AVID 12th
Hi, my name is Keyona Vandermark I am a freshman
at Northwood high school .this essay will explain who
I am, my goals, how I will achieve them, what I would
like to be known for, my achievements, and the
activities i am involved with. I will tell you pretty much
my life plan, and how I will get there.
• I believe you can never say who someone is, you kind of just form who you are
throughout your entire life span, I do have some strong characteristics that form a
little bit of who I am. One thing that makes me the person I am is I am a person who
always wants to help others, and I feel so much for other people, I care about
everyone. Another thing that makes me the person I am is I am very courageous, I will
push through anything even if it is breaking my limits. I am a really honest person and
open minded but i’m loyal, this I will probably help me in my future. Teachers and
professors are going to be looking for someone who is going to be honest and loyal,
meaning they can count on them. Another thing that makes me who I am is i’m a
compassionate person, if I think or believe something, I will keep with it. This will help
me in the future because if I will need to push through when I am struggling with
things in my career. Last thing is I am very competitive this is a good and bad thing.
Being competitive can make it so I can set a strong mind set for the thing I want to do.
I feel like all these things will help me some way or another stay on the right path
and be true to myself.
• I have so many goals i’m planning on accomplishing during my lifetime. One
goal is to make it through the avid program. Another goal is ending school
with who I want to be, keeping and maintaining the same goals. Another goal
is to go to the college I want to go to. Another goal is to do something with my
life to help others, that need help. Another goal is to explore and try new
things, even if they may seem unusually. My last goal is to get a job in the
medical career.
• I will achieve my goals through perseverance, remaining compassionate, and
maintaining good grades.I’m also going to try out new clubs and sports, and
do things that will look good on my appalachians. I am going to look for
things to help me get into the medical field. Last thing is to do all of the above
because if I do all the steps above i’m sure i’ll accomplish my goals.
• Things I would like to be known for are hardworking,I want people to know
that I am willing to put hard work and effort into the things assigned to me.I
would also be wanted to be known as a genuinely nice person,I want people
to want me around. Another thing is I want be known as helpful I want be to
know that I will always be around to help.I want to be known as a pretty
reliable person, meaning can be dependent on me to get my work done or
help them out. Last thing I want to be known for is a kind-hearted person,I
want people to know I always want to do the right thing.
• I haven’t achieved many things, probably because i’m just starting high school
but,I have achieved some. One thing I have achieved is marching band,I have
made it through band camp, and all the days of practice. Another thing I have
achieved is going on mission trips and helping my church out and being an
active member. One of the biggest things is graduating with A honoral from
middle school,I worked really hard for that. Also last year I got most improved
trumpet and that was really big for me because, trumpet was a challenge for
[Link] thing I accomplished is doing all sports in middle school and still
managing to keep my grades up. Last thing I have accomplished is getting into
the avid program,I still have a long ways to go, but it’s a start.
• I am involved in many activities and such. One major thing I am in is marching
band, and it takes a lot of work and dedication. Another thing I have been
attending to get into is hosa , it is a medical club and i’m hoping it’ll help me
in a career I may be interested in. Another thing I am a part of is key club,
key club looks really good on college applications and it helps others. Another
activity I am involved with is the things happening at my church, we go around
helping people and try to make a difference. The last thing would be sports, I
play varieties of sports.
CONCLUSION
• In conclusion, if I keep my perseverance, remain compassionate, and maintain good
grades, and set goals for myself right now, I will have a more likely chance at
meeting them. If I stay dedicated and positive I could make it to my goals. If I stick
to my activities and don’t give it out, it will be a good outcome, If I become over the
years the person I want to be known as I will succeed. In the end, if I follow all my
steps and preparation for life, I will most likely reach all my goals.
