Damien Memorial High School
I need all kinds of fruits in my basket! What does that mean? At Damien, this phrase completely defines us. Damien Memorial High School Is filled with a lot of different ethnicities and different backgrounds. Damien to everyone may seem like it’s a bad school or we suck at sports and just another small school, but we’ve got heart and strong support for our school. The question is what makes Damien different from other schools and what unites us. What makes us different is the brotherhood we have here is too strong for anyone to break, and you can try but you will fail because we got everyone’s back at our school and no one can break our bond. One reason why Damien is different from any other school, is our brotherhood that we have. On our football team, we have a bond that no one can take away because we won two back to back championships in the ILH D2. We have created something that no one has ever thought we could do and we are making history for Damien. Everyone on the team got each other’s back and if one person falls, we all help them up and keep fighting. The brotherhood unites us during school and on the field, and nothing can stop us. …show more content…
Every game we have in every sport, there is always a huge crowd of Damien students cheering the team on. Other schools may think they’re better than us, but we got the bigger heart and that’s what unites us as a school. We will always be different from other schools because we are die hard school fans and we bleed mauve and gold. In conclusion, Damien is filled with mixed fruits, and that’s what makes us unique and different from other schools. What unites us is our school pride, our brotherhood that will not be broken, and that we bleed mauve and gold. People say “ cut me open and ill bleed out mauve and gold” that’s how much of a die hard fan we are for our school and that’s what unites us as

    Millard High School, like most high schools, has an extremely strong rivalry with its neighboring school, the Delta Rabbits. Maybe it is because of close proximity or maybe it is a fight for which team is the best in the county, but since the two schools started playing each other in 1926, tensions have always ran high in every aspect of competition. At any sporting event between the two schools, one can expect to see a gym, stadium, or field packed with the opposing colors of red vs blue. It is not just the players that make it such a strong competition. Fillmore is a town where you get those teachers who taught your mom, your dad, your grandpa, and all of your siblings. It is a generational fight for superiority that has been engrained in the kids. It is not uncommon to see grandparents, in yelling matches after games.…

    In the 2001 sport documentary "Go Tigers!", Massillon Tiger high school, located in a small town, that bases its identity off the game of football shows the inner working of what it takes for football players to be apart of a high competing team. Discussed in the movie trailer the high schools, "breed boys to play football". The students who foresee a future in football and want to pursue one are held back in middle school so that they will be bigger and more equipped for the days they play in high school football. By doing this, the film further proves that schools are valuing wins in the athletics department rather than the academics. Schools such as Massillon high would rather hold back their students grade levels for the benefits of their…

    “At Damien Memorial School, what makes us different, unites us.” Over the years that I’ve been here at Damien I’ve come to realize that the quote above is rather true in ways that other schools haven’t quite experienced. Despite the fact that we’re a pretty small school compared to Punahou, Kamehameha, Iolani, or Sacred Hearts, we’re all different whether it’s our personality or our ethnic backgrounds. These two things help to unite all of us as a community to understand people whose ancestors are from different parts of the world and how it has shaped someone and their life. If it weren’t for the diversity amongst the students and teachers at Damien, it would be boring because everyone would be the same. Nevertheless, diversity allows us to…

    Their leader Shaka had planted all his ideas and teachings into the Zulu people and because of him, they had this fearless persona about them to. All they were known for was wreaking havoc and growing their already growing empires with trained a killer, which was going to be a problem. I resented the British Laws that was passed to abolish slavery. If they never passed these laws things would have never changed and this would have never stroked their already growing egos. These laws caused us Boers to revolt and try to escape British rule. This was one of the key opponents that lead us into battle with the Zulu people. These ignorant, blood-thirsty, man slaying, people are dangerous. They start countless wars and make a lot of enemies which would hurt them because they were creating countless enemies. The only thing that they know how to do is how to kill and to start war amongst themselves, when we were trying to compromise with them. We was only trying to teach these barbaric people some of our ways and to civilize them, trying to help the blacks of the South Africa. All the “Great” King of The Zulu Land had to do was disband his military and recognize Britain’s authority, or face invasion. As usual they chose what they knew how to do best, which was how to start war. The same British people that passed the slave abolishing law for these people they were now going into war with them. So not only did they have wars with Boers they also had war with the British now to, how ironic. Even though I despise these people they were very courageous. It’s almost funny how the Zulu’s thought they could defeat us with their sticks. They knew that they could not have stopped us with their assegai which was basically a spear, while we…

    Often times you see athletes performing dominating blocks, making big hits, or making acrobatic catches. However, athletes have much more to offer off their respective playing surfaces that goes unseen. Here at Henderson State University athletes are supposed to epitomize what a college student in Arkadelphia should be. We’re depended upon to be campus leaders to our peers and set examples verbally as well as through our actions. Sometimes we’re seen as intimidating individuals do to our outer appearance but we’re empathetic to others just as others. Our athletic program is set on allowing our athletes to give back to our community and school through participation in various events that occur throughout the calendar year. By providing opportunities for student-athletes to serve, these young men and women make meaningful contributions to society. Teams as well as individual student-athletes are involved in numerous charity and community organizations, schools and hospitals. Some student-athletes have also created, initiated and implemented service projects/activities. One specific event, Reddie to Serve, allows us just this amble opportunity to show our gratitude and appreciation back to the citizens of…

    Once you go to a basketball game, you will most defiantly have school pride. It’s one thing to go out and support your team just because it’s just that, you're team. It’s completely different when your school basketball team is really good, it is very exciting to watch the games, to say the least. A basketball game was the first Polk State function I had attended. Even though I knew not a single person in the stands I kept finding myself on my feet cheering on the team and booing the referees for bogus calls, I had school pride. I sat down in silence for a moment because I figured everyone in the stands was just starring at me and that the game had come to a screeching halt, the players and all. But I look around me and I am surrounded by cheering students, parents and teachers. Thats when I truly realized how much school pride there is a Polk State.…

    As a member of nearly two years with Seminole, I have been able to experience an atmosphere of genuine love and acceptance that I now hope to further encourage and foster. This will be my sixth year as a part of the marching arts, during which I have had the privilege of playing and marching for two different ensembles, as well as maintaining leadership roles in both (leading two front ensembles and being relied on heavily at my place of prior attendance). With all the time I have dedicated to learning and plying my craft, I now seek to instill in others that same sense of wonder, amazement, and motivation that…

    In just four exceptionally brief years, our school’s “beloved” marching band has been taught by several instructors whom all led us through the competitions, but only one has ever managed to bring the band to championships and obtain first in state. His name is Dan Adams. It was only his first year as head instructor and yet he was the toughest out of all of them. Never in my life have I been pushed so hard and inspired so deeply to practice harder in music and in marching. Dan possessed the experience required to get our band back in shape and he had the trophies to prove it. I admire Dan because he knew exactly how to inspire the band and me in order to unlock our full potential.…
