Student Success Story : part 6
Andrea Packer anticipates graduating wit a B.A. in education
from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the Master of Art in
Teaching Program from Salem College, also offered on the Davidson campus.
Packer spends her day on the davison campus working 29 hurs 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 can be, but 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 feeling”.
If students work hard during high school, complete all
assighments on time, and demonstrate a bright, positive attitude toward school,
learning and other people, then they could be highly successful as a high
school student and qualify for academic scholarships also. All they need they
need to do is put in the time, study time. All the hard work and effort during
high school will definitely pay off. They will be rewarded for their hard work.
But if they just mess around during their high school years 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 in yourself. Give yourself
opportunities of a lifetime by succeeding in high school on a super high note :
then you can write your own student success story.
