Part 6

Andrea packer anticipates graduating with a B.A.in education from Catawba in December 2011and then enrolling in the master of the arts in teaching programs from Salem College, also offered on the Davison campus working 29 hours a week as a teaching assistant for instructors in the DCCC early childhood education program.

“Not only did receiving this scholarship make me study harder and be the best I could be, but it also allowed me to graduate in May 2010 with my associate degree totally paid for,” she said. “I couldn’t believe I had my first degree, and I was debt free. What a wonderful blessing!”

 

If students work hard during high school, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate the bright, positive attitude towards school, learning, and other people, then they can be highly successful as a high school student and qualify fro academic schollarship also. all they need to do is put in time, study time. all the hard work and effort during high school will definetely pay off. they will be awarded for their hard work. but if they just mess around during their high school and neglect their studies, use drugs, and,mistreat others, then they can expect to fall short of what could have been their rewards of scholarships and other opportunities, and they will suffer in the short and long term. invest yourself. give yourself opportunities of a lifetime by succeeding in high school on a super high note.
