In modern society, young women can personally choose how their lives will pan out. They can choose to pursue education at a college or work towards their careers. Or, they can choose to take a few years off of school to discover themselves and what they truly want. Other women may choose to get married or take care of their family. However, women's choices were not as wide and diverse in the 1940s, especially in rural or southern states. Many women would get married at a young age and become…

In the short story, “First Day of School” by R.V. Cassill, it is about a boy named John who is going to start a school year at an all-white high school for the first time and for the end of segregation of schools. In the historical dramatization, “The Fight for What’s Right” by Spencer Kayden, a girl named Sylvia Mendez is not allowed to go to an all-white school, so they make a law case for desegregation for schools. The 2 different texts support the topic of desegregation with similarities and…

My Favorite Mistake It seems like everyone has a special talent. At annual school talent shows I would come up empty handed trying to think of what I could perform. It seemed as though I didn’t have any talents that I could perform. I received outstanding grades, I could easily comprehend literature, and I was quick at solving math problems, but I couldn’t perform any of those talents for an audience. I blame myself for my lack of performing talent. I once was an excellent pianist. The…

Personal Reflection/Hypothesis The social issue I picked for my dissertation is early school times affect on students grades. My personal reflection on this topic is that I think school should start later because from personal experiences almost everyday I wake up for school and i’m still tired, and I know every grown up says “maybe you shouldn’t stay up so late and go to sleep earlier” but that’s the thing we can’t because we have homework, work and sports etc. I understand that if we started…

Anaheim High School isn’t at its best anyone can notice the more time we need in classes for better grades. Other schools would notice this as well or have the same problem, Anaheim’s grades aren’t the best and or is the knowledge at Anaheim High School. The only thing seen is needing improvement on is the school hours and the reason why I mention this is because teachers know this is true. Students need time to learn even though there are those quick learners but there is also those that…

Most of us sometimes evoke nostalgic feelings from our past. Even if it is not a distant past, for instance, seniors who have about one year for graduating would miss the time when they just entered a university and some office workers would sometimes look back on their school days. Likewise, people often pine for the past, the time they think that they would feel happier than the present. Even so, are we going to be satisfied with our lives if we go back into the past that we hope to live? The…
