This shows i am not only a quality producer, but also technologically literate. Through out the keystone project I also assisted many other students in completing their projects, showing i am a community contributor and effective collaborator.

Social


Goal

My social goal for Junior year is to continue to view possible careers after High School, and figure out where I want to go in life. To achieve this, I will:

  • Continue to participate in Cadet Programs
  • Speak with parents and elders about career fields they have experience in
  • Continue to research possible career choices and facts about those areas.

Evidence #1

FCRC Army post 124: I joined the Army Explorer Post 124 so I can test out Army life and see if it is something I wish to pursue as a career. This program is a great trial for that with live military environments, Army combat training, field training exercises, medical training, and general drill and ceromonies classes. This program has helped me to decided what career i wish to pursue outside of High School.

Evidence #2

Los Angeles Fire Department: The LAFD Cadet program has also helped me examine what kind of career I want to pursue after I graduate High School. Not only has this program given me insight into how the fire department operates, but I have been able to help my community and ride along with the fire fighters on the engine and ambulances going to calls and acting in a fire-fighter position. This is how I have become a strong community contributor.
