How to "Up-Level" Your Activities and Awards List in Three Steps for the Upcoming Common App: 1. Use active verbs to explain what you actually did. Rather than: Worked at a clinic doing different things with animals. Try: Organized animal diagnosis notes, provided medical assistance, assisted with health recommendations and sterilized tools for certain procedures. 2. Make sure the verbs are not redundant. Rather than: Instructing, helping, and teaching children tennis . Try: Instructed tennis students in proper technique, while imparting lessons in sportsmanship and integrity. Aim for variety and vary your word usage. 3. Emphasize and quantify tangible, measurable impact. Rather than: Raised money for Special Olympics. Try: Raised $1,000 to provide 10 scholarships for special needs students attending "Special Olympics" in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan. Taking the time to organize your activities and award list can lead to excellent writing essay topics toward your required personal statement.

Chief Executive Officer ► Global Business Executive ♦ Disruptive Technology Champion ♦ Developing High-Performing Teams
**Urgent Support Needed for Students ** As Israel navigates through these tumultuous times, I am reaching out to our community for support. Currently, over 5,000 students are either serving in reserve duty or have been evacuated from their homes, a testament to their bravery and commitment to our nation. These students have put their lives and education on hold to serve our country. Yet, amidst the chaos and uncertainty, their concerns about continuing their education loom. It's a challenging situation that none should face alone. In response, we've initiated the **Student Lifeline Fund**. This fund ensures that these students can continue their education without financial burden. It covers essential costs like tuition and dormitory expenses, providing a semblance of stability in these unstable times. Your donation can make a significant difference. It's not just financial support; it's a message of solidarity and hope. It tells our students that their dedication to our nation's safety is recognized and valued. It ensures they can focus on their mission without worrying about educational setbacks. Let's stand together in supporting these brave young individuals. Your contribution will help maintain their peace of mind, allowing them to concentrate on their crucial roles in these challenging times. We look forward to the day when peace prevails. Until then, let's do our part in supporting those ensuring that future. Thank you. https://lnkd.in/deJYDHgn

The Qualified Education Expense (QEE) Tax Credit program for student scholarship opportunities results in $28 million in reduced state costs and $33.4 million in local cost savings. 🚨 This positive impact for the state and local taxpayers is further highlighted by a 90% student switcher rate, which is the percentage of students who would be returning to public schools if this program didn't exist. Because of programs like Georgia SSO, Georgia taxpayers have annual estimated savings of $61.4 million! ⭐ The report further indicated that similar “school choice” programs are correlated with positive impacts on student test scores, graduation rates and college attainment, thus providing future potential public benefits of lifetime earnings and achievement. ⭐ Donating to Georgia Student Scholar Organization provides more educational opportunities for your children. At Georgia SSO, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to choose the school that best aligns with their educational needs! 🍎 Visit https://buff.ly/3pv9msT to donate and receive your tax credit! #scholarshipsearch #privateschools #schoolchoice #taxcredit #taxcreditscholarship #taxcredits #taxcreditscholarships #studentscholarship

The Kansas Board of Education is set to deny accreditation to Urban Preparatory Academy, a private K-8 school that accepts tax-credit scholarships through the state. A report indicated that the school failed to provide assessment test scores and other information required for accreditation. When asked about its failure to submit required documents, the academy’s director, Wichita pastor Wade Moore, stated that it was due to the lack of internet access and computers. While Urban Preparatory Academy plans on seeking accreditation from the Association of Christian Schools International, its inability to obtain the required accreditation by the state board may lead to difficulty in receiving corporate donations through Kansas' tax credit program. Kansas statute requires schools granted funds through such programs to receive accreditation either from a national or regional accrediting agency recognized by its state board; however, private schools are not obligated under this statute but can chose whether they want participate or not. One noticeable issue in Moose's defense is that Urban Preparatory Academy did not participate in State’s testing which might raise questions on how well-equipped faculty members are with monitoring progress. Private schools receiving scholarships should be held accountable for delivering quality education as an alternative educational option for parents who prefer it beyond their backyard public school system. How stringent should such accountability be? We invite your views. #Kansasschools #accountabilityinprivateschools #privateschoovscholarships #stateboardmetros

This is the approach I have been advocating for some months. This is a matter for the whole education sector and there are state schools concerned by the lack of of modelling that lies behind the declared policy. We need a collaborative and unified approach. State schools fear the loss of great partnerships with independent schools and the prospect of being swamped when already under resourced Where is this leadership comming from. We should not allow this disruption and threat to choice. #HMC #isa #ISC #Education #Headteachers #MAT #IED #Charity #Partnershipstogether
