On the last day of the camp, when the badges were completed, my scoutmaster
Scout follows Jems footsteps and gets much of her knowledge from him. Scouts definition of bravery changes as her age grows ,she gains a lot of experience of the world she lives in .Scout and Jem tolerated lots of uncalled for racial slurs and insults by people in the community . But Atticus teaches Scout what he was taught,doing the right thing doesn't always mean going along with everyone else. . And by the end of the story, Scout can put herself in Boo Radley's shoes, the person she's feared most during the story .Scout learns to look at situations from a different perspective , “you never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view … until you climb into his skin and walk around in it “.
The school I attended was a PreK-8 school in Neenah, Wisconsin, meaning I knew most of the people there already. One of my biggest worries was about homework. People had said the classes in Middle School would be much harder and I would take home many more assignments, but I found the change easy to adapt to. Eventually, I began to understand all the differences I would discover between Middle School and Elementary School. They lead to major changes with friends, classes, and a new
Growing up in a lower-middle class home, I have learned to be modest and frugal. I have also learned that nothing comes free and that everything must be earned through determination and hard work. So when I joined the Cub Scouts at age 7, I was determined to excel and achieve the highest rank in scouting, Eagle Scout. Since then, I have been intent on changing things for the better in everything I participated in. Ergo, having a lifetime goal to give back to the Earth, whether it be directly by studying chemistry to help the Earth or indirectly by donating some of my time and money back into the science field to help fund future developments of technology, seems best for the world.
Totem poles are wooden poles in which symbolic figures have been painted or carved into them. The symbols on totem poles can have an abundance of various meanings; the symbols on the totem pole I have created is a visual representation of events and parts of my life that had and have substantially impacted me. My first symbol, a baby deer, represents entering sixth grade. Transitioning from a fairly small school to a larger one and having more than one teacher and class was a drastic change for me.
Throughout school, kids have asked me to escort them to their classes, sit with them at lunch, and generally stick up for them when they were in a tough spot. In high school, I volunteer to run passes for the Dean so I learn about who is having a tough time and I seek them out if I can, and encourage them. As a hockey camp counselor, teaching hockey skills is important, but I am also aware of the campers’ social and emotional development.
Throughout my whole experience at Centennial, I have always wanted to join the National Junior Honor’s Society, so I feel very honored to have this opportunity to apply. Last semester, I was part of our school’s Student Council. Being in that group allowed me to see how important leadership is in our daily lives, in and outside of school. I also learned a whole lot about service, considering we had to complete one hour every week. All of these things are important, but the thing that I thought spoke to me personally was this year’s theme.
Through this course I’ve learned skills of how to lead and work as a unit with others. Also through moving through the ranks and this past year being the Alpha Company commander with the rank of Cadet Captain I learned how to take responsibility of the actions and deeds of my unit and myself. It also helped me to see that being on the top of the food chain with many below you at your command isn’t all fun and games it entails things like knowing if your company’s data is all squared away and if everyone is up to date, if they all have uniforms and if not when will they get them, and if they have them are they wearing them correctly, who's going to promotion board are they ready is their uniform squared away and things like
You have to spend time learning and being molded by your parents until you are old enough to decide for yourself. Being the oldest child of three isn't easy. You technically are another granny in the house lol. Yea its a load of work you have you teach your younger sibling what's right and what wrong, you have you be a role model for them and teach them the guidelines to life because they sometimes they tend to trust you more than parents and tell you everything. Today i am going to be talking about 20 different objects that i've placed into 4 different categories that represent me.

In Boy Scouts I served as a patrol leader for a group of about ten boys, leading them on camping and hiking trips. I also held the position of Assistant
Displaying Leadership In the following paragraphs I will be talking about the time I displayed a great state of leadership and gave a service to other people. This instance happened on April 17th 2017 when I was asked to be a squad leader for our J.R.O.T.C battalion at the principles review march. This was a surprise for me being only a one year cadet, the following is my experience.
In my junior year of high school, I led the planning, design, and construction of a boardwalk trail over community wetlands. Of the numerous collaborative efforts Scouting has afforded me, this Eagle Scout Service Project was the most complex and gratifying. In addition to construction management, I learned three things from collaborating with the individuals involved: each person brings a particular approach to problem-solving, each person brings strength of expertise in different areas, and each person may bring a different view of the world that might restrict using “apparent” direct solutions to problems. One situation where I learned to be adaptable and draw on the strengths of others ideas was when building the components of the boardwalk.
The attempt to assimilate the American Indians and the pack from St. Lucy’s into the European-American culture resulted in physical labor. All of the students worked, even though some were around six years old. This is an example of physical labor because they made some of their youngest students work and go to school whether it was healthy or not. There was manual labor, enforced uniformity, and military regimentation. physical labor is being applied in this example because they are being forced to do something most of the Indians wouldn’t choose to do by themselves.
Before 10th grade, I had an insufficiently rigorous course load to yield a competitive GPA. After taking the most rigorous classes for a year and boosting my GPA, I have decided to help my classmates tackle the competition at my school by helping them organize their schedules and classes for future academic years. I have reached out to these classmates through class projects and tutoring sessions. So far, I have helped about five teenagers become competitive. I have also frequently volunteered at a local food pantry.
