Going To Adelanto High School
When deciding on a new school you have to look at every aspect of it. What benefits would I get from going there? Is this school right for me? These are all questions you need to ask yourself before, you make your final decision. In this case, the school that I will be writing about is Adelanto high school. From going to Adelanto what effects will it have in the long run when applying for a college? Well, for one Adelanto has more Academics then excelsior because, at excelsior they don't have any sports, not many electives, or even clubs. So going to Adelanto and getting into more school activities and sports I will have a better chance to get a scholarship or even get accepted in to the colleges that I want to go to because that's something colleges will look at when I turn in my college …show more content…
You have to be realistic about it and not only think about the good of it but also what's the downfall that could possibly happen. One of the downsides is that it will be a bigger school with more people. With more people can come with more drama or even you could fall in to the wrong crowd. There would be a chance of getting in to trouble such as fights or even drugs. If you stay focus and keep your eye on the goal you most likely won't, it's just possibility of what could happen. It's a risk you just have to take and trust in yourself that you won't fall behind. Another downside would be leaving everyone you know and starting over. You would be leaving all your friends and having to go through the " new kid phase" where you are alone and don't know anyone. You'd have to reintroduce yourself again and try to make friends. At Adelanto you will have longer days from 8:10 - 2:52 unlike at excelsior where it's only 8:30 to 12:30 depending on your classes sometimes you will have shorter days. It's something you'll have to get use to but nothing 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…

    Going Back to Randolph-Macon being that it is a small college it has its advantages. One major advantage that it has is small classes. Having small classes give teachers time to meet one on one with you. Also teachers go more into depth on subjects and always change in class. There are less than 20 people in each of your classes. The academics are nationally known, which is a huge plus. You defiantly get a good degree by going there. The academics part is a major reason why I am applying to this school so I can expand my knowledge with a good degree and get a job after I am done with…

    The tank tops worn by students at Upper Perkiomen High School should not completely eliminated without spoken reasoning. Listed as the seventh rule in the student handbook, it is stated, “Tank tops, tube tops, halter tops, muscle shirts, and garments with spaghetti straps are not permitted in school” (52). This rule states that students may not wear any top that does not cover their shoulders. My thought process, and many other students, believe this rule is absurd and has no true meaning. Students have never been clarified on why this rule is in place, although we are expected to follow it. Is it because the administrators think possible bra straps are provocative? Is it just plainly because they think shoulders are distracting? Students…

    Everything that a person encounters, either physically or just by knowledge, shapes how that person behaves and respond to everyday situations. With that in mind, I can better understand myself and the people around me. These differences are what brings fresh and new interactions that colleges thrive on. Ranging from the schools I attended, the way I was raised, and even the neighborhood outside my doorstep brings different experiences for me. With these factors, I have no doubt that I would contribute to something beautiful to The Ohio State University.…

    This school has a very friendly environment, and that is rare seeing how sizable the school is and the variety of people that there are. Texas A&M is the fifth biggest school in the country, and from multiple sources it has been said to have a huge sense of togetherness. Another reason to go here is that it is very well known and I would take great pride in being an Aggie. It also is less expensive than a lot of colleges in Texas.…

    Change can be difficult part of a person’s life, oftentimes quite harrowing. Some may find change to be a good thing. I, on the other hand, find it to be more than former. This great change in my life was when my family was forced to move to a new city when I was fourteen. Not only, was I facing a great change, but it would be a change that would affect me for the rest of my life. When I found out that we were moving, I was frightened. I was going to lose all of my friends. I was going to have to start over. That was scary. Being the new kid in school is awful and upsetting, and I was not looking forward to that at all. Already being a shy person who has trouble connecting with new people, being forced to start at a new school was absolutely terrifying.…
