Key Club Research Paper
High school is a time of growth and change. In order to stimulate a better environment for that change, students need to be engaged in their community. I think being involved in communities reaps many benefits such as: providing different experiences; creating new friendships; and strengthening character. Without strong communities, it's easy to fall victim to negative influences.

In my life, there are a lot of experiences I never would have had, if i weren't involved in my community. I wouldn't be able to know about the troubles our community goes through in terms of poverty, if it hadn't been for my time with the Key Club. I wouldn't be able to know about all the places i know today if I hadn't been pushed out of my comfort zone by people

    For example, a great way for a teacher to get involved in is becoming a coach for a sports team at the school. This is a way for a teacher to interact and development relationships with students they have and don’t have in their classrooms during the school day. The teacher would can guide them in the sport, school, and anything else the student is comfortable discussing with based on the relationship with the teacher. Another way a teacher can get involved is through a program outside of the school setting and within the community. This gives the teacher the opportunity to interact with those who are not associated with the school (colleagues, students, administration, etc.) and to get a different perspective on community than what they experience through the school setting. Getting involved in the community gives the teacher a chance to help on making the community a better place to be, which can play a huge effect towards the education system. Based on my experience in high school and through field experience thus far in a middle school, teachers getting involved in a program or activity should be required when teaching. It allows them to become a bigger part in not only the students’, but community’s life when being known for more than just teaching a subject in a classroom daily. The teacher will create a…

    After being a part of Key Club throughout my high school years, I learned how to give back to the community that has raised me and the conspicuous impact I can have in someone’s life simply through volunteering. Through Key Club, I help create service projects with local organizations and give members of our club an opportunity to volunteer and give back. One experience I will never forget is helping set up a blood drive in school with one of our local organizations, Bloodworks Northwest, a local blood bank that helps saves lives through research, innovation and education in blood. Our Key Club had to inform the school of the event that was happening, and encourage students to donate blood. It required hours of creating posters, informing the…

    Being an active member of a community is critical to creating a good learning atmosphere. The word community is sometimes overused and does not get the emphasis it desires. People want to feel apart of something and creating a functioning system is necessary for success. I have always had a love for working with a team and as a leader, I try to help others achieve their goals. If I attended Villanova, I would make the noun community become a verb by helping others, accepting others, and leading others.…

    Ever since my freshman year of high school, I’ve wanted to be a member of the National Honors Society. Being a part of the National Honors Society meant that I would have done well in both my studies and contributing time in my community. In order to reach my goal, I took multiple honors and AP classes to enhance my knowledge. These classes were indeed rigorous and there were many occurrences where I stayed up late doing homework or studying. During these times I felt like giving up, but the passion I had for conquering my goal burnt too brightly. The hard work I’ve placed on my studies has certainly paid off because now I’m at the top 5% in my class with a 3.8 GPA. Also throughout I’ve helped my community in multiple ways such as volunteering…

    At school teachers please us with field trips and fun activities. So since they do this it makes me work harder at school to show that I am appreciative to what the teachers have done for my peers and I. This makes an impact on me because the teachers don't need to do all the things that they do for us. Every year my family down it's close to the kids that need clothing. This allows kids to be warm during winter and have a good set of clothes. donating clothes makes an impact on me because no kid or adult should be cold during winter or be left alone with no…

    The community plays the role of achievement in enhancing public education. It consists of all the neighborhoods and people living in them associated to the public school. The community of public schools influences the decisions that assist the future intellects of the world to become prosperous. Achievement is what students strive to attain in order to make people around them and themselves both proud and happy. It could also be what students want in order to convince themselves that they are doing things right and the path to a better future is developing.
