod which his or her parents got them. I didn’t get everything I wanted as a kid but as I got older I understand if did I could be a spoiled brat. When I moved from Carmichael to Sacramento and I was enrolled at Maeola R. Beitzel elementary. Going to this new school I already learned English so I made marvelous friends and was surrounded by positive people. Going from a chaos environment to this harmonious environment in part because I was speaking English, made me have unique personality .I was playing sports and growing as a student. Those years went by in no time. Now I am in high school and my family’s income has been growing. My mom changed her work to now at Jack in
Post-graduation I plan to work in the Human Resources field and become a recruiter at a staffing agency. What is drawing me to this field is not the money but the ability to help those who are in need of finding a job. I really enjoy working with others and improving their live making a positive impact.
I believe I should be awarded one of your scholarships because I believe in taking advantage of every opportunity that the scholarship will bestow upon me. I am a student that believes in working hard, being a positive influence, and giving back to the community. Your organization and I share these core values and I would like to take our vision further by using this scholarship to advance my education as well as an opportunity to improve the lives of those around me. As an immigrant from Nepal, I have had to work hard my whole life just to survive in America. Working multiple jobs while attending school is a tough challenge that I face but I believe that if one works hard their dreams can come true. Many people from my community give up
My Career Plan The future is uncertain for me, but it is important to develop a career plan that will provide financial support and personal fulfillment over the course of my professional life. To make this transition from school to a professional career, I am going to plan a plan that will help me stay focused and motivated in meeting my goals and objectives. In the next paragraphs, I will explain my ten-year plan for my
I believe I deserve this scholarship for numerous reasons. I am a hard working person, who always strives to do my best, and tackles any challenge posed with the ambition. My greatest desire is to become a successful engineer, however the financial burden that college bares is too great an obstacle to conquer on my own. I believe I deserve this scholarship, because investing in mem would be investing in the future.
