Why I Should Go on to the 11th Grade

I should go on to the 11th grade for many reasons:
I am very much committed to my education. You can see through my work and projects that I always give my 100% in these things because I want to learn and I want to get better at refining my work. I have a very high standard of work for myself, and that is because I want to do well, learn the most knowledge I can, and get the most I can out of  my education. For example: Visit my Genocide Project on the Humanities Projects Page.

Also, I have perseverance, which is a very good trait for a student to have, what with difficult homework assignments, projects, and writing lengthly, detailed essays. An example of my perseverance is my World War I Propaganda Poster (found on my Humanities Projects Page). Somehow, it had been saved wrong 3 times, so that I had to redo the poster 3 times. It was very annoying, and I was very stressed out about it, but I finally got it done and was proud of it's outcome for having been redone 3 times.

Lastly, I just really enjoy school, which is probably the reason of why I have perseverance and why I am committed to my education. Because it I really didn't like school and saw no point in it, why would I try? I try because I like to learn new things, I enjoy challenges, and I like to test myself to see the best that I can do. School has almost always been a positive place for me to be and a place that I've liked to come to. Yay, school!

An Example of How I Have Advocated for Myself

Hi Carly,

Absolutely!  The best thing would be for you to get me a copy tomorrow morning (or email it to me tonight).  I'll look over it and give you feedback, and get it back to you by the end of tomorrow, then you can get me the revised version on Tuesday.  Sound good?

Hi Lori,
I was wondering if we could sometime go over my Dulce et Decorum est Seminar Reflection so that I could make it better. (During lunch? After school? Whenever.) I am trying really hard to make a good solid essay, and I would be appreciative of your help.
Thank you,
            Carly
P.S. If you think that a seminar reflection isn't the best way to get better at writing essays and such, just let me know, and I will ask you for some other assignment. Thanks!
