Volunteer<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 I’ve volunteered in many different places around the country. These past couple of years I’ve traveled to Philadelphia and North Carolina where I met up with students my age across the country and volunteered our time to help the homeless, children, and addicts. I thoroughly enjoyed helping the children we met in Philadelphia. Here, we volunteered as camp counselors<\/a> to kids who can’t enjoy their summer (for whatever means necessary).  We swam, played games, and sang songs together. I’ve always enjoyed spending time with children and hope to enter a future career regarding the subject. Over the summer I volunteered as a Swim Instructor teaching kids how to swim. By combining my love for swimming and children, I can easily say that I’ve volunteered for over three years in this program. <\/p>\n

Leadership<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 The Youth Leadership Institute<\/a> program was a program featuring Corning Community College where I spent a week with kids from around the district perfecting our leadership skills. It taught me valuable competence in the field of teamwork and decision making. Throughout the week, my group and I were given a school issued subject and were to present it to about twenty-five different adults in the district. I was chosen out of my grade to participate in this summer group project and highly recommend to anyone willing to learn about skills necessary for their future.  <\/p>\n

Quality Work<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Below is a short extended response written by myself in my 10th grade honors English class which I received a 100 on. Having a love for writing and creativity, I thoroughly enjoyed this assignment. This response was to be added onto a short story we read about in class. <\/p>\n

Reflection<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This assignment taught me the endless paths  the story could take. While listening to each alternative endings for the short story by my classmates, I realized the importance of each individual’s unique mind\/creativity. Anyone’s life story can be changed to end however they please. <\/p>\n
