Recommended: A short note on self improvement

On December 16, 1998 a legend, by the name of Logan Coe, was born. It was in the small town of Parkersburg, WV. He was born in to a family of three. He has a mother named Melissa, a father named Mike and brother who goes by Dylan.
The young, clever child began his schooling at Lubeck Elementary. After preschool, he went on to Blennerhassett. In elementary school he decided to try sports. He wasn’t very good at any sports, but once he entered the fourth grade he decided to try out for the school basketball team. He wasn’t the best, but he loved the sport and he gave it his all every single day. Also in the fourth grade, a major life event happened for Logan. He became a big brother to whom he now calls a brat, but was originally referred to
He volunteers at Camden Clark where he does various things that don’t really mean anything to anyone, but he has participated in some great volunteer opportunities. He has had life changing experiences while working with the Wood County Society. Every year, for the past three years, Logan has been a counselor at Camp Echo. This camp can, and will, change your life. There’s not a greater feeling than being at Camp Echo.
Logan is making big plans for his future. He wants to go in to the medical field, but isn’t sure what part of the field. If he does go with his plan to get in to medicine, then he will plan to go to Shepherd University in West Virginia. He loves the idea of going to West Virginia University, but he doesn’t think his academic career will last very long in Morgantown.
All Logan wants to be is successful in life. He wants to be able to go back and thank every teacher he has ever had and thank them for whatever knowledge they were able to pass on to him, except his Journalism class he took in eleventh grade. He didn’t learn a single thing in that class. Once he takes a step back and looks at his life, so far, he really thinks it’s going alright. He has made some pretty stupid choices, but no one is perfect. I wish this Logan Coe kid the best of luck after his senior year, and I hope whatever he does is

    797 Words  | 2 Pages

    Cedric is an unusual student to walk the halls of Ballou High. Unlike most of his peers, he actually wants to make something of himself; he does his homework, he studies and he works on extra credit projects. The majority of the kids at Ballou barely come to class, much less make any attempt at learning. Since this is the overall attitude of the school, Cedric must exercise social mobility and do whatever he can to better himself as an individual. He is not necessarily competing against the students at Ballou (because he by far surpasses them), but he is in competition with all the other students from better schools throughout the area. During the summer that Cedric spends at MIT, he is truly awakened to the fact that he was extremely far behind the other students from urban areas. The director of the program expresses his frustration with the MIT program- "When he first arrived... He had grand plans to find poor black and Hispanic kids from urban America-... He saw that he had been drea...
