The Quaker City by George Lippard was one of the required novels my teacher chose for English my junior year of high school. Published in 1845, this novel used challenging language which was difficult to understand. For years I haven’t been able to read books that I enjoy; I was always too busy reading the books picked for me by my English teachers.

Sixth grade was a transition from a senior of lower school to a pre-k in middle school. I have been at Lake Mary Prep since I was in junior academy in 2005, but the school was first built in 1999. Through my years at LMP, fifth grade was hands down my favorite grade, but when I entered sixth grade everything changed. Leaving the securely locked doors of the elementary school was hard at first, but the independence of sixth grade made it better. We didn’t have a lot of freedom; that was the opposite

There is a little legend library outside of the community’s church Iglesia de los Hechos. During the summer the church serves around 300 hundred children every week and throughout the school year. Since this community is distant from services such as the public library and not many have cars to take their children to the nearest library. Having this in place is a great strength for the children and others in this community, it gives the

to be the toughest is the transition from Elementary to Middle School. This was very terrifying for me as 11 year old juvenile. So what did I do? I made friends, did my best on my work, and looked toward the future. I wanted and still want my future to be finishing high school with honors, and working for United Airlines as a Captain. As a Sophomore in Park View High School, I have very much so passed the transition from Elementary to Middle, and feel good about how I overcame

Sports profile/Memories During my junior year at Kent, I met one of the most hardworking people that I would probably ever meet. We met in the fall when we both tried out for JV soccer. Being both inexperienced and totally unfocused, it wasn’t much of a surprise when we both got cut. I know that it’s ironic that I’m calling this girl hardworking and then unfocused, but just hear me out. Getting cut from JV soccer was honestly the best thing that’s ever happened to me because otherwise I probably

She slept on her cot in the office until they finally "had time" to come and get her. I made it

boys which I didn’t really want to wrestle. I decided to work with a girl that was at least 20lbs more than me, which made me push more harder. Games were the best when it was at other schools because even though we didn't win any bouts (rounds we are given to pair against other players) the bus ride back to school was

sources I have come to learn that the honor codes were made so there would be less cheating. I’m not so fond of the honor code. As a high school student, I see cheating going on every day. Cheating has become normal now because all the students care about is passing. After all, isn’t that what school is about now, passing and not actually gaining knowledge.
