498 Words2 Pages
Going to a ‘good high school’ is really an important goal to set up a successful life. The people and education can help form what kind of person you will be as an adult, how you change your world for the better, whether on personal or global level. But what a good school is can mean many different things depending on what goals are set ahead for the high school years and beyond. I want to be accepted into a private high school, be involved and happy with the community, be pushed to achieve to my limits academically, and enjoy my time learning and experiencing the communities and people around me. My individual talents, interests, and ideas are parts of myself that I want to nurture and share with others.

As I traveled through each grade of the Croton-Harmon High School, my personal and academic goals helped to me to really flourish. These goals may have varied from year to year because a freshman is a little different from a senior, but they basically had all the same concept: I wanted to strive in school to be the best all-around student I could be, constantly stay focused and immerse myself in the Croton community. By setting my expectations and goals very high, I could flourish academically and really work to my full potential.

Before we moved I only knew 3 people that attended West Delaware and out of those people, none of them are my age.

When people think of the phrase, “the good life”, they immediately think of money; stellar paychecks, lavish vacations, and European sport cars. While that may sound appealing, I think money is only a small fraction of what the good life really is. I associate the good life with comfort. A comfortable life isn’t luxurious; It’s pursuing a career you’re passionate about and making enough money from it to support your family and do the things you love without falling into debt. Something I hope to lose while I’m in college is any shred of ignorance that I may have.

High school has impacted my life in so many ways. High School taught me so many things, from personal relationships to creating a relationship with my education.
