My High school Experience
What shapes a person into who they become during high school? Is it the friends they choose to be around? Or is it the way they choose to spend their free time? I personally think it is the programs a student chooses to participate in during their time at school. There is so many different programs that are offered and each can teach you many important things. For me, cheerleading and yearbook seemed like the best pick. My mother has always told me, “The point of high school is to teach its students how to prepare and learn things that will help them in their future lives.” I believe this is exactly what these two programs have helped me to do. Not only to great things in high school but all so do great things in …show more content…

It’s something everyone wishes to have but it’s not always easy to attain. On dictionary.com it says one of the definitions for responsibility is “being reliable or dependable.” Being responsible is very important when you are an adult looking for a job or trying to care for your family’s needs.

I had just transferred over to the Blackfoot school district and didn’t really know anybody, so all I really wanted was to fit in and make new friends. I was really scared to put myself out there because I was scared of what my fellow peers would think of me. But through cheerleading and yearbook I have learned to get out there. When doing cheer it is ones responsibility to stand up in front of the students and lead and help gain school spirit. To do this you must sometimes step out of your comfort zone and do exactly that to your best ability. So this has really helped me to come out of my shell and just be truly me, regardless of what others might think. Also in yearbook you have to really have to put yourself out there and give your input on what you think is best for the book. You never know if your idea could be what everybody has been looking for and what could really make the book pop. This has shown me that in my future I will really have to put myself out there to open up new opportunities for
