Once everyone was in their seats at rehearsal all the tickets that were to be given to the family members were distributed to the graduates. All of the graduates were split up into their academy and lined up by last name. The names were called and the walks were practiced. Once everyone had taken their practice walkthrough, we were seated again and told the do’s and don’ts of graduation night. I then left graduation rehearsal to go get my nails and makeup done.
As I was growing up I would always help anyone out in need. Many times I volunteered with a group of people to do volunteer town clean up. This was a very great experience for me because it required me to work as a team to accomplish something. I knew I was not receiving anything in return, but I did it anyway because it made me feel great for helping to make a place more homelike for everyone. I also volunteered at a food pantry, and this was my all time favorite thing to do, for I would not be receiving anything, but I was helping to give back to people who needed it.
My music teachers were the ones who pushed me out of my comfort zone and broke my shell. It is important for me to become one because through out school they were the ones who have had the biggest impact on me in many different ways. I want to be able to have that same impact on students when I am a music educator. I want to be able to make a big impact on someone who was just like me and see them grow as not just a person, but also as a performer. Being able to be a music educator is not just important for me, but is important for the students
There is still so much for me to learn in the area of event management, interviewing Seth was invaluable. I hope to continue to develop a relationship with him and soak in all of his knowledge and experience in the field. Seth told me that at the end of his career he wants to be able to say that he never cheated or sold out, that he was always in it for the student athletes and coaches, not for just a paycheck. I would like to say some of the same things about my
Many of my character traits have drastically changed overtime. At first, I was lost. I did not know what I wanted to do with my life, nor did I enjoy it. I did not even try to fight for my dreams and hopes. I just followed what others told me without thinking about what I really wanted.
One of the main skills I have learned from band is a great work ethic. I know how important it is to be on time and how to stay at the end of practice to help other people that need it. When there are new kids they are going to be scared and I'm going to be there to help them get comfortable and happy about being in band. I would really enjoy the opportunity of being a mentor to other band members. There was a student here when I started who was our section leader and she took care of me and led me so that I understood the principles of being in marching band.
The Benefits of Required Community Service Community service is talked about amongst everyone. Community service is unpaid community service work that benefits others in a community. All high schools should be required to have a minimum requirement of community service as a graduation requirement because it will help the student’s mental health, allow them to play a role in their community and establish lifelong habits. Community service boosts mental health because contributing to one’s community can show student that anyone can make a difference. All community service helps no matter how little .Many may say that they do not find helping a homeless shelter their ideal saturday activity but once the students realize the impact they have on the less fortunate most will have a feeling of self accomplishment.
Today was for real “Click” the door went as I walked into the hall. I was seeing so many faces, excited for the season to start. As excited as we were, the 6th graders looked nervous. And a 5,6,7,8 Waiting for my mom to get home the to go to dance try-outs, so nervous. I was running all around the house to find my dance shoes.
In my group, I have Lara, Sara, Julia, Emily, Anna, and Francesca. We all basically have the same parts every year, so we see each other every day during classes and rehearsals. As we walked into the theatre, we had no idea what to expect. We were hoping that the size of the theater would be the same as the other theaters we’ve performed in, such as the Meydenbauer in Bellevue, and maybe even cleaner and more spacious, but we were terribly wrong.

My experience at St.Rita has helped shape me because there are so many opportunities to shape myself. The opportunities they offer help shape you because they help you become who you want to be, whether you want to be a singer, athlete, or an actor. This school has helped shape me to become a compassionate person. Although I have became a compassionate person I will miss a lot of things here at St. Rita. What I will miss the most
My experience in Pickering High School cabaret was extremely gratifying. During rehearsals, I made new friends and strengthened the existing relationships I had. Being an actor in this extracurricular taught me the need to manage my time, and helped me improve my memorization and learning skills. It pushed me to continue to excel in my academic classes, while balancing homework and leisure time with rehearsal time. Leading up to show dates, I was sacrificing my lunch hour everyday to improve the show to the best it could be.
As an adolescent I tended to be very discreet and shy at times, especially around girls my age. Overall I was a very awkward child. While attending a coed elementary school at Monroe it was very intimidating. There were girls that were always trying to talk to me and I just wasn’t sure how to react to the situation. I went home several days telling my parents that I needed to move schools.
The concert I attended was the Winter Concert at Cabrillo Middle School in the school cafeteria. They had two directors; Miss Pamela Page directing the Advanced Band, Advanced Orchestra, and Concert Choir and Mr. David Anderson directing the Beginning Band and Beginning Orchestra. The Beginning Band was pretty big and had a lot of people in each group of instruments. You couldn’t see the Beginning Orchestra because they were in the back, but they had enough people that you could hear them.
