Christ The King High School Research Paper

Decent Essays
I spent my entire life in private catholic schools so I figured I would be used to unfair rules. That was until I went to Christ the King high school. I attended Christ the King from freshman year til senior year when I graduated. Every day I had to follow rules, but the worst was the rule on facial hair, and how the principal handled it. We weren't allowed to have any facial hair otherwise we would be forced to shave in school or sent home. This rule was unfair because of the health risks, and the punishments involved.

The deans of the school would walk around the school in the morning to make sure you were in full dress code, and not have any facial hair. If you were unlucky enough to get sent down because of your facial hair you had two

    Last year when I was in 8th Grade and before I moved to a public school, I had a few Groundhog Days. I was at the private school “Peniel Baptist Academy.” That private school was very sheltered and every time that you did ANYTHING wrong they would punish you severely. The school was a very religious and a “holy” place. We would always have chapel on Wednesdays and if you came not dressed in your “church clothes” they would lecture you about how it is “unGodly” and how you are severely disrespecting him.…

    What my husband's advancement to Chief Petty Officer means to me? The answer of that question could be 10 pages long or I could just resume what I feel in one word, "extremely proud", well I guess two words.

On the other hand, he was a little immature, unfocused when it comes to work, and nothing seemed to fulfill his expectations. I always knew that his passion was a career in the military, but that was out of question in my book!…
