I Can and Will Succeed


Opening the acceptence letter to my dream college, I knew my life was going to change forever. Majoring in Secondary Education with a focus in Mathematics, I know I am going to need to work as hard as possible to achieve my dream job. The day I pass my tests to say I am certified to teach, will be the day I can finally say that I have almost accomplished my  dream job. The last step, find a job. The big dream would be to have my own classroom, in the Annex of Lawrence High School, teaching math to kids who were once just like me. I have my family behind me, and my grades. My motivation will get me there no doubt, and I want nothing more than to be standing in the front of the classroom, teaching my knowledge to others. The only thing standing in my way is not knowing if I am going to be able to afford college. I have a gap of $10,000 I need to pay a year, and that will be struggling. Hopefuly my grades stay as high as they are in high school, and I will be able to recieve more scholarships to help me pay for it.
