Senior Portfolio Reflection
Middle school and high school has been a very interesting experience for me. It has definitely been one exciting, yet scary, roller coaster. Overall, I feel like I have been equipped for not only college, but also life as a whole. School has taught me many things, both academically and emotionally. It has revealed my true colors, both good and bad, and as a result, has molded me into who I am today.
In 6th grade, I joined band class. I picked out the flute as my instrument of choice. In band is where I met some of my closest friends. I at first was hesitant to play out loud, but band helped me come out my shell of shyness. In 7th grade, I job shadowed my aunt that was a teacher. I began to want to become a teacher after seeing the joy she had when teaching students. In 8th grade, I joined the marching …show more content…
band. I met even more friends from the high school. The marching band began competitions and we made it all the way to State Championships where we came in top 10.
Starting high school in 9th grade I had already made several upperclassmen friends from band.
I was scared to start back at the bottom of the totem pole, but my friends made it better. Band was my safe haven in 9th grade, it was where I felt safe and where I could be myself. IOn band we continued doing competitions and concerts. I wasn’t preparing myself for college yet. Entering high school I had a very good GPA, but in 9th grade it dropped severely. I made the tough decision to drop band and focus on my grades more. In 10th grade I had finally was scared like I should have been in 9th grade. I didn’t have band to keep my safe anymore. I forced myself to make new friends outside of band, I did just that. I got through 10th grade with good grades and I still talked to some band friends. 11th grade was the one year that changed me. I made some best friends with people that I hadn’t really talked to since 9th grade. My friends and me had classes together and I was finally getting serious about college. I was taking classes to prepare me for my major, Early Childhood Education. I did really well in all my classes and I focused
more.
I’m in 12th grade now. I still have my best friends by my side. We are making college plans together now and loving life. I have never been this focused on school before. My friends don’t have classes with me, but we still find time to hand out. I am taking Teacher Cadet and Introduction to Early Childhood Education to prepare for my career choices in college.
In conclusion, I am very proud of how my school life has went. I feel accomplished in what I did during the last 7 years in school. School has prepared me for lies ahead in the future, for I am certain of that.
