Academy

The ability to facilitate an engaging discussion with not one but two groups of freshmen at Christian Brothers Academy is something I look forward to every cycle. By discussing some relatively controversial subject topics with these freshmen, I put myself in a role model position, one to influence positive decision making in order for these kids to make their own transition into Academy Men, to really make the most out of their four years at CBA. I have learned a lot about the ten freshmen that

The article “Academies of Art; Past and Present” by Nikolaus (1973) encompasses the history of academies in general. Beginning from the Plato’s time, the term “academy” has changed its connotations. The writing style is eloquent, yet covers the developments on the topic in every era. The writer used the article as a prologue for the reader to understand the term “academy” in order to make sense of the forthcoming chapters of the book. As the term had varied meanings, its reference in each century

not interested in being in a grade level academy setting. We needed the teachers to want to be in the Sophomore Academy; however, we did not get a 100 percent buy in. Most of the teachers wanted to keep our traditional school setting (grades 9-12). The Sophomore Academy would be located in a specific location in our building and our school bell schedule would use a traditional scheduling with a two-day block schedule. Prior to our change to the Academy system, teachers were accustomed to planning

In the process of being rewritten :D Cross Academy was a prestigious boarding school known for its state of the art education system and gothic architecture. Countless arched windows littered around every inch of the building, showering the interior with beams of glimmering light. Yet somehow the structure seemed to retain its somber atmosphere. As if it housed something unknown. Cross Academy was an elite school for the rich and talented, with an extensive campus enveloped in a thick grove of wild

your letter. The Board of Directors of Taylor International Academy (hereinafter the “Academy”) established a reauthorization committee prior to the expiration of our charter agreement with Central Michigan University. Tom West and I served on the committee, and after Tom West’s resignation, Dr. Renita Clark served on the committee with me. On or about October 28, 2014, Barbara Zeile of Central Michigan University sent the Academy a letter indicating that “Academy’s academic performance over

challenges Indiana Academy will undeniably present to me, I will increase and build upon the skills I already possess. I welcome the prospect that I will be challenged, even if the task does seem daunting. The level of difficulty I face in my school now does not push me to study, as I am already successful and therefore do not see the need to study habitually. However, I have found useful studying strategies and note taking formats that I will implement at the Indiana Academy. By setting myself a

Waldron Mercy Academy. Waldron is a private, Catholic school that educates children through preschool to eighth grade. Sister Mary Patricia Waldron, the foundress of the school, found herself in Philadelphia in 1861 in order to give aid to those who are poor and uneducated (something that is now exemplified in Waldron’s mission statement). Soon after her arrival, she developed the school; which, at first, was just opened as an all male-school; appropriately called Waldron Academy for Boys. In September

Life at the Academy especially the first year is tough. There are days the midshipmen will love it and other days when they hate it. Eventually I understand that the loves out weigh the hates, however, in the beginning, during plebe year, it may feel overwhelming to many of them. As a lot of Naval Academy graduates say about the Naval Academy, “It’s a good place to be from, but not a good place to be.” Concerning that, there were some regulations that I only discovered with further observation.

ct to gain from the Air Force Academy experience and how will it help you in your Air Force career? (250 to 300 words, 3000 characters max) My initial interest in the Air Force Academy was sparked when I accompanied my parents to a Military Child Education Coalition conference in the summer of 2004. My father and I, not involved in the conference, decided to spend the week exploring the Colorado Springs area, and after touring for several days, decided to go to what my father called "Zoomie U".
