After Attending Arts High School
My initial reaction to Arts High School was amazement. To go to a inner city school and see the passion and drive in the students and teachers of the school was amazing. Every teacher that I spoke with had been to many schools, trying to find the right place for them where they could teach. All of them stated that the schools they previously worked in, the students were not interested in learning and the administration did not support them. They said that they found the students at Arts High School to be driven and the administrators to be very supportive. While being in Arts High School, it made me realize once again why I have decided to furfill this career. I want to be able to make a positive effect on peoples lives and influence them to strive for what they really want in life and to never give up. The students I saw and talked to yesterday were Arts to follow there dreams.There was this one girl yesterday who did a performance for us. She was amazing and her performance was passionate, you tell how long and hard she must have worked to perfect it and how much of her heart went into it. I just thought to myself how self furfilling it must be for the teachers to see these kids grow and succeed in life and know that they helped them on that journy. I want to one day feel that same way and to know that I have made a difference in someones life.
