Welcome back to campus for a great year. Hope you were able to take some time off and get prepared for an outstanding semester. Each month the SAIL organization has put together a series of cultural films that will be shown on campus. The students will be made aware of the movies, but wanted to make you aware as well. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact myself or Russ Mast, the Assistant Vice President for Student Engagement.

  • National Honor Society Speech

    913 Words  | 2 Pages

    Growing up my parents always taught my sister and I that we should always be grateful for what we had. Take care of all our toys and expensive things that they brought us. They taught us that you have to work hard for what you want and nothing is handed to you. Even though me and my sister always got what wanted we also knew that we worked for it and that made getting it even better. I believe my parents raised me pretty good. I always respected them and knew my limits, me and my sister had chores we had to do and if they weren't done by the end of the week we would have a consequence. This taught us responsibility and that in the real world if you don't do your job you would be fired or there would be a consequence you would have to pay. Lately I have noticed that a lot of kids in today's society are very ungrateful. They feel entitled and believe that they shouldn't have to work for anything. They think things should just be handed to them without any questions asked. I think I have a way to stop this rising trait in today's youth.

  • Graduation Speech

    1204 Words  | 3 Pages

    Good evening. Some of you out there may not realize this but those of you who attended Suntime Middle School have been with this guy for the last seven years. I would like to ask you all, not just Suntime Middle School grads and who all else, to join me in thanking Mr. Weather for his patience and dedication to the success of our education over the years. We are the Class of 2000. The first graduating class of the new millennium. The past four years have been pretty wild. We started out as a bunch of rats in a small cage, but as time went by we learned and matured and became big rats in a new small cage, but in any case, the cage door is now opening; the handlers turning us wild things loose. As we leave "Where the Wild Things Are," home to some of the best cat fights, fist fights and food fights this side of the Cascades, I have a little surprise for all of you sitting in front of me here tonight in your caps and gowns … we ain’t seen nothing yet!

  • Texas Tech: My Contribution To The University

    139 Words  | 1 Pages

    One major contribution I make to Texas Tech is through my work with community service. Every Texas Tech student contributes to the university though his or her actions everyday, both on campus and off campus. I choose to contribute through my actions off campus by constantly working to serve the Lubbock community in anyway possible. Working to better impact the lives of under privileged Lubbock children, helping serve at Lubbock soup kitchens, and corresponding with national community service organizations helps me to best represent my school and my values. Every time I allot an hour or two of my time to plan or attend a community service event, the school’s name is looked upon in a positive light for shaping students who will not only

    Once there was a girl who is no different than you that was struggling with something inside her. This evil force is called depression.

At school one day all of this changed, because of her angel Mrs. Ogle. That girl was me.

    We’ve all found ourselves tied up in one way or another: too much schoolwork, too many activities, friends demanding our time. Well, no matter how you’ve found yourself tied up, we’ve all found ourselves tied to one mountain, some for as many as 13 years. Though confined, we all have managed to wiggle around in our bonds to the hill and create other long-lasting ties.

    Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Sitting in the backseat of the car, I used to bombard my family with these questions. On our summer road trips I was so anxious for the destination that I failed to appreciate the journey. However, as time passed and I grew older, I realized that it was the journey that was important and not the destination.

  • Graduation Speech : A Future Teacher

    728 Words  | 2 Pages

    As a future teacher I want to be as fair as possible for my future students, despite their ethnicity, gender, or economic statues. I grew up in an area where the majority of the people where Hispanic, most of the students in school where Hispanic, the second largest ethnicity where African Americans, but Hispanic still dominate. Growing up in this rural area, you can see how discriminating it can be for things, when it came to academic opportunities for students. My high school was one of the largest high schools for the HISD, but it was known for it bad reputation. Before attending Sam Houston Math Science Technology Center (MSTC). It was just known as just Sam Houston, the high school who had multiple fights every week, police officers everywhere, and having lock downs almost every other week. The school had to be closed down, that when it names change to Sam Houston MSTC, and was reopen the nigh grade was separated from the upper grades, and made nine grade center in the outside buildings while the upper grades stayed in the original building. After rebuilding the school and renam...

  • Graduation Speech : A Mentorship Program

    776 Words  | 2 Pages

    As exciting and useful the college mentorship programs are to the students that need them to gain the proper stepping stones to success. There are unfortunately many colleges that do not have a mentorship program let alone a proper mentorship program in their college. Especially at the University of Southern Mississippi that seems to be lacking a mentorship program for their students. Until you are forced to perform research to discover that there supposedly a mentorship, but it goes under the name academic coaching an sounds far from something that could truly be effective for students that really need a sounds support system. Especially, students that come from far away or grew up in a tough environment where they lacked a proper role model or someone to support them on their higher education journey.

  • Graduation Speech: Regrets

    Let me begin by saying that I am very honored to be addressing the County High School Class of 2012 as students of this institution for the last time. We've spent these last four years creating some serious memories: four years of chieftain power, leaking roofs, questionable Homecoming skits, and musical principals. Four years of good teachers, bad teachers, new teachers, old teachers. Four years of youth, music, growing up and breaking free. Four rubber chickens, four yearbooks, four ASB presidents and four chubby bunnies.
