Tenth grade

Life in tenth grade has pretty much been just like life in first, fourth, or even ninth. It is a matter of going to school, listening in class, getting home, then doing your homework. But, sometimes somewhere in your daily routine, there are drops of inspiration and awe that you hold onto until the next class, day, or even year. Through the past few years, I have gathered much information in the intense classes, while casting the calmer ones to the side with the wave of a hand. This year in Bais

written. In Mr. Mechanic’s tenth grade English class the circles focused on literary elements contained in two poems. In the middle section, Mr. Mechanic had the students discuss the literary elements that were found in both of these works. The use of this Venn diagram helped the students better understand each individual section, as well as recognize the way certain elements can be used in multiple ways. (Observe class notes 6, 8) Both Mr. Colvin, in his eleventh grade English class, and Ms. Katz

Writer’s Statement In my writing, my goal was to portray my experiences with the online AP Calculus AB course I took last year (sophomore year), in order to demonstrate when I learned some of the most important lessons in my life. Furthermore, through the use of different parts of my personal experiences, I also wished to address the different lessons that I learned; hopefully using the contributions of all of these lessons to arrive at a “final” lesson. To do this, I decided to focus on three main

about previous and future relationships, unfortunately he used it against me. In my Latin 2 class last year, there were few tenth graders. I mainly associated with Tori Vincent, Nigel Enoch and Henry Hawkins. The four of us formed a bond. Within that bond, Henry and I had our own bond. Philip Lee and I had a very special friendship during ninth grade up until half of tenth grade. We did everything together, but I guess we just got tired of each other. He moved onto Maya Rubio and Lily Kleinbub and I

When I was thirteen, I remember people telling me to prepare for high school to be the four best years of my life. Looking back, it saddens me that I can barely identify a single day that is anything worth remembering. Since I was six years old, I had struggled with accepting my body. Many of my earliest fears are ones regarding weight, fat, how people gain weight, and how being overweight is “bad”. It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly when my issues with food began to surface; however, I think it’s

Providence College is a liberal arts college, which consists of roughly four thousand undergraduate students, located in Providence, Rhode Island. One of the staples of the college has been the ability to live off-campus on Eaton Street starting in a student’s junior year. The attraction stems from most of the party scene on the weekends being at these houses on the streets bordering the campus. However, starting in the Fall of 2017, the school is implicating a new policy that juniors are required

In a land called Japan, lay a run down shack in between mountain Fuji and a forest. From a look, the shack will collapse from any second by the early winds that blew across the sky. As the sun starts to rise from the east, wild animals awaken from their slumber to hunt. Inside the house(shack), lays a man stirring from his sleep. As he opens his eyes, they shine forest green as he stared at open space. As I opened my eyes from darkness, light shined from the little open space of straws that lay

What other responsibilities do you anticipate having next year, and how will they affect your schedule and availability? Keeping in mind of my Junior year schedule and the challenges that entails the 11th grade, I will be taking the SAT and ACT exams in the fall as well. This may impact my availability on select weekends throughout the school year. In addition, I have several school club leadership responsibilities, which may slightly impact my schedule. I have maintained a regular shift as a volunteer

As an artist would create a new piece, multiple events have shaped me into the person I am today. My life is a mixture of inspirational highs and heavy lows. However, despite my misfortunes and amidst my revelations, one moment of immense personal growth stands above them all - and in fact, it wasn’t a moment, it was a process. My grandmother had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s when I was eight, and since I was in middle school, lived with my family and I. She passed away last March, and through

In life, everyone gets to experience moments that they will cherish forever, as well as the ones that hurt to look back at. I’ve had the disappointing pleasure of having these moments back to back years. They both have to deal with the sport that challenges me from all aspects in life. Wrestling has ran in the Ybarra family for generations. I felt great coming out of sophomore year, as the Class B, 126 pound state champion. Before I knew it, I was already walking the halls as a Junior after the summer
