Lessons of my school years

During my childhood my grandmother accentuate the importance of education. She would imagine education can tug you around the world, unless only through hard work and dedication. She neglected to mention the add of peer pressure, the cliques formed throughout tutor and sarcastic teachers whom we are at altogether times to respect, even If they are not respecting us. I started school In wampum, IL, where I was amongst 25-30 Pre-K children. Eager my low gear day to show my teacher I knew my Abss and asss.I was taught my first lesson bout school, speak when spoken to or c eithered upon. zero point crushes a rear old worse than a teacher not inte ride outed in what youve so proudly learned. I felt as though my learning werent important, as if I was Just there to take up space, I was another face amongst the crowd. I took this lesson and held on to it for the rest of my schooling until I learned otherwise. I never answered another enquiry during group participation nor raised m y hand to answer. By the time I was In 5th grade all I learned from Chicago public schools was a myth.Now In a rural community and a predominately African American school. I could not blend In with the shot as my teacher Mrs.. Gates bombarded me one day with question after question, indeed math problem after math problem, until she came to the conclusion that I In fact knew my studies. I Just refused to be embarrassed by another uninterested teacher. She would then from that day, until the end of the school year, ask me first any question from all of the eight subjects we were being taught. I then understood the reality this teacher does care.She cared enough to see that somewhere along my schooling I had become a mute by default. By the time I had made it to eight grade I knew I was in for a ride. Mrs.. S Hardy, a teacher whom would seem to mother knowledge into you. Mrs.. Hardy never took I dont know for an answer or I cant. She empowered each and every one of her students with the power to learn. Explaining that your mellow school years define you as the person youll become. Yes, there forget be clubs, sports teams, and organizations you will Join, but, education Is still our key to the world.She taught me that a lifter only goes as far as graduation and not to be a follower along the path but to make my experience path through life. To always be an independent thinker, know what I want out of life not what others want for me. Then all my elementary school encouragement was over upon entering SST. Anne Community last in August of 1997. When people start exalted school theyre normally so excited. They cant wait to experience everything that comes with being in high school, I mean who wouldnt? Everyone labels that high school is the best four years of your life.I cant say they were my best years but I can say they were my to the highest degree educational years, of course I wouldnt say that they werent fun because they were. When I say educational, I mean Eve learned so much nigh myself and so much about life. I learned what the words family, love, betrayal, honor and life meant. All these events changed me, and Im glad they happened because I wouldnt have learned all these lessons. My personality hasnt changed Im still a carefree girl, Just with a piddling more wisdom and a lot more strength.I first entered high school under the impression that this would Mrs.. Hardy, they would not leave me alone. I was amongst sophomores, Juniors, and seniors, a mere freshman, what did I know. I was not going to be up to(p) to blend in with the back ground but was an unwilling participant in the daily class activities. Mr.. Hubert, one of the most respected teachers in the school, sounded a lot like the guy from the clear eyes commercials. He explained to us that the upperclassmen were the from lack of studying or simply how he be sick it were chosen dummies who liked freshmen classes.
