Junior college

chapter at my junior high school had extra birds going to the fair, and I signed up to exhibit one and participate in showmanship. Even though she only received a red ribbon and I did not win showmanship, my first county fair was just a precursor for what was to come for me in agriculture, and I was hooked. Not only did I have a prosperous youth career exhibiting poultry across the state, I gained countless experiences in FFA and later 4-H, relationships with many amazing people, a college…

some of the most enjoyable times in my life have occurred when I have been teaching. My first teaching experience was when I was twenty as a camp counselor. It was a camp for junior high school students and I got to teach them in groups and one on one with each student. I was in locum parentis for one week with each group of junior high school students. I took them to each meal of the day and guided them through activities as well as teaching and overall caretaking of the students. Additionally,…

Junior year of high school is a tough one. You’re still trying to find yourself, yet you load up on courses and push to get straight A’s to impress those colleges out there. You begin to craft an application essay, learn more about each school, and narrow it down to a few choices so you can go visit them come spring time. Nope, that wasn’t me. I couldn’t find myself, and I was still in the early stages of planning out what I really wanted to do with my life. Didn’t care too much for school…

business program, I could broaden my experience in the work field to understand more about management. I have encountered many strengths and weakness while I went to school at Joliet Junior College for my associate degree in arts. Let’s first talk about my strengths that I had while I attended Joliet Junior College. First of all, the best thing that I did while attending JJC would be that I had perfect attendance. Showing up every day for class…

If you could, would you graduate high school a year early? I think you should go to high school for the whole four years because it allows more time with friends, more education, and less stress. The first reason students shouldn’t graduate as a junior is because they would be giving up a whole year with their friends. 75% of seniors attend senior prom, teenagers shouldn’t miss the biggest night of their high school life. Senior year is supposed to be a great year when kids make memories and…

College for me is a new experience, a place where I will gain an education higher than what high school had to offer. Though there was much encouragement from friends and family to take the next step, going to college was ultimately my decision to make. While going through the pros and cons of college the positive attributes of what college had to offer for my future heavily outweighed the positives as my field of study, network administration, requires a bachelor's degree to remain competitive…

During my junior year of high school I struggled to meet my academic standards. My junior year turned out to be one of the most challenging times in my life, as I had to encounter a tough class work load, my father had been hospitalized and I myself suffered injuries that required trips to the hospital. All these events accumulated and caused my life to take a dramatic spin. While trying to maintain my academic excellence midway through my first semester of my junior year my father suffered a…

relatable for me. High school was incredibly stressful; I can relate with almost all of the students who spoke in the documentary. I worked 30 hours a week after school, I was in the marching band, and I was taking two advanced placement classes my junior year. The workload took effect on all areas of my life. Every class was focused on standardized testing. My school had assemblies all of the time that encouraged us to do well on them. I don’t feel as though I learned anything. The…

During my junior year I experienced failure. I had taken 3 AP classes and I was in cheer at my high school, and trying to figure out a balance between the two was difficult for me because it seemed like cheer took up a lot of my time and in the past other two years it had, but I had managed to still do well in my honors and AP classes. My junior year was another story, I struggled a lot at the beginning of the school year, and most of first semester was spent with me having an F sometimes more…

The NFL and college football have changed from each other drastically. College football differs from the NFL in various of ways.
