Sophomore

something outstanding that sets the course for the rest of your life. I have many things in my life that have impacted me a great deal. Something that in my life that lead me to pursue something that I love is my Recreation Sports class that I took as a sophomore while I was still living in Casper, and the experience of moving encouraged me to go out for track. Going out for track was probably the best decision…

harder and practice whenever I could. That next year I made the team. Since then, I’ve been captain of the team in eighth grade, started varsity as a freshman, became captain of the high school team as a sophomore (and still currently hold that title), made all-division (third team) as a sophomore, made all-division (first team) as a junior, won the Cox Rhode Island Sport award, and became captain of my travel ball team.…

Personal Statement I am interested in pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. Up until senior year, I thought I wanted to be a civil engineer. My experience as a nanny and many volunteer activities led me search for careers involving children. School-to-Work introduced me to a career path that interested me. My teacher recommended a class called Children’s Literature. During this class I received about 40 practicum hours. This helped confirm my interest in education. My mom wanted to be…

Studies show that freshman and sophomore woman are more at risk. Sorority members are more at risk. Mentoring programs partnered with the sororities should be established and the university should make these programs a top priority. Every student that is a member of the above classifications…

suffered patella luxation, more commonly known as the dislocation of the kneecap. I was in a full leg brace for a month and a half, then participated in extensive physical therapy over my summer break until I could finally return to dance for my sophomore year at Booker T. Washington. The time I spent unable to dance led me to explore other pathways associated with the arts. Because I was not able to participate in my technique classes I was told to take extensive notes over corrections and the…

solution. I am certainly not unfamiliar with this feeling. My first time at Trinity Preparatory School came with both a great amount of academic and personal bumps because I went in with unrealistic expectations about what would take place. It was my sophomore year in high school, I was coming from a sports powerhouse, Winter Park High School, and had more confidence than your average fifteen year old, despite being told earlier that summer that transferring from a public school to a private…

and everyone went to their classes "assigned" seats and began engulfing their lunches. As I continued watching, the immaturity soon revealed itself. The upperclassmen "role models" catapult food at the sophomores, antagonizing the sophomores to retaliate. After the small dispute several sophomores and juniors were pulled aside and interrogated as to what their motives were. The total disregard for cleanliness and neatness was also noted. Mostly every student left his or her lunch and garbage on…

Fitness Analysis In the beginning of ninth grade on my twelve-minute run I got 2400 meters; soon after on the posttest I got 2900 meters. To start my sophomore year I got 2800 meters which was a slight decrease in the distance change from ninth to tenth grade year. To finish the run I ended with a major increase of 300 meters, ultimately giving me 3100 meters for my twelve-minute run. My swim laps went from 32 to 34 my first class year; then the next year I got 36 and ended with a small cutback…

When I was fourteen I became preoccupied with the idea of skipping class. My entire freshman year and half of my sophomore year of high school I spent skipping my classes. This created very bad academic habits for me and also put me at risk for not graduating on time with the rest of my class. In my freshman year of high school I would spend most of my time skipping my fourth period which was my English class. By the time I had gotten in trouble for skipping English my grade had fallen to…

licensed, leaving legal teens without an I.D. Instead of them having to show an I.D , such as a driver's license, They should let teens use their school I.D or something to show that they could be old enough. They should let teens that are sophomores and up. Sophomores are usually 15 or 16 years old so they are mature enough to see rated R movies. The MPAA needs to let the movie makers rate the movies instead of having random parents rate them. It is a good idea to let parents pick but all…
