The school that I have decided to try to do service learning at is Westside Elementary in Springville, Utah. Westside is a coed public school in the Nebo School district. I grew up in this area and attended this school growing up and I felt it was a great school to attend. The Nebo School District's mission statement is "we engage, empower, and collaborate to ensure student success". The school received a 5 out of 10 rating and the neighborhood is quite large, but for the most part is quiet and has a low crime rate.…
My name Rogelio Ornelas and was born in Grand Junction, Colorado. When I was a child I moved one house to another, so it was hard for me to adapt new environment. Finally, we settled in Stockton, California 2012 and I’ve been here ever since. Two words that I would describe myself as are trustworthy and resourceful. Trustworthy because I always try to finish my homework before other things.…
Lee Early College (LEC) has been in my thoughts ever since my older sister Payton has attended there. My sister and I are very close; she has taught me so much about life and school. She makes me strive to do better and actually make me want to become something one day. Therefore, I would like to follow in her footsteps to become a role model like she was for younger kids. LEC seems like the type of school for me because I’m very intelligent, hardworking, sociable and independent.…
The average high school student drives a mile or so to an institution they dread going to each day. I, on the other hand, wake up over 2 hours early to drive 15 miles to Loyola High School so that I can pursue my academic interests. On top of that my family struggles to pay tuition and the students who go there are some of the brightest individuals in California so why would I go to this place? I think that my school has prepared me with the resources to confront any situation that I am put in and the skills I have acquired have been enhanced by the competitive environment I am surrounded by each day.…
The question is innocent enough. Why did I decide to take cosmetology? There are hundreds of thousands of career paths out there, but this is something I am passionate about. Cosmetology is the art and science of creating, and enhancing the beauty a person already has. A cosmetologist is the cocoon in which a caterpillar entrusts to bring out their inner confidence, to allow them to feel good inside and out.…
College may not be right for everybody but it is for the majority. In my opinion, high school is required and essential for every single person because it teaches us so many valuable life lessons. Not only does it teach us important life lessons but it also is essential for our social lives.…
INTRODUCTION Race relations in America has always been exceptionally antagonistic, as compared to other nations (Myrdal, 1944). The disproportional number of minorities, especially Blacks, being involved in the criminal justice system, has often been highlighted to indicate the level of racial tension in the country. In the 1970s, however, findings regarding the disproportional distribution of school punishment among Black students (see Child Defense Fund, 1975), pointed out to the fact that racial disparities and tensions are not restricted to the criminal justice system alone, rather schools too are influenced by them. Since the report in 1975, a number of researchers have attempted to study the link between race and school punishments…
The school that I attended was a primarily white student school with about one tenth of each grade being Hispanic. Our teaching staff was also primarily white with a few Hispanic teachers in the whole school. During school, we were all in the same classes. In my Spanish class, my teacher used the opportunity of having a mixed class to her advantage. When we were allowed to pick our own groups, she encouraged that the Hispanics and the white kids worked together instead of being separated.…
I am interested in the Early College Academy because it is a great opportunity. I understand that I will have to do a lot more work here than in other schools because of the college courses, but that does not matter to me. I will still study and work hard for the duration of my time here. This is the only school in which I can knock off two years of college for free. I also like the schedule here and how it's shorter, but I understand that I will have to use the rest of the time for studying and that's alright for me because in order achieve one's goals one has to work hard and that's what I…
To Whom It Concerns, Recently through my own experiences and talking to people I have discovered an interest in Cyber School. After conducting a thorough research I was able to come across SusQ- Cyber Charter School. After reading the school’s mission statement, belief system, and handbook I have come to a decision. SusQ- Cyber Charter School not only helps students, but helps them excel in classes, and helps the student if they are lacking.…
When i am with students from other school, one question always comes, how many students is enrolled in your school? And they are always surprised by the fact that there is over 4000 students in my school. Therefore making it hard hard for all of us to know everything about each other, adding the fact that BHS is one of the most diverse schools in this region. Every day when i am walking through the hallway and look around me it is hard to say “i am actually in the United States of America”. This is because of the many different faces i see every day, each one of them having a different story behind them.…
A person with opportunity is most likely to accept it than deny it. This is an opportunity that will help send me in the path that I love and wonder about every day. Many years in my education I wondered what will happen in the future and how my life will be. Now as I grow older I notice many talents within me that I will like to release into the world. I love to help people, understand how things work and what is the science and math behind it.…

Southside elementary has 15% of students with an Individualized Education Programs. In my classroom, there are eight students with a Student Assistance Team plan in place. This is almost 35% of my students.…
The basic facts that I have given in my general application are only the facts that have been written down and kept record of. They don’t tell you who I am as a person, nor do they tell you if I would be a good candidate for your school. Hopefully, in this personal testimony of mine, I would like to explain some of the reasons why you should consider me as a student that is right for your school. I would first like to start off saying that your school is at the top of my list, as well as many others. I know that I am a perfect candidate for FIT as I have learned many great things in high school and at the community college I attend that will benefit me on my journey as I go to transfer to a four year University of my choice.…
