Music In Schools What is music? Music is “vocal or instrumental sounds combined in such a way as to produce beauty of form, harmony, and expression of emotion. Music is a way of life, a way to escape from problems in my life, and is a way to express myself. Bringing music into school programs was brilliant, because it helps students, like me, to be more than just a regular student. It expands our ability to do more and be more as a student, at such a young age. I could go on forever about
Do you realize how many high school students receive a certificate of attendance versus a diploma? Whether you believe it or not it happens quit frequently. That is precisely why I chose to become a student of Penn Foster. After taking a few minutes of deep thought, my personal response for acquiring my education at Penn Foster is to receive my diploma, not be the only one in my immediate family who did not receive a diploma, accomplish my goals in life, walk into a great career, and be able to
private school, my best friend went to the public school. When we would get together I would always be jealous of the things she got to do, that I wasn’t able to. Things as simple as not having to wear a uniform, or being able to paint her nails. I always felt that not being able to do those things in school was preventing me from expressing myself. Then came the time to go to highschool. My mother wanted me to attend a private high school, while my dad was more in favor of the public school. It was
are many aspects of high school sports that students and parents don’t spend enough time thinking about (e.g. pros and cons of high school sports.) Being an athlete in high school teaches you many things (e.g. character building, socialization, sportsmanship, live a healthier lifestyle, college preparation, ect.) Along with positive aspects of being a student athlete in high school, there are also negative ones (e.g. injuries, lack of free time, pressure, not focusing on school.) When a student
While in high school for most people, they don’t understand how important certain things may be for their future. Writing is very important for students in high school because it will forever be a part of their everyday life. No matter what career path a person choose, writing will be involved in some sort of way. Writing skills are important for high school students because it prepares them for college, creates professional writing, and helps them be successful after high school. With proper writing
Throughout my life, I’ve experienced many impactful events. However, some of these events have proved to impact not only myself in that moment, but my entire life. In my junior year of high school, I decided to join my high school’s chapter of Business Professionals of America. When I joined, I never realized the impact that joining the Business Professionals of America, or BPA, would have on the rest of my high school career and, possibly, the rest of my life. The BPA sponsor at my school, Mrs. Neidig
Campbell University is simple, after my Military career I remained in Fayetteville, NC. I managed to get a decent job at the hospital there and work full-time in the Emergency room for the last year. During this time I was to figure out what I wanted in life and that was to get into the healthcare industry. Even though Campbell isn't my first University I attended, its been a while since I was last in school, having served in the Military for the last five years. After applying to the Exercise and
early in life have an enormous impact on our future. I have always known that I wanted to directly impact people’s lives and my personal experiences have set me on the school-counseling path. In the future, I would love to influence another generation of students to soar for their dreams. During the past three years of college, my interest in counseling has been affirmed through a variety of experiences. One important experience that influenced my decision to pursue a career as a school counselor
Everyone has their own stories, meaningful or not it’s their life and their memories. When I been told to wrote a memoir about languages, I could not think about any ideas. My Professor told us that everyone has their own stories and it is interesting, because that is your experience not ours. People like to hear stories, because it’s not their experiences and they want to know what have you been through. Here are little stories about myself. I was born and grow up in China, Tianjin, a big city where
grew older, I realized nothing is as easy as it seems. I was at that age where life changing decisions were to be made. It was that time of the year when students in 8th grade pondered upon themselves deciding on different high schools to spend four years in. I’d like to describe myself as a very simple person. So going to a normal high school, that’s close to my house with almost half of the people from middle school sounded like the best decision ever. It was however, deemed as a bogus decision
