Personal Statement: A Career In High School
As I've gotten older through the years, mostly my late middle school and high school years, my interest in job careers has changed many times. Right now I'm interested in working with children. Mostly focusing on their development during preschool years. I've always wanted to work with people, I just didn't know in which field. This interests me because I can be the authority figure, gain experience in children before I actually have kids, and I can do a program for this during my junior and senior years in high school.

When working with people, especially adults, it can be frustrating dealing with their reactions and certain attitudes. With young children, you can control the situation easier by being the authority figure. Being the boss

    I enjoyed being with children so much that my first “real-world” paying job was at a summer camp. Between volunteering at the church Vacation Bible School and working at the summer camp I realized I have a great connection with children and can help make a difference in their lives and that is what I seek to do. I have since been employed at a few different childcare facilities along with a music store and book store but no matter what I always found myself returning to working in either a childcare or school…

    In the show Jersey Shore the cast demonstrates a number of stereotypes such as gender roles, a difference between male and a female, the behaviors of Italian American and the lives of young adults’. Some might think Jersey Shore is a good show to watch; however it shows the negative behavior and attitudes towards men, women and young adults in many ways. The show also sets a poor example for viewers by presentation these stereotypes in a negative way. After reading the Academic research and the article “The Reality Television of Reality Television” by Mark Greif it exposed me why these stereotypes are not good for the cast as well as for the viewers.…

    After Graduate School, I hope to have my PhD in psychology or my doctorate in psychiatry. I would like to start out working in jails, talking to criminals and analyzing their brains versus the brain of an average adult to study how the brain reacts with criminal activity and why they do and feel what they do. I have heard that a person can not do that type of work for very long because it is emotionally tasking so after that, I would like to open my own counseling practice up. I would do either marriage and family therapy or focus on teenage depression. Eventually, I would like to retire into school psychology or become a psychology teacher. Also, if I ever have enough money, I will buy a house devoted to taking in stray animals…

    All children are required to graduate high school, but pursuing higher education is only recommended. While high school curriculum is designed to prepare students for higher education, students learn essential career readiness skills while enrolling in higher education classes. Since students are not obliged to pursue higher education, many students who decide not to continue their education lack the skills necessary for future careers. While some schools hope to implement career readiness for either all their students or for only the students who do not wish to pursue college, other schools do not want to offer career readiness programs as they believe that it offers incentives for students not to attend college. Schools should require all students to take career readiness classes as…

    High school is one of the biggest transitions in a person's early life. You go from being at the top in your school to the bottom. For me, it was very hard to adjust to this change. On my first day of high school, I walked into first period so nervous I thought I was going to get sick. This is much like what happened during my transition into middle school. On the first day at Mazzuchelli, right before the first class began, I threw up all over the floor of the classroom. I’m not a big fan of change. To make matters worse, the first week of high school was outrageously hot. The combination of the heat and my nerves made me sweat uncontrollably. At the time, I felt very self conscious of sweating during class. As bad as these first few days…

    In four years when I read this I honestly won’t be surprised if nothing really changes. I can’t see myself changing in any major ways. I will always love sports, hunting, fishing guns and anything that has four wheels. I sure I will still not understand the point of reading books for school and writing long papers about things that I don’t exactly care or relate to me. Although, in order for this letter to do it’s job in four years I need to start from the beginning.…

    Education has always been one of the most important things to me, and I am dedicated to learn as much as humanly possible. Throughout my high school career I have challenged myself by completing six advanced placement classes and taking other honors classes. I have taken these classes as a way to help guide myself for what is to come in the future in college. I was inducted into the National Honors Society during my junior year of high school, and I graduated with honors. Both of these successes are the two greatest accomplishments of my high school career. These two achievements prove how dedicated I was, and still am, to getting the best education I could. My quality of dedication will stick with me throughout my future endeavors.…

    Throughout my high school career I have always held a job and have always tried my hardest to help other people in any way possible. In the middle of my freshman year at Haverford High School I received a job at a restaurant called Primavera, here i worked as a hostess two times a week. I later moved on to work at a small business called The Head Nut towards the end of my sophomore year, and have worked there ever since. At The Head Nut I work at least 22 hours per week, this has taught me extremely important lessons about how to manage my school work while still maintaining time for work, family, friends and any other activity I do outside of school. In addition to working so often I have also volunteered several times with my mom at a soup…
