Recommended: Effects of high college tuition costs

It is my Senior year, and I have accomplished a few great things so far. I have been in Honors math courses since Freshman year; I took an AP course and I got a three on the exam, which will be enough to earn college credits at some colleges I am looking at. I also got invited to National Honor Society last year, and I am in it this year as well. I have a lot of things I want to accomplish before the end of my last year at Old Orchard Beach High School and hopefully during this quarter. For the first quarter, I want to find a job. I know it would be really challenging to have a job during Senior year. I had a summer job at a motel, but I need something year-round now. The year has been a little bit challenging, and the challenge is only going to get greater. I will be working to get my Nursing Assistant certification at Biddeford Regional Center of Technology. If I was to get that, I would have a job before I got out of high school that would pay me around $30,000 a year. Since I mentioned it in the last paragraph, my main goal for this year is to get CNA certified and have a job at a hospital or nursing home before I graduate. Don’t get me wrong, I want to get good grades in all of my classes, but I still count this …show more content…

In Honors calculus, I would get 3 credits for Calculus and in Intro to Medical Sciences, I would get 3 credits in Medical Terminology. The Medical Terminology course just requires some extra vocabulary in each unit and getting a C or better in the class over the whole year; the course is also free, so that is about $1,000 I would be saving. The Calculus course requires a C or better for the whole year and a fee of $75. I would say $75 is better than $1,000; in addition, I find Mrs. Conley’s teaching helpful and understanding and I might not feel that way about the college professor I could

“This we’ll defend”: This is the motto of the United States Army, as well as the 3rd Infantry Regiment, also known as the “Old Guard.” These are the sentinels who guard the tombs of three unknown soldiers: One never identified from the First World War; another that never found his family from World War Two; and another shot down and never recognized in Korea. Laying a wreath on the tomb of these three unknown soldiers is considered synonymous as laying a wreath on every unknown and unidentified soldier and one of the highest honors for a United States citizen.

The reason my senior year means so much to me is because throughout my journey I experienced so many things that slowly shaped me as not only a student but as a person. “With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet, You’re too smart to go down any not so good street.” Dr. Seuss. With my head full and my feet snugly fit into some beat up Converse, I walked myself into the wrong crowd and some crappy situations. After the cloud of adrenaline drifted out of my sights I realized that I was too smart to be in the situation I put myself in.

In the next few minutes I will show you the problems that educators and children, in the public school system, face because of the traditional, but out-dated calendar. I will then introduce you to some of the aspects of year-round school and show you how it is a better alternative than the current nine month calendar. There are, as I see it, 4 key issues that illustrate why the nine-month calendar is a problem. First, it is a 100-year-old system that was implemented to accommodate an agrarian society.

Chicago is known throughout the United States as having one of the worst public school systems in the country. Although I attend a private school, each day that I sit in my English class, I have a clear view through the windows of the public school across the street, where other students my age who are equally as talented and intelligent as I am are in overcrowded classrooms without the resources and opportunities that I have. At Ignatius, I have had the chance to travel around the world and join exciting clubs. I have also been able to work with teachers who have the time to meet with me individually and be in an environment where everyone is genuinely excited to learn. Ignatius is surrounded by public housing buildings and run down schools and when I look through the window at the other school, it reminds me that others are not as lucky as I am.

As graduation gets closer, I start to think more about my future. The results from one of my assessments on Nebraska Career Connections opened a new door into the health science field. I discovered the career of a nurse anesthetist, and am ready to pursue this option.

_About Radical The social movements of the 1960s and 1970s potentiated an engine of creative period in the architectural design, architectural theory, and architectural critic fields, especially for including the role of politics and technology. This transdisciplinary relation reappeared again in 2011, when global social protests and occupations like the Occupy Movement or the Arab Spring challenged the established system. In this regard, 2011 started a chain of civil disobedience and demonstrations through the virtual space, using the Internet to call for actions in the streets. Most of these events and groups were called “radical” and “dissident,” a word that was intonated with a negative feature.

Freshmen are the babies of our school, and, as expected, this is applied literally or figuratively depending on the person. They can be the most immature group of kids that you could possibly have to deal with, but if you’re lucky, you’ll get the few that are somewhat attentive to the “stupid” topics you try to engage them in. However, it isn’t necessarily their fault, nor is it the teacher’s. In fact, it’s due to our society having an inability to express simple acts of kindness, a level of patience with those who have short attention spans, and be aware of the individuals who refrain from revealing any type of emotion.

Every high schooler goes through the stage in life where people always ask you, “What are you planning on studying in college? Where do you plan on going to college?” For some, they have decided what they want to do since they were a child, for others, like me, they have no idea of what they want to do. I finally gained inspiration from my annual vacation, this time to Alaska. My grandparents have made me very fortunate by taking me and my family on a vacation abroad every year.

What would you do if there was no summer break? Most people would be very sad because summer break is a time when kids get off from school. They get a break because it was thought, back in the 1800’s that having school all year long would damage the student 's health, so they decided to take a break in the summer season. Many kids loved the idea and think summer break is the best to this day on. Summer break is the best because there is no school, you can go on vacation, and you can spend time with your friends and family.

I’m a very open-minded, patient and, caring person, but I might not be this person today if it wasn’t for music, acting, and band. These are the perfect three that define me, and who I am today. The rule of three is the principle where everything in threes is perfect. They are books and slogans on the matter; “The Three little Pigs”, and The Three Musketeers. They all fit together in some way and have one common goal.

Hard work triumphs over talent; I learned this in eleventh grade. I struggled to pass my mathematics class; I averaged a C- in basically every math class I took. I believed that I would always struggle in math; I saw no light at the end of my tunnel for my peril. I was adamant about not taking calculus, because I believed that I would fail that class. I refused to sign up for that class, but after many circumstances, I finally enrolled in calculus, just one month late.
