The failure that later led to my success was failing to get into my high school of choice. When I was in middle school‚ I lost my priorities and goals. My grades fell in middle school. Baltimore Polytechnic Institute(BPI) was known as the best school in Baltimore City. Both my siblings had gone to BPI and it was expected of me to attend. When I received my acceptance letter‚ I was put on the wait list. The deferral brought a shock to me as I just expected it to happen. That experience was the

should once again be thuaght in school‚ others think it shouldnt. I believe that cursive should not be in froced on the students. I do not use cursive and many others do not as well. Most handwritting is not in cursive‚ so theirfor I believe we do not need cursive. When I was younger I was tought cursive in the fourth grade but I did not understand and didnt not learn it. Cursive dose not make a child smart‚ and dose not need cursive for many things in life. In high school most teachers want the students

good in school‚ being involved in the community and of course going to college to break the cycle in which we lived. At a young age‚ I never really gave much thought to what they said or even thought about growing up‚ especially not in the community in which I was raised. I am originally from a very small town in the Central Valley. Our population consist of over 90% Latinos and agriculture workers from low economic backgrounds.

Everyone at some point has to go to middle school. For me i went from Maiden Elementary to Maiden Middle. Let me tell you it wasn’t all fun and games. Anyone who says different is most likely lying through their teeth. I got out of the car on the first day and i was nervous. I had no idea what would happen when i got inside. I didn’t know where i would go once i got inside. When i walked in they told us to go to the gym. When i got in the gym there were tons of new faces seventh and eighth graders

I awake before the sun. When I rise‚ I am greeted by the comforting darkness of the night‚ lulling me back to sleep. I engage in the daily brawl against my bed‚ struggling to get up. After a rough victory‚ I get out and start my day. I reach school by 8:00‚ where I spend the next 7 hours listening to the droning of teachers‚ laboring over assignments‚ and killing trees by taking pages of notes. Now‚ this scenario is not uncommon among most students. The average profile of several students shows that

Driving to school has been tough because most kids at my school dont know how to properly drive within the lines and park straight‚ so dodging a bunch of reckless rednecks in trucks and preppy girls in smart cars is a struggle. It’s not getting to school that’s the problem for me it’s the leaving at the end of the day with the other 1‚700 kids that drive. Our school population is about 2‚400 something and the more kids that decided to try for a parking permit is only making traffic worse. One evening

School spirit is what can make or break a school. Who wouldn’t want to go to a school that gets excited about all the things their school does? Everybody wants to go to the school that is excited about their sports and their theatre and their preforming arts and their academics and their clubs. Everybody wants to go to the school that has hype Friday night games. Blue Valley West is one of the best schools about school spirit and school pride. People get excited about the football games even when

Washington Elementary School is located in West Orange‚ New Jersey in a neighborhood where mostly African American and Hispanic businesses and people were surrounding the area. As I arrived to the school or left‚ I usually only saw minorities in the surrounding neighborhood. This correlated with the students I saw in the classroom I observed‚ and throughout the school. In the classroom there was a total of 17 students‚ all of which were minorities. Ten of the students are Hispanic and seven are

Envision walking down the school halls and not having any recollection of who your best friend is. Or being in the local store and passing by your friends but thinking they are total strangers. How about being put on an alzheimer’s medication your junior year of high school. This is what I was able to overcome during my concussion journey. I entered my freshman year of highschool with Post Concussive Syndrome that I developed from four separate concussions. Due to these traumatic brain injuries

decided to drop out of High School. I reassure myself that working was more important at the time than sitting in a classroom for eight hours. As years went by I needed to find myself a better paying job but I had one problem and that was not having an education. After working under the table for so long I knew I needed to move up in life. I wanted a better paying job. I put applications in everywhere but nobody wanted to hire someone without having either a GED or High school diploma. I knew I had to
