How I overcome my barrier.

I am a participant of our school's drama club. In the lasts few weeks of drama club I get really busy. Currently I have drama right after school until 5:30. In the last two week I have been sick, which means I had homework to make up, drama until at least 5:00, a orchestra an hour and a half after drama, and a test review for homework all on the same day. In my church I am also in charge of a drive for 3 groups of people each with about 300 people each. As you can imagine this was very difficult. In the beginning this was all very taxing, and it still is. But I had made a commitment. I used the value commitment. I showed commitment by catching up on my school work, continuing my rehearsals for drama even though

    Homework In High School

The credits range from twenty credits to twenty-three credits. I feel that making each student finish one-hundred hours of community service in order to graduate is unfair. It also makes no sense because the average number of students that go to a high school are roughly four-hundred. That means that if every student has to do one-hundred hours of community service then eventually they are going to run out of things to get done.…
