Why Do I Choose Head Start

Even though I believe that my financial situation is accurately represented by the information provided in my FAFSA, paying for college is still an enormous hurtle considering students pay tens of thousands of dollars when earning their degrees. While my parents have planned ahead to be a major financial component in my education, scholarships and other sources of income will play an equally important role to pay for the long education process that lies behind earning a Ph.D. Not only have I been rigorously applying for scholarships over the course of my senior year, but I also have the option to use the skills I 've learned in high school to help finance my education by tutoring German and teaching Clarinet. Despite this, scholarships still play the most important role in financing my education because they offer me the immediate financial support needed to approach my

I knew that I wanted to be a doctor since early high school. Experience in a hospital and clinic setting, both personal and professional, have given me many reasons to pursue medicine. Through these viewpoints, I have gained an understanding of patient hardships like financial and travel issues, the grief associated with loss, and the trust that accompanies putting yourself or a loved one into the hands of physicians. These experiences have built empathy and compassion in me that is necessary in medicine.

Head Start is a federal funded program for children between ages three to five who are underprivileged and come from low income families. A child’s mind when they first go to school is rapidly developing and at school teachers are responsible for guiding their students and helping them develop throughout the school year. If a child gets a bad teacher they can’t develop like they are suppose to. For many low income families public schools are their only option and before Head Start public schools didn’t really have a good preschool option. If a child attended preschool it regularly costed money and poor, low income families couldn’t afford to send their children to a private preschool. If a child didn’t go to preschool they tend to start at a disadvantage to children who did but for poor families there weren’t any other options, until 1965.

Never the less, Head Start is complex and consist of different components. The article should have explained how it helps families and emphasize personal experiences of families with success stories. This program has helped countless children and their families and their experiences will be my motivation to provide Head Start with the reputation it deserves. It is no simple task working with children and parents with high needs, nonetheless, I imagine without our support, these children would have less of a chance of becoming motivated students and life skills. I feel enthusiastic in researching and providing a detailed paper to promote the effectiveness of Head Start and the continued need of the

As a first generation student to attend college from a family of seven, the journey to a higher education has been arduous and overwhelming. My family gives me all the encouragement I need and are very optimistic about pursuing a higher degree. Unlike myself, my parents did not have the opportunity to attend college. My parents were born and raised in a small town in Mexico where the highest level of education they received was fifth grade. I have worked since I was 14 years old to support my parents with bills, and also saving for college and my own vehicle. I have not had any interruptions during my education, because I was able to balance work, babysitting, studying, and attending class on time. Although I managed not having any interruptions

When your little you might know what your destined to be or you might not be focused on it. Than when the day comes to start the schooling you hesitate. Looking up ideas of careers becomes repetitive and annoying. Than you get a job doing whatever you could find until one day you realize that you deserve more and want to challenge yourself. For me it wasn’t easy deciding what to do. When I had my son I hadn’t accomplished all I wanted to with a career or schooling. All I knew is that I wanted to do something I liked, benefited from emotionally, mentally and financially and made me happy with the career path I had taken. Then I found it and here I am!

Paul Tough’s Whatever It Takes focuses on Geoffrey Canada’s program, “The Harlem Children’s Zone”, which aims to take students living in one of the lowest performing districts in New York City and keep them on track for graduation and eventually college. This book shows the various challenges that come with trying to change a system that has built to fail these students. One of the earliest lessons that Canada learns is that in order to make a major difference on these student’s lives, he needs to have a comprehensive approach, which would keep the students on a “conveyor belt” to college. Canada’s approach was different from previous attempts to close the achievement gap because instead of choosing to open his program to all students in New York City and only be able to accept a small percentage of the students that apply, Canada chose to focus on a specific zone in Harlem and commit to fully supporting all of the students that lived in the chosen zone.

Whether male, female, married, single, conservative or liberal all people have a moral compass. The moral compass in Freakonimics does not point in one direction creating a new approach to economics. Authors Steven D. Levitt and Stephan J. Dubner suggest viewpoints on crime, abortion, and education from an economic prospective while ignoring the right or left minded political viewpoints.

In addition to being a full time student I work everyday just to pay for my education. I am financing my education 100% on my own with no financial help. At times it can be a tough task juggling school, studying, working, and volunteering, but I know in the end it will be all worth it. My parents are divorced and neither of them are able to assist me financially. Last year I was a full time PSEO student at Riverland. The main reason I did this was because I knew I wouldn't get be able to get any financial help, and I wanted to further my education. I will be the first one in my family to go to college and get a degree because of this I had to learn how to complete a FAFSA, the different kinds of financial aid, and how to pay for college all

My parents are both hard working immigrants from India who built a life and a family in a new country, in which they could not speak the language. Although I grew up in a low-income family with very few luxuries, my parents placed a large emphasis on pursuing a post-secondary education. Unfortunately, my parents did not have the funds necessary to pay for my entire post-secondary education. In order to put myself through college I have relied on scholarships and my own hard work. Last summer, I worked 72 hours a week as a landscaper to earn just enough money to pay for my first year of college.
