I was so happy that I didn’t have to worry about the stress of this topic anymore. My parents were so proud that about how determined I was. Now I realize that it wasn’t until I completed the Geometry class in my junior year that I passed the regents in June of 2011. I believe this is because Geometry was the necessary class to take before Algebra II Trigonometry but the curriculum in my school district wasn’t set up that way, causing many students to fail. Many students who failed were “A Students” and never failed a test before this.
What made this school stand out from other schools was that not only do you have the regular elementary school naptimes and classes, but your parents get to assign you a particular language to be in. Unfortunately, I moved and was pulled out of the school after finishing my 3rd grade year. In the 4th and 5th grade I started at Taylor Schools and went to McDowell Elementary School and once again I moved to where I am currently, Southgate. I have lived in Southgate ever since then. In the 6th grade, I was starting middle school and this was where I truly discovered my love for music.
In that morning’s reading Jesus spoke about forgiveness with his words to his disciple Peter. Matthew writes, “Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?’ Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times’”(Matthew 18:21-22). For the first time, in all my years of education, I absorbed the reading and applied it to my life. Ever since I was in kindergarten, the words that were on the page that I was either reading or writing did not mean anything but a good grade.
The book Phoenix Rising by Karen Hesse is one of the best books I have read in school. When I began reading it I did not understand the title, but as I read more I began to understand. Nyle is a young who cannot accept losses. Except when the accident in Cookshire took place she had to learn how to let go. Nyle’s Grandma allowed two evacuees, a mother and her very sick son, to settle in her house until the boy got better.
My ninth grade was pretty cool until the last week of school I let my mouth get the best of me and said some things that I really should’ve not said and because I did I earned the next semester at the alternative school. When school started back I was very sad because I had to go to the “bad” school with all the “bad” kids and I was very nervous. Once I got there it was pretty cool and I really enjoyed it because the classes were smaller and you got more one on one help. My grades went up and my mom decided that I should spend the rest of the year there, which really messed me up because they did not offer any elective classes only the basics . My eleventh grade year was also a disaster because of the struggle of passing my biology state test and I was really distracted and just wanted to go back to the alternative school but my mom and the principle would not send me back.
Andrew Carrillo Period 2 Comp/lit II H Mrs. Hodgson The teacher I chose to write about is my sixth grade teacher, Mrs. Hodgson. She taught me at my elementary school, West Covina Christian. I chose Mrs. Hodgson because she treated me with respect, motivated me and gave my class extra recess. Mrs. Hodgson always treated me with respect. It is the most I have ever been respected by any teacher.

It was only my second year of teaching in the school district and I was a probation teacher. I could be fired easily for any reasonable explanation. This instance might not get me fired but the principal might not be on my good side and look for anything to fire me. In my first years of teaching, any extra money would help me in paying my bills and student loans. I was doing extra work being an advisor for this club and not receiving compensation for it.
My UCOR 101 teacher scrutinized the first paper that I wrote and he could tell it was written the night before and even referred to it as a high school paper. My first attempt at a college paper resulted in a bad grade and I knew changes had to be made for my second paper.
Writing this poem allowed me to look back into those past experiences and let go. I can honestly say that until writing this paper, I was allowing my past experiences hold me emotionally hostage. When I graduated from Highline Community College and decided to attend The Evergreen State College, little did I realize how impactful this college would be; affecting my desire to express my thoughts and views about the world. The Evergreen State College opened the door to writing; a door that had been closed for a very long time. Although I hadn’t yet become comfortable writing about my past during the first few quarters of school, I enjoyed writing for academic growth.
