Next year with the grace of god, I will be attending Gordon College in Wenham Massachusetts. Gordon College is a private Christian institution about twenty minutes outside of Boston. At Gordon I will be studying pre-law and getting a Major in social work. I will be getting a major in social work while on the pre law track so that Hopefully one day I can become a family lawyer for the less fortunate. Being a social worker will have numerous unappealing aspects to it, but it’s something I feel strongly about because I feel …show more content…
that every kid no matter what race, gender, or sexual preference you have should be given a home that’s loving and caring no matter what aspects of life you go through, and that’s exactly what social worker’s career’s revolve around.
For my “Star Educator” I have chosen Mrs.
Young De Trejo A.K.A momma. I met Mrs. Trejo my sophomore year due to having joined our theatre UIL program here at Sam Houston. At first glance during contest mode Mrs. Trejo can be very scary and intimidating, but really she is assertive and truly caring just like any mother would be. Ms. Trejo was a blessing soon to come. Throughout these past three years I have went through a multitude of things and one of the only people to be there for me was Mrs. Trejo. She was not only there for me but she cared for me like I was one of her own children, and she was like his with our whole theatre group. While not only being a caring mother figure Mrs. Trejo has also been a great and inspiring acting coach and theatre teacher. When first joining the theatre program I had stage fright and had never acted before but when Mrs. Trejo was done with me I was a completely different person, I am now outgoing and love to be on stage portraying characters of all kinds. Mrs. Trejo doesn’t get enough recognition for what she does because she does more than almost anyone I know. For this I want to say Thank you Mrs. Trejo for all that you have done and continue to do, your truly a blessing, I love you and thank
you.
Being a part of the Gear up program has opened my eyes up to new heights and limits that I didn’t think was possible before, and for that I thank you Mrs. Scott, and the whole Gear up foundation.
Lastly I want to thank my grandparents, these last two years I have been involved in so much and yet they were at every event, every play, and didn’t miss a football game in the past two years. Thank you guys for supporting me in everything that I’ve done and thank you for taking me in when you didn’t have to, I love you guys and couldn’t do anything without you all.
