DATCU Boardroom 225 W. Mulberry Denton www.dentonlulac.com Jennifer Cruz A60q My passion and ability to be involved in the healthcare field has helped me in every aspect of my life.Ever since I can remember my dream is to become a Registered Nurse and I know for a fact it is a dream I will accomplish.Most importantly my personal goals are to obtain a position as a Registered Nurse that will enable me to utilize my strong organizational skills,educational background,and ability to work well with others.These three personal goals have helped me to pursue my career goal to come a step closer to become a Registered Nurse.Both my personal and career goals have helped chosen the necessary studies through my high school years.Since my freshmen year I have taken Health Science Technology Education,which is a four year program that helps you prepare for the medical field.As my fourth year in the program I have been offered the opportunity to be a Certified Nurse Assistant by completing the required skills and a State board exam to complete my certification.This program has also given me my CPR certification,among other skills I have acquired over these four years in the program.Throughout my high school years I have been an active member of the organization called Health Occupants Students of America,which I also currently hold an officer position as secretary.This organization has let me shown my dedication and leadership abilities towards all the service projects we have accomplished as a team.Each year in the organization we have the opportunity to compete against other students in different events and I am proud to say this year I competed in Health Education and placed first place in area.By placing in first I get the privilege to move forward and compete for state against the other finalists.Both my studies and organizations I have taken is what are leading me to my future in the healthcare field.One of my greatest achievements that contributed to all my success is being a youth volunteer for three years at the Presbyterian Hospital of Denton.What I loved most about volunteering at the hospital was getting the hands on experience in all the different medical stations and getting to job shadow the different professions of each i person.I have come to learn how the medical field works and meet so many amazing people along with it. This volunteer work has taught me to have strength and to believe in myself in order to have a successful career. At the Presbyterian Hospital I acquired so many new skills from the staff members and patients. From learning how to give bed baths,practice doing vital signs,and even witness many baby births. One of my favorite places to go to at the hospital was the CATH lab were I had the chance to see many surgeries performed on patient.My motivation toward volunteering has given the honor to be a Prudential Spirit honoree of my community and have been given the President's Volunteer Service Award. It is such a wonderful experience and this has helped me build confidence to continue my goals.From my personal goals,career goals,to my volunteer services it has given me so much experience and initiative to proceed with the path I have chosen. Personal Essay In my pursuit of a higher education,I have set many goals for myself that I truly wish to accomplish. I desire to gain a degree not only to be a better person,but because I live in a country that gives me the freedom to do so. I have been involved in many school programs such as playing soccer, all the while keeping up with my school work. One of my major accomplishments is being accepted into PALS (Peer Assistance Leadership Skills). This is a program were I get the chance to work with my peers, as well as younger children,to serve as a role model and help them through any conflicts or obstacles. I have also attended a"Peers Making Peace"/PAC training to become certified as a peer mediator at my high school. Community involvement plays a major role in my life because it allows me to meet more people and be able to take advantage of all the resources it has to offer. I have also maintained an excellent grade point average that has landed me in the top quarter of my class. The main reason 1 want a degree is to be able to be content with my career. I hope to one day be able to put my knowledge into a career that I will enjoy and be able to be a role model to other Hispanic students aspiring to one day be a better person. Also, this has made me a dedicated person who wishes to strive harder every time I accomplish what I set out to do. As a Hispanic student, I have many obstacles to overcome and many goals to accomplish. Growing up in a middle class family with parents who couldn't even reach a middle school education has taught me a great life lesson. I have learned that with hard work and patience, goals can absolutely be reached. My parents emigrated from Mexico and worked to earn their U.S. citizenship to give me and my other siblings a better life. One of my biggest goals is to show my parents my appreciation for the many sacrifices they have endured to give me a better life. I firmly believe that it is my duty, as first generation to graduate,to continue my education and pursue a professional career. Thank you for your consideration. ,�boq Reynaldo Paz Jr LULAC Essay In my entire life 1 have not had much of anything. My mother works extremely hard to take care of my family but it is awfully difficult for her to make ends meet. I would love to relieve my mother of the stress this puts her though. I am pursuing several college degrees because that will help get me into a well-paying profession. By doing this I will lessen the burden on my mother. My class rank is 114 of 396 and I maintain a three point four grade point average.Although these accomplishments are not the greatest they are very good. And both of these accomplishments assist me on my pursuit of a college degree. I expect to graduate in the top quarter of my class. I am applying for the LULAC scholarship because it will increase my ability to pay for college tuition fees which averages alone between six and seven thousand dollars per year. I plan to major in statistics and to minor in psychology. I am taking an AP statistics class this year in high school. I took a Pre-Calculus class during my junior year in high school and performed very well in this class. I have always performed very well in my math classes and truly enjoy doing math related work. I became interested in psychology at the beginning of my senior year. I took a regular psychology class in the fall semester and did extremely well and am now taking an AP psychology class this semester. Both of these AP classes challenge me and push me to do my best. I plan to achieve not just one but multiple degrees. I believe I can accomplish these goals because I am very passionate about both of these fields of study. Another goal I have is to receive the best possible education available to me. But in order for me to complete my educational goals I am going to need help to pay for college. The LULAC scholarship will aid me in achieving my goals because my parents' income, my personal income, and other types of financial aid will still not be enough to pay for the entire costs of college. My educational goals will help me obtain my professional goals which consist of becoming a clinical psychologist, a counseling psychologist or social psychologist. I do not know which I want to be yet but I do know I want to work with people and help them. I would be willing to do all of these careers for the rest of my life so I know I will eventually decide which career path to choice once I am in college. After I have acquired several degrees it will be a lot easier for me to get a well paying profession.This will help me with my personal goal of helping my mother with her financial difficulties. Elisa Martinez My career goals are graduating from high school, completing four years of college,and major in education. I want to become a successful bilingual teacher. I want to be a bilingual teacher because I know what it is like to be in a place where you can't understand the language. I want to help students learn English to overcome obstacles and take another step towards a successful future. I have taken advantage of every opportunity that involves me gaining more experience for my teaching career; this includes working with children of almost all ages and getting involved as much as I can in every activity that involves me helping others. I've been a teacher at my church for seven years where I began by taking care of the babies for about two and a half years and then moved up to teaching three year old kids. It's been five years since I started teaching three to four year old kids. My junior year,I heard about Ready, Set, Teach,a class that teaches you how to become a successful teacher, so I signed up to take it my senior year and it has been a very rewarding experience for me. I've been given the chance to see what"real"teachers go through interacting with elementary students, and I realize it is hard work, work that I am willing to practice in my profession. I am also enrolled in PALS (Peer Assistance, Leadership, and Skills), a class that has given me the opportunity to help and mentor a middle school student. PALS also offered me the opportunity to complete 15 hours of Peers Making Peace/PAC Training to become a Peer Mediator/Mentor. My mom raised four kids on her own for more than fifteen years, nine of which she has spent in the Ignited Stares of America. My mom and I share the same dream of me attending college. I will be the first generation to attend college and if I am granted this scholarship I will make use of it efficiently since I know that my mom is unable to help financially with the high expense of college tuition. aot>� Throughout my life I have set myself on a rigorous path that will help me to obtain my future goal in the field of journalism. I have always poured over novels; immersing myself in worlds that have been open only to the imagination; getting lost in the words of Mark Twain, Shakespeare, Sue Monk Kidd and Ishmael Beah has been a passion of mine. I have taken it upon myself to sharpen my skills as a writer and have taken enhanced English classes to read all of the classics; to observe all of the different styles of writing and how they have changed throughout time. Taking a creative writing class has made me enjoy writing all the more. As I hear others sharing stories,it makes me want to grab a pen and paper to write down all that comes to mind. I am a current writer of Student Paths paper that is distributed through Texas high schools. As a PAL mentor, spending time with my elementary buddies they have many of their life experiences. It fires me with passionate ideas on which to write. Doing community service activities through Pals, Rotary Interact and with my church group, I have also gotten to know the stories of the lives of people in our town and the events that they suffer through. I am hoping to obtain an internship at a newspaper office through college at UNT. After a certain time has passed and I have earned my masters in journalism and a bachelor's degree in business I hope to obtain a job at a well-established newspaper. I have set goals to further my career after a time by moving to an editor-and-chief position or starting well managed business myself. Mariana Alfaro-Mendoza ,2001 Walt Disney once said,"If you can dream it,you can achieve it." I do believe our dreams push us to achieve better and bigger things, but it is not enough to merely dream. Dreams stay dreams if we don't actively try to do anything to make them come true.I am a firm believer in working hard and doing whatever it takes for you to achieve a dream. For me, my education will be the chief factor in making my dreams come true. It is safe to say I am not afraid to dream big. I hope to one day be one of the top Hispanic TV journalists in this country. I lived in El Salvador for twelve years, so I truly understand what it is like to be bilingual. I believe that being bilingual definitely gives you a better understanding of other cultures,and I hope it will help me in achieving my dream.Today,there are not very many Hispanic female journalists reporting from obscure locations to English-speaking networks. I know that will change one day, I can see it happen,and will not stop until I do. Before any of this can happen, however, I must work hard at school to guarantee my dreams will come true. I long to one day be a part of a world-known organization such as CNN or MSNBC or ABC News. I am committed to educate myself as best as I possibly can to make sure this all happens. In the next four years, I will be working hard to obtain a Bachelor's degree in either communications or politics and I will then go on to enroll in a graduate program to earn a Master's in journalism and make sure I prepare myself to get the career I truly really want. I'm willing to start at the very bottom,but I understand it will be necessary. My hard work will be worth it because my dedication and determination to succeed will be what will help me climb all the way to the very top one day. I will one day report breaking news from around the globe.There are millions of people that are just waiting to be heard, millions of stories just waiting to be told.There will be moments in the years to come that will define and shape my generation.And I want to be there for it all. Alexandra Garcia a DO At the age of fourteen I started working at a non-profit camp as a camp counselor. Those two summers working there opened my eyes to how rewarding and essential helping a community is. I love working with children and being creative and hard working.Those summers have deeply impacted me on what I desire to accomplish with the studies and degrees in college I intend to earn.My goal for college is not only to connect with children one on one,but to expand that and build a foundation that can touch many kids from generation to generation.I want to study children psychology as well as studying nutrition and how the body works with different types of food.I am hoping to do a double major of nutrition or education,as well as journalism.My intention is to use those studies to not only know about the science side,but the physiological side, and learn to communicate that knowledge and passion to the masses.The experiences of being a leader for a whole community and not for oneself has pushed me to aspire for more change,more opportunity,and more communication with the public on how underprivileged children can step away from that and be all they can.I have learned that everyone has to give a little and help another out for the greater good. I can be well- rounded leader who can make a difference for children who can hopefully be inspired like I was,to step up and be a leader.I am inspired to start my own non-profit camp,and I desire to incorporate nutritional values for those children,for the parents,and for the public. I was meant to wander into Camp Putnam four years ago,and come out with a passion. Alexandra Garcia Attached typed essay of no more than one single-spaced page is preferred.

PERSONAL ESSAY Please type or print neatly a statement describing the personal&career goals your studies are leading to. In addition,please describe any community service activities that you have lead or participated in that relate to your future personal and career goals. It is my sincere and heartfelt hope that this essay about my personal information will express my true need for this scholarship. I was raised in a small family in middle class America.Growing up, money was always tight for my parents but they never led on to my brother and I that they were always in financial trouble.Although they were struggling, my parents continued to make numerous sacrifices and gave of themselves in order for my brother and I to receive a private school education because quality education was of the highest importance to them. From kindergarten through eighth grade my brother attended a small private school in south Texas called Calvary Christian School,while my parents lovingly gave of themselves to ensure that my brother and I were given every opportunity possible for success. In doing this, however,they were unable to save any money for my college fund. When I entered high school, I immediately immersed myself in clubs, organizations and my studies. I was determined not to allow my parents sacrifices to be in vain. I am pleased to say that thus far, I have been able to excel in my studies as well as all my extracurricular activities.As 1 hope this essay shows, I possess the drive and determination that is required to fulfill my life-long dream of becoming a surgeon. Not only do I wish to become a surgeon for the betterment of myself, but also wish to be able to care for my parents as they age, providing for them all of their hearts desires as a some small token of my gratitude for their sacrifice. It is my sincere hope that this essay portrays my need for this scholarship and the drive and determination that I possess to succeed.

Signature of Applicant Date 01l09 "Surprise! Congratulations!" We screamed as my father walked through the door.There was confetti all over the floor, balloons on the floor and walls, and a huge cake with a graduation hat on it. He had just graduated from the University of Long Island and obtained his Master's degree in taxation. I remember he would go to class right after work, and study long, hard hours. But now, it had all paid off. He was done,and had accomplished his dream. Little did I know that I would wish to follow in his footsteps a few years down the line. The first years of schooling were extremely easy for me.At my father's job, I always counted money from the registers.So,whenever the time came to learn how to count money in school, I was basically a professional at it. My mother also taught me how to do math at home,so at school I was always at the top of my math classes. I had always known that I wanted a career that would involve my math skills, but I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. During middle school and my freshmen year of high school, I struggled with my career choice. I always put undecided in any test I took, and I took as many career-personality tests as I could find.They always said the same answer:an office-type environment and business. I started looking at business majors,and accounting caught my eye. My entire family is full of accountants,including my father. While picking our classes for our sophomore year,one caught my eye. "Accounting:One year long. Open to upcoming juniors/seniors."This was perfect! I decided to take it to see if I could really enjoy it.And, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I never made anything below an A in that class. Everything just came so naturally to me, and my teacher begged me to compete in our school's accounting team but I had to take care of my little sister on weekends.After taking this class, I realized that this major was for me. The more I thought about it,the more I realized that I wanted to be more like my dad.The idea of taxation fascinated me, and so I then took a two-class seminar during my junior year to work on taxes.After, I became certified to do basic income taxes for college students or low-income families. Once again,the material came to me naturally and I found it quite easy to do. I have set a few goals for myself, but I am certain I can achieve them all. I have applied to all schools that are top ranked for accounting.I hope to get accepted, and after I will pursue to get my bachelor of science(which covers accounting and business).After, I will obtain my Master's in taxation. It will take a lot of time, money, and effort, but I am confident in myself and am sure that I will achieve it all. Samantha Guzman x Date: 3/20/09 y�b07 LULAC SCHOLARSHIP ESSAY I want to major in Biology during my undergraduate career. My long term educational goal is to earn a Professional degree at a University. For my career goal I want to become a doctor. This has been my goal since I was seven years old. I want to become a doctor because I want to help people. In high school I took three years of Health Science Technology Education. In this class I learned how to take vital signs and learned how to perform CPR. I also learned medical terminology and medical directions. I have also taken a year of Anatomy and Physiology. I learned the different parts of the body and how the body works. I want to become a doctor because I enjoy having the medical knowledge and I want to use it in the real world. In college I am going to study hard and pay attention in my classes. Especially in my Biology class and any other class that will help me achieve my goal. I will also have my parents to support me and to push me until I have the initials M.D at the end of my name. I am highly motivated and will make sure that I am doing my work, being a good student, and focusing on my educational pursuits. For my community service I did service projects for my confirmation class at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. I helped decorate a house for the Christmas season. I also went Christmas caroling at the Good Samaritan Nursing Home and helped raise money for food for the homeless. I enjoyed doing these service projects and got to meet a lot of people too. I live with my mom and two younger brothers. As a single parent, my mom will not be able to help me with college expenses so any scholarships that I get will help me further my education and reach my long term career goals. Celina Lizette Hinojosa �OOQ I am currently on the path of becoming a cosmetologist,and I plan to cut hair as a part-time job during college. These two years that I have been studying cosmetics and related services have made me realize how much I love working with people,especially those who are not able to help themselves. In doing so, I looked into the nursing field at Texas Woman's University and became very interested. I recently got accepted to the university and hope that if God is willing the"nursing"idea will work out. With nursing as a career, I will be able to help people with health-related issues,as well as cosmetic, because of my developed knowledge of cosmetology. I, for one,have struggled with my skin in the past,and my cosmetology studies have truly helped me understand it better and how to work with my skin to improve its condition,leading me to thoughts of possibly becoming a dermatologist nurse. I want to help people become healthier,while at the same time building their self-esteem by helping cosmetically. I am very proud of my Hispanic culture and want to make a difference not only as a nurse, but also a bilingual nurse, who are in great demand in today's growing Hispanic society. I feel that being bilingual is a plus because it allows me to reach out and help those that do not understand English well, and/or do not know how to use the great medical resources we have here in America because of the language barrier. Working as a receptionist in a salon has let me do just that in helping clients with language barriers, and making them feel more at ease. In my cosmetology class, every week we have clients come in,the majority elderly,and we provide cosmetic services for them.I absolutely love helping them, especially the elderly,because getting"beautified"truly makes their day,builds their self-esteem, and in some cases helps them medically. Sometimes we are the only people they get to talk to frequently because they don't have family. I love the closeness and love caring for people making them feel like family. Going to college and getting a degree will help not only me, but also my future family. I want my children to have a mother to look up to,my family to live comfortably,and to have a loving,happy, and successful life. I want to become a nurse to truly help those in need, and let the helpless know that they're not alone and that there are, in fact,people who care. LULAC National Scholarship Fund abd? Personal Essay Flor Hernandez My career goal since I was a child has been to be a teacher. When I was a child my mom used to tell my sister and me that she always wanted to be a teacher or a nurse , so that is where I got the idea that I wanted to become a teacher, Years ago I used to play with my brother,mom, and sister that I was the teacher. At that time it was just a game,but now that I have thought things through I know that,this is what I want to do as my future career, a bilingual teacher. I want to teach kids new things that they can learn in a new language to be more successful in life and I want to do the same thing that my teachers in elementary and middle school did for me, teach me to write, speak and write a new language. Now that I am a senior at Guyer High school,time goes so fast that it's almost time for graduation, and I sometimes stop and think to myself what will I be doing if I don't go to college. Since all of us spend most of our time in school while we are kids and teens, I am so used to the schedule time, work and atmosphere that I want to keep on doing this as my future career. So,to achieve my goal,right now I am a mentor for a kindergarten class and I am a teacher aid for a Guyer teacher. I have been doing community service for the past three years in the Salvation Army angel tree where we helped raise Christmas gifts for unfortunate kids. Interfaith helping filling out applications and distributing"back to school supplies"and at church distributing Christmas gifts. In school I am in the multicultural club, Key club, Spanish Honor Society, Cosmetology where we do beauty services for senior citizens and where we went to skills USA(a competition)where I won I st and 4tn place in cutting and styling hair, and several others. In addition I have taken Pre-AP and AP classes to improve my education skills and to prepare myself for college. So I think that I can be the best candidate for the LULAC National Scholarship Fund because when I enter college I plan to still keep on doing community service keep up with my grades and try hard at college until I accomplish my goal. Jessie San Miguel As a Mexican American student struggling agaisnt the current of standard education I have been taught by my family to not give into the norm of mainstream education. I have been taught by my siblings to be a very driven person and set high goals and aspirations for myself. When I began my education I was a very confused kindergartener. I was not able to communicate in English with my teacher and she did not speak Spanish. You see at home my family only spoke Spanish. My parents are from a small town in Coahuila Mexico, and they migrated to Denton shortly after getting married. My father left Mexico to America with a third grade education and my another a high school diploma. They have been excellent parents.They have always provided any essentials that we needed,but when it came to school we were pretty much on our own. I was barely able to make it through kindergarten into first grade,now here I hit a road block. At the end of the year it was decided that I would not be promoted to the following grade due to my inability to read English efficiently. This was a devastating blow to my self-esteem that has haunted me ever since. I don't know why it is like a nightmare that I can't shake. This set me up for the rest of my education until I got to high school. I have been very fortunate to have been assigned teachers in high school that have motivated me in just the right manner. I began to feel a little more confident as each year passed in high school. I have worked very hard,harder than I ever thought I would work to obtain the grades that I have; this hard work has allowed me to become one of the valedictorians of my graduating class. 1 aim also a part of National Honor Society, Academic Decathlon in which I received a perfect score for interview, Key Club and Spanish Honor Society both of which I am president. I still can't believe it me the kid who did not know English, who was unsure of himself, and who had so many doubts and worries. I am hopeful that my hard work will pay off in the form of scholarships so that I can attend the University of Texas at Austin,which I was accepted to in December. My parents worry that it will be too expense for me to attend school and worry that I will not finish my studies due to a financial burden. The cost of tuition for attending UT is roughly$23,000 per year, an expense my parents do not have the capacity to help pay. I am more optimistic, if this shy insecure kid can get a 5.0 grade point average anything can happen. With the help of your wonderful organization I hope to lessen the financial migraine this is causing my parents. We arc currently scurrying, mapping out our financial plan in hopes that I do not have to reject my acceptance to ur. In high school I have been fortunate enough to enroll in a technical class which will allow me to apply for my pharmacy technician license when I graduate. By obtaining my pharmacy teelmician license I hope to work in a pharmacy while attending school in order to obtain experience that will enhance my knowledge in the pharmacy field. I will be the first of my siblings to be leaving home to attend college, so this is a really big step for my family. I also would like to enter community service organizations on campus; which is something I am very passionate about. My long term goals will only become a reality if I meticulously work on my short term goals. Once at UT I hope to enter the University of Texas at Austin College of Phannacy and successfully finish my studies to obtain my pharmacist's degree. Once graduated, I hope to find a phannacy job in which I can reach an array of people and help them to decipher between medications and work with doctors to create effective patient prescription plans. All my goals are interwoven to€;ether one thread supporting the next, my desire to succeed is so great that it is that desire that make all of these threads bind strongly together and allows me to see the finished tapestry,that of me in my pharmacy. I ultimately hope to make my parents proud of me and serve as an example to other Hispanic students. I hope to show them that, querer es poder. iSi se pucde! No matter what the odds are if you want something bad enough you will surpass any obstacles to reach your goals. If a Mexican American student who was held back in first grade for his inability to read English is graduating valedictorian,than anyone that sets their mind to it will be successful. f a o�� My career goal is to attain a Masters Degree in electrical engineering. With this degree I wish to push the technological advances of electronic devices to their limits in order to progress the world. To do this, I will be attending school at the University of North Texas. I am excited to begin my studies however 1 will need financial assistance. In order to help with my tuition, i have applied for numerous scholarships and I am working at a restaurant to help save money. My parents are wiling to help me and have saved some money aside. I will apply for student after i review how much scholarship funds I accumulate. My education is important to me because my parents did not have one. My mother had a big family growing up and in order to help the household she dropped out of high and worked a job. My father is from Mexico where the education system only advances up to the sixth grade. I have watched their struggles and it has showed me how vital an education is in order to succeed in life. I ask you to help me on my education. Your scholarship will not go to waste if it is awarded to me. Edith Estrada My career goal for the future is to have a major in astronomy. Since my arrival to the United States six years ago, I have had an extreme interest in space exploration from watching movies and shows.When I lived in Mexico, I lived in a very poor town and people didn't really think about education.The only thing we'd worry about is how life would be after getting out of middle school. Especially for women since they had to to take care of their brothers and sisters while parents worked on the corn fields. It was totally different in the U.S. though; I learned about explorations, new discoveries, and very interesting research. I was happy to have been given the opportunity to study as much as I wanted. I have a great desire to study astronomy because it involves a lot of exploration. I want to study something that involves discovering things that have not been touched. I am also interested in 3D animation. I have been taking a 3D animation class this year at the Advanced Technology Complex in Denton,TX. I really like to create new things that I know people will like. Animation is one of the best careers that I know of and like the most. Animation lets my imagination run wild and create new ideas. I am involved in my school's Mujeres con Suenos Club where we help girl students, especially Latinas, with any problem that they may have in school or at home. At the same time we learn leadership skills. I am also involved in the French Club. There, I learn about the French language and the culture. We celebrate the French holidays and sometimes get a taste of their food. Because of my parent's income,they cannot help me with my economic needs in order for me to continue to college. Therefore, I need to obtain enough money to continue with my studies and this scholarship will help me a lot. I am thankful my father, after many years of hardships,decided to give my brothers and me a better life than what we could have had in Mexico. I hope you can understand the situation I'm in and can give me an opportunity to continue with my education. Jacquelyn Monique Rivera Essay Growing up in Austin and succeeding as a student at Round Rock High School prepared me for the challenges that further awaited me at the school I transferred to my sophomore year in Denton, Texas, John H. Guyer High School. I have been fortunate to be able to take the classes I have wanted to take and be in any of the clubs and organizations I have wanted to become a part of. Throughout my high school years I have taken many pre-AP and AP classes to prepare me for college. I feel that challenging myself by taking these courses has prepared me for what college is going to be like. I hope to finish out my senior year strongly by working even harder to raise my Grade Point Average(GPA) before I graduate. Starting high school, my freshman year I was involved in the Round Rock Marching Band and in the Symphonic Band. I transferred to my current school, John H. Guyer High School during my sophomore year and was elected the Clarinet Section Leader. Also that year, I was inducted into the National Honor Society and the Spanish Honor Society. I joined the Student Education Through Diverse Dancing Club and the Multicultural Club. During my junior year I became Treasurer for the Spanish Honor Society and stayed active in all of the previous clubs. In addition to being elected the Clarinet Section Leader again, I was nominated to be Band President my senior year. This year, which is my senior year I have been involved in all of the previously mentioned clubs and organizations and in addition the League of Friends, which was established this year. For this club, I help coordinate all of the parties and activities. I am now Vice President of the Multicultural Club, Vice President of Spanish Honor Society and President of the Band. I enjoy being a part of the many organizations and helping out in any way possible. After high school I plan to study Business Administration while attending the University of Texas in Arlington on the Coordinated Admissions Program (CAP), then transferring to the University of Texas in Austin in the Fall of 2010. After receiving a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration I want to pursue my education further and receive a Master's degree. Furthermore, since I have been taking an AP course in Psychology this semester, I have become intrigued in learning about the human mind. It is extraordinarily fascinating to learn the different facets of the mind, and why people act in certain situations throughout their lives. Because of this, I am contemplating studying Psychology as a minor. To pursue a minor in Psychology, I am willing to take all of the classes necessary to become a Psychologist. I believe one of my passions is assisting people, being a licensed Psychologist would allow me to further continue my love for establishing interpersonal communications to help people. I feel I have worked to the best of my ability to qualify for this scholarship, I deem . that being awarded this scholarship will be an inspiration and re-encouragement to myself that I can really achieve my goals if I use my knowledge to the best of my abilities. Because of the fact that only a few people in my family have gone to college and even fewer actually graduated, I feel it is imperative that I start and finish all four years and also continue on until I receive my Master's degree. I know that it will be a lot of money and hard work, but I know that this scholarship will assist me in paying for tuition so that I can further my education and achieve what many in my family have not had the opportunity to accomplish. If you select me to receive this scholarship I am fully confident that you will not regret your decision.

The AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Literature courses only calmed my desires for Spanish temporarily until I will be able to submerge myself further into studying the language.

Lgnuxs� ion _ 0.3/2,9 %10 Signature of Applicant Date ©1/10 Jamie Portillo Personal Essay My personal goals,career goals,and my studies are all leading to nursing school. I plan on attending Texas Woman's University to begin my career as a nurse. With my research, I found that I could become a nursing assistant in about a year in a half into college. I plan to achieve this and get an internship into a hospital; there getting more experience in the medical field. While working on my career, I plan to keep attending TWU;receive my bachelors degree and then after,my masters. I think that getting an internship into my career will really help, in assuring me that this is in fact,the right field for me. Being paid for something especially the main field that I'm interested in will help me be able to help my family with the expenses of the household. At TWU, I will be achieving something my mother always wanted to do: become a nurse,but because of financial reasons she couldn't continue her dream,whereas today with financial help, it will be possible! It would be a great pleasure to show her that with my achievements in school, I could get help financing my own education, receiving a better education, as well as making my dream come true. Even though I have not volunteered in a nursing environment thus far, I have volunteered at Interfaith Ministries of Denton with the Back-to-School project. This program has helped me make up my mind about becoming a nurse; mainly because of the appreciation people gave in my helping them. While I was volunteering at Interfaith; starting in the summer of my seventh grade year,my very first assignment was to interpret and ask people for correct documentation. After doing that for that summer the next summer I was promoted to more interaction with people by taking applications. To me this was a great achievement. Since then,every summer I volunteer at Interfaith Ministries of Denton. This past summer I started answering phones,scheduling appointments and taking applications for other things in the Ministries instead of only volunteering with the Back-to-School program, 1 Jamie Portillo ! Personal Essay which is providing me with a great amount of experience. With all of the gratitude I have received from the people that I have helped, as well as the experience I have received in my volunteering at Interfaith, I strongly know where I want my future to go. 2 R Iye-ra PERSONAL ESSAY Please type or print neatly a statement describing the personal&career goals your studies are leading to. In addition,please describe any community service activities that you have lead or participated in that relate to your future personal and career goals, My future career of choice is in Architecture. Going back as far as I can remember, I would always say that I wanted to be an architect. I guess it is one of those things that stuck with me. I always had an interest in drawing, and designing my own original creations. Throughout both my junior high and high school years, I have taken multiple classes that will benefit me in pursuing a career in architecture.Some of the courses I have successfully completed include; Drafting, Pro-Tech, Communication Systems,Architectural Graphics,and Research and Design. I have many long-range goals that 1 am set on achieving. First, I want to become closer with God and strengthen my faith. I also want to be able to look back on my college years and say I have worked hard to reach my educational and career goals. I want to be able to say"I have made it." To make this dream a reality I have taken advanced level courses and maintained above average grades,while staying active in sports and keeping a job. I have also taken various architecture-related courses that will better mold me to becoming successful in that field of work. Recently I haven't had a lot of time to give to community service activities, but there are two things I usually volunteer in. Being the eldest of three children, I never had an older brotherly-like figure that can play the role of teaching me new things and watching out for me. Recently, I was given the opportunity to help coach my little brother's select basketball team. It's a humbling experience to coach because you teach kids how to play the game,and as a result you see them thrive. I have also volunteered with Habitat For Humanity,when I had the chance. It was really fun to help provide for families in need and it was also an enjoyment to see how houses were built. Sure,they are difficult task but watching my brother's team win and seeing families start a new beginning really fills me with a sense of pride. Applicant's signature required.

Signature of Applicant Date ©ono Scholarship Essay Making good grades in all of my classes and making my way into a good college is where I am most concerned, because if I can make it that far, I'll be able to find a career later in life that I can be successful in. Since the ninth grade and even before, I've taken advanced classes and AP classes to help me prepare for college. I expect my major to be in either animation or photography because ever since I was a kid, I've loved both, spending most of my time drawing and taking pictures. Throughout junior high school I have taken many art and technology classes, turning my simple hobby into what I believe will soon become my profession. My long-term goals are to be able to survive college and to find a career that I can succeed in yet enjoy at the same time. Each and every one of my AP classes has been really challenging, and if college is going to be even tougher than those, I have a real challenge to face ahead of me. However, I have no doubt that if I had decided against taking the AP classes I would be nowhere near prepared to enter college. Throughout my life I have heard too many times about people who are trapped working in a job that they can't stand, yet can do nothing about it, or of people who love what they do, but don't have enough money to live by. So my goal in life is to be different, to be someone who can do what they love and love what they do. Andrea Vasquez 5 Scholarship Essay My career plans for the future are to become a teacher in the math department,specifically an algebra two high school teacher. I want to do this because I love working with people,and I love everything there is about,the subject of math.This year as a senior,I am my former Algebra 2 teacher's student aid,and I love helping her kids,and tutoring them.As her aid I have also taught her junior and senior class. 1 have really enjoyed this experience and it has reinforced my passion for teaching! As far as my educational plans for reaching this goal, I want to start my basics at NCTC for two years, then transfer over to UNT or TWU to get my teaching degree in the math field. I even have plans to go on to graduate school to someday teach math at the college level. The Jam Session All my life I had heard of rare events where people connected with others on a deeper emotional level through music. I always heard it described as a once in a lifetime experience with the power to change people. A few weeks ago I had a few hours to kill, so I decided to blow my tenor sax into the open air. At first I was playing my typical practice routine. However,my mind began to wander,traveling to the greater complexities of human existence. Soon my playing began to take off,into territories I had never explored musically. I was playing what was in my heart,and everyone could hear it. Some people,lured by the sounds I was making, sat down quietly,closed their eyes,and just listened. I could tell they felt everything I felt.Then one singular thought popped into my head,improv. After my final musical emotion,I quietly asked them if they had ever improvised with other musicians. They had not,but they were all open to new things. I began playing a walking bass line. At that moment I was feeling regret,sadness,and a longing for absolution. After an awkward start,we achieved perfect harmony,and we became one. One vocalist began making up lyrics,repeating the heartfelt melodic phrase "I'm sorry,I'm sorry". The others were able to feel it,able to bring it out. The emotional release was phenomenal. None of us had ever experienced such emotional power,and we left that jam session different people. That day I knew I had to become a professional musician,to touch hearts,to inspire love, and to be the voice for those who cannot be heard.I want to blow my horn and have the world change. r f 141ya6et- Right now, I am a senior at Ryan High School. I chose to challenge myself by enrolling in Advanced Placement(AP) courses,and additionally involve myself in as many organizations as possible. I am a member of P.A.L.S.or Peer Assistance Leadership Service,where we do many things not only for our school, but for our community as well. PALS work with new students at our school.We receive their schedules,and escort them to their lunch,sit and talk with them, then introduce them to people who we know to be good students, and great friends as well. At the end of each six weeks,we host a luncheon for all of the new students to come together and eat chips, dips,cake, and drink sodas with us. PALS also mentor what we call "buddies".We have an 8th grader and a 5th grader as our buddies,and we become close friends with them,and give them a support system. PALS pledge to be alcohol,tobacco, and drug free;we serve as role models around our school. One other important thing that PALS do is mediate on campus.We become certified, and help our peers settle disagreements by organizing and performing peer mediations. I am Vice President of our Rotary Interact Club,which is a national organization. Our club has received every award that can be won, and recently we were featured in a documentary called 7 Days Across America. I was one of the lucky six to be interviewed as spokesperson and representative of our Interact Club. Our club has 60 members, and continues to grow each year. Rotary Interact hosts a fall and spring food drive every year,we participate in our community's Angel Tree,and in the beginning of the'09-'10 school year, I brought a new project to Rotary called Senior for Seniors.This group would be geared towards seniors needing community service hours for college, but was open to anyone of any grade in our school. I talked with a couple of retirement centers who wouldn't mind our organization volunteering at their center. After a couple of months, I found the perfect retirement center called Cottonwood, which is also a rehabilitation center,so students not only get the chance to work with the elderly who don't have family or friends to visit with,but can also help out people who've injured themselves by coming up with activities that are fit for them to perform,and thus heal sooner. I joined these organizations so that I could find a place where I belonged, and that's what these clubs did for me. In joining PALS and Rotary Interact, I learned that there are so many things that we can do for others, to further unite our community. Being a member of these clubs, and leading helped me to pursue future goals, such as college. I became a better student in volunteering, and thus a better person. As a freshman in high school, I joined an organization whose goal was for me to succeed academically in high school and then to enter and to graduate with a bachelor's degree. In three months, I will accomplish the first goal of this program. In six months, I will begin my first fall semester at the University of North Texas as an initial part of the second goal of this program. The college preparatory program Upward Bound serves students who are first generation college students and come from low-income families. I will be the first in my family to graduate from college. As well as academic success, my membership in Upward Bound encouraged me to participate in school activities. I have served in leadership roles in Student Council, Key Club, Multicultural Club, and class officer. Through my leadership roles, I have started new service opportunity for students. I am a trend setter. Neither of my parents completed their college studies. My parents' lack of a bachelor's degree has limited their career field choices and their career mobility. Also, they have not been able to answer many of my questions about college life. Throughout my four years in Upward Bound, I have experienced a college atmosphere, surrounded by thousands of students that have a dream just like me. I have learned how it feels to sleep in a dorm and eat cafeteria food everyday; and that sleep is not always an option when you have to study or read. Also, I have traveled to many colleges to explore their differences. Now, I am prepared to commence my college journey and become the first in my family to graduate from college. Before Upward Bound, I would not have realized my ability to lead in student organizations. Last spring, I accepted the job of Lt. Governor for my Key Club district. I lead eleven Key Clubs making sure they serve within their communities and understand the values of our organization. To help my clubs, I offered them a new service project: selling necklaces made from the women of Rwanda, Africa. By selling these necklaces we helped these women feed, educate, and provide healthcare for their children. I am pleased with our success in this endeavor and the decision by several clubs to continue their service next year. I am a strong believer in what Albert Einstein said, "intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death." As a way to carry out Einstein's philosophy I will attend the University of North Texas and need to receive financial aid to fulfill my dream. Political science is my chosen major. I enjoy discussing politics and am eager to have more in- depth study in this field. I would be pleased to have a career in public service at the state or national legislative branch. With my political science major, I plan to major or minor in Spanish in order to solidify my writing and speaking skills in my first language. Being bilingual, I see opportunities for me to serve two cultures through my political science field. A trend setter models new paths for those in her circle of influence. As the first in my family to graduate from college, I will be able to lead my younger siblings and younger cousins in their pursuits of high education. I will be the voice of expertise during college searches and the voice of support during finals. Through continued service in my own life, I look forward to researching new opportunities to aid my local and global communities. With my bilingual skills, I know that I can be the voice to bridge cultures. During my high school career, I have started a new path for my family's educational future and a new path for students in Texas to aid their global community. I am a trend setter. I I II Stephen Place I am an official National Hispanic Scholar, as designated by The College Board. I am a member of the National Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society. In the National Spanish Honors Society chapter at Denton High School, I have held the position of Treasurer for the past two years and have helped coordinate events as an officer. Last year I took the National Spanish Exam and received a Bronze level certificate (ranked in the top 20%of students in the nation). I have taken the National Spanish Exam this year but have not received my official scores or ranking yet. I am a member of the Denton High School Orchestra, where I have been the Stage Manager for three years. As an orchestra officer, I have helped plan fun events for the orchestra, set up and taken down equipment for every concert, helped decorate and clean the orchestra room, and assist the orchestra director as needed. I played tennis during my first three years of high school and was designated an athletic scholar all three years, and this year I ran on the DHS cross country team. During my junior year I held a leadership position as the top seed of the JV Tennis team and worked individually with newer players. Last year I helped start a cycling and triathlon team at DHS and have competed in a few races and events in the community. have volunteered at A.R.M. (Asbury Relief Ministry) weekly every summer for the past four years at my home church distributing food to homeless in local area. I have annually volunteered at Denton County Toy Store, distributing toys to 1300+disadvan- taged children receiving 4 to 5 toys each, and used Spanish communication skills to communi- cate with bilingual or Spanish-speaking families. My family was the 2008 Denton County Family of the Year runner-up; we were named the Fam- ily of Integrity. have gone on 2 mission trips with my church youth group, doing inner-city work in Houston, Tx and Nashville, Tn. I played my cello weekly in my church orchestra from 7th grade through 12th grade, including weekly rehearsal time and performance time. Since my freshman year, I have been very involved in my church youth group as the leader of our praise band and a representative on our church's Youth Council. As the leader of our band, I have worked with my youth pastor to organize Wednesday night meetings, helped coordinate events for our band to play, and worked with younger musicians to replace the graduating sen- iors. As a Youth Council member, I meet with other youth members and members of the church to plan youth events, speak to the church on behalf of the youth group, and lead Wednesday night meetings. Stephen Place Last summer, I traveled alone to Costa Rica to study at a Spanish immersion school. Raised by my mother and Nicaraguan father, his parents, and his grandmother, I was exposed to Spanish but did not learn it at an early age. I made it a personal goal in high school to study Spanish to the point of proficiency so that I could communicate with my grandparents and great-grandmother as well as speak Spanish in my career. I am undecided about my college major, but I have been considering the medical field, specifically nursing. In preparation for a medical-based major in college, I am tak- ing AP Biology. Even if I decide to change my major, I aspire to provide some sort of service to others. I am also considering the field of environmental science. I helped start an AP Environmental Science class and an Ecology Club at Denton High School this year. I believe that today's societies can 'improve the effect that they are having on the earth, and I want to help make it a better place to live in, either by working as a water man- agement coordinator, pollution and reclamation control manager, or studying the direct effects that pollution has on the environment. It has been a personal goal of mine to have a service career since I started work- ing in ministries at my church and opportunities around the community. One ministry at my church that I have been very involved in is called the Denton County Toy Store; I have helped distribute toys to 1300+ disadvantaged children, and used Spanish to communicate with Spanish-speaking families. I have also been able to speak Spanish with several people at our church's food distribution ministry, known as A.R.M. Another community service project related to my future career goals has been helping at the Denton Stream Clean, picking up trash in the city's parks. Makena Kinkel League of United Latin American Citizens Describe your personal and career goals your studies are leading to. Describe any community service activities that you have lead or participated in that relate to your personal and career goals. My goals include studying medicine in order to become a Pediatric Oncologist where I hope to make an impact on children fighting cancer. I want to be an advocate and get involved in my patient's lives. I've taken Spanish,and since it is my heritage,I hope to help minority children. Spending quality time with diagnosed children would allow me to learn their weaknesses so that I could help them stay strong.Understanding children's physical,emotional and social needs would help them stay motivated and focused in fighting their disease. My career choice comes with serious considerations and responsibilities and I want to mentor children through their difficulty. My educational goals include studying hard so that I can be an effective Doctor. Medical professions make our society better and I am excited to be able to be apart of this. With increasing technology in our society,the cure for cancer could be realized during my lifetime. It would be amazing if I was at the forefront of this medical cure. I have been preparing for college by taking difficult courses, such as 5 Advance Placement courses where I've maintained straight A's. An overview of my high school activities which relate to my future profession, include the following: • National Honor Society: where I have participated in community service activities involving children, • National Spanish Honor Society: as Vice President, I hold meetings and plan community activities involving my Spanish heritage. • League of Friends:where I mentor mentally disabled students and help them become more social. • PALS: as an elected part of this program, I mentor an elementary school student once a week and give 10 hours of weekly community service. • Key Club: where I participated in various community service activities including picking up trash in parks. Al My personal goal to my studies is to go to the University of North Texas, acquire a Master's in Criim9inal Justice and then work in the Federal Bureau of Investigations and support my mother financially. I want to be successful so I can give my mom some of the luxuries that she has given me. I want to be the best in my occupation so I can make a lot of money and give my mom material things that she wants but can't have because she has three children.The biggest reason to be successful is so she would stop working. My mother has worked since she was seventeen years old, in order for her to support my brother and me financially. I want her to stop working and relax and enjoy life, I want to have my mom for a long time,she is my hero and I don't know what I would do without her. I know that she worries about how to pay the bills since my brother is in college too, I even considered not going to college and start working because college is so expensive and I don't want to stress my mom out anymore. I know that my sister will go to college too, and 1 want to help her with that, because I don't want my mom to have to take another job. My career goal is to be the best agent in the Federal Bureau of Investigations.When I tell people that I want to be in it,they laugh,they don't take me seriously. I have determination and I will do anything in my power to be in that organization. I want to be in the FBI because I want to fight terrorism. I want to use my qualities to ensure the safety of this country. 1 want to fight and help end terrorism. I want to make this country safe for future generations. I have started my part by helping my community. I have tutored children at elementary school. I have cleaned the streams of Denton. I have collected food for the homeless. I have feed the elderly, and I have helped in summer school for ESL students. I know that even little things will make a difference, and step by step I'm making a difference in this world. -iTdctYl W Ocr�lv I (0 Does math actually have a true meaning in the real world? During my high school career taking algebra and geometry,the answer to that question was math had no real purpose, at least for me. From my perspective math was pointless, and frankly became a weakness of mine. As I got older I began to challenge myself because math was one of my weaknesses. After coming to realize that math consist of solving problems just as daily life deals of problem solving. Life can be a systematic process with implying information in order to achieve what needs to be done. Math has helped me decide and realize what I want my educational and career goals to be. As I continued to take math I enjoyed the challenge of it not coming as easy as it should. Gradually my skills grasped dealing with formulas, numbers, and figures. I would like to further my education with a major in accounting. Handling figures and sets of data seems to be something I feel that I have a future in. I want my minors to consist of helping others and solving problems. People in everyday life, local communities can make a difference and I want to help them do so. Why are people gradually becoming more and more overweight each year increasing the Nations overall weight?Well one of minor's health and fitness will offer a chance to fix this problem in local communities.With all the newly advanced technology people hardly ever get out of their house. When they are out they're on their jobs claiming they have no time to exercise. Well what if I could come up with a plan to change this. I'd like to offer clinics showing how to eat right and how to find the time to exercise with a job. My methods about doing this will make the consumer pay less and enjoy doing so. Exercise is needed with a complimentary diet. Our Nation needs to understand how important health and fitness is. In order to understand the human mind I will take psychology. A better understanding of how the male and female mind works. This way I can not only help people with health and fitness but also in everyday life. By obtaining a minor in psychology I will have the tools to relate to how people feel and what blocks their mind at times. A Scenario would be a guy goes up to a girl but does not have the confidence to ask her on a date. Why is that? 1 can apply this to getting in shape or wanting a better relationship with a family member. What can I do to push the right buttons to drive confidence and motivation out of the person? Hopefully with getting a chance further in my career I can have an office building to deal with problems like this. Problems even form marriage to working with family issues will be highly on my objective list. I feel it's important to help others because those are the true people that really make a difference or real contribution. Once again earning a major in accounting will help me along the way. Earning a successful income will help me to explore my minors' health and fitness and psychology. The money I put back and save up can make a difference in the world and the lives of people. 6#xkl AAa bar LULAC Essay Ever since I saw how my nephew was visited for two years by a nurse I've wanted to be one. Seeing how she took care of my nephew, even when he was in pain, when the nurse came to our house to administer medication you can tell that he felt happier when she came. To see how grateful my family was by having her to help and in accumulation of those daily visits allowed me to pursue nursing as a career. I want to help people; I want to be there when I'm needed by families. My studies are leading me to major in nursing, I have been preparing since my freshmen year in high school by taking Health Science classes that are available for preparing for occupations in the medical field. With my passion of helping people, I have done community service projects. I've volunteered at festival booths at elementary schools and will be volunteering in early April with another project involving first to fifth graders. Since I like working with children and helping them I want to be a pediatric nurse. I want to make them feel better and be there for them. Something else I have done for a service project is go out with my church to the nursing home and sing Christmas carols to the residents. Helping people is important to me, and since being interested in the medical field I want to major in nursing and reach my goal of being a nurse and making my parents and family members proud. In life, I have always set myself personal goals which I would think would lead me to something better. I never really have set a standard in my goals. My goals have always meant to be met and from that point on to just create a new and much higher goal and so on. Four years ago when I entered high school my goal was to graduate and be the first in my family to do so. From that point on my second goal was to attend a University or College which would have some study in which I would be interested in. Since I was a child I have always been intrigued by how houses and building are built.The designs of the structures and its complex looks have always interested me. It was those moments,in which I felt so interested in knowing just how those buildings were to come to real life that I decided and set myself a new and much higher standard than ever before. My career goal has been to receive a degree in the study of architecture and someday I can be able to design similar or even better structures than those. Nonetheless, my entire life has also been devoted to playing soccer. At the age of 13 one of my little brothers entered a soccer team for his first time. I was offered by his coach a chance to be able to spend time to teach those little kids how to play soccer and nonetheless, to be able and have fun with them. For the past 5 years I have been an assistant coach for my brother's soccer team and I have grown to look at this sport in a different perspective than just from a player. Being a volunteer for a boys' soccer team has taught me responsibility. I have to be able to be responsible for a young group of kids in and off the field. I talk to them about life and how nothing is easy,but, that nothing in life is impossible either. The way life is set up is just so that you learn how to overcome its obstacles and to make you a much better person. This being said, I have been accepted to attend the University of Texas at Arlington where I will attend in the fall of 2010. I will follow my dream and study architecture and set myself a new goal for my future. From this point on my main goal, however, is to now graduate and be a successful architect. 1 2 3 4 5 16 17 DISD TWU UNT NCTC NAACP Table 16 Table 17 1 Dr.Jeanette Smith Becky Rodriguez Patrick Vasquez Dr. Lee Ann Nutt Catherine Bell 1 Euline Brock Rod Fleming 2 Dr.Glenna Harris Rene Ramon Diana Arias Roy Culbertson Harry Bell 2 Horace Brock Lisa Goin 3 Charles Stafford Ronnie Valensuela Mike Duke Roxanne Del Rio Elihu Gillespie 3 Mark Burroughs Daniel Sanchez 4 Dr.Curtis Ramsey Irene Ramon Miguel Garcia Dr. Noell Jean Washington 4 Mrs Burroughs Roy Sanchez 5 Virginia Gallian Paola Aricela Oscar Garcia Jenny Cardenas Carol Hinkle 5 Alan Moreno Colleen Sanchez 6 Teresa Luna-Taylor Deanna Parada Diana Garcia Lizete De Rojas Brenda Anderson 6 Arcadio Moreno Evelyn Lopez-Corum 7 Bilingual Ed Julio Zun-Del LINT Pt-Sofia Reyes Kathy Coleman 7 Magdelena Moreno Aaron.

Christopher Torres My goals for education and future vocation, is to succeed and excel at whatever I do. Education means a lot to me and is very important that I continue to get one so I can achieve my future vocation. An educational goal I have is to major in business and to minor in psychology. As for my future vocation, I plan to be a future business man. With the financial help of the LULAC National Scholarship fund, I can achieve these goals. I have several personal strengths and skills that will allow me to be successful next year in school. One of my strengths is determination. My determination drives me to excel in my school work and ability to reach a higher education. A personal skill I have is strong work ethic. I will give it my all in any assignments given to me and will work hard to make sure it is done the correct way. I shall be successful in school next year with theses qualities. My greatest challenge would have to be overcoming my disability and not let it be a crunch for me to lean on. I have never let my disease get in the way of pursuing a higher education. Overcoming the numerous amounts of surgeries was part of the challenge, but I pulled through and kept at it in physical therapy so I could get my leg moving again. I have had the support of my parents the entire time I was hospitalized and they never gave up on me. I look forward to overcoming any other challenges I will face in the future.

My career goals are to major in education,particularly seventh-twelfth grade math and major in bilingual from EC-12`h grade, and also major as a coach. My career goals are immensely important to me thus my studies during high school and extra curricular activities such as Ready Set Teach are specifically geared towards my career. Through out high school I realized that enrolling in Advanced Placement core classes was a must do to major in education. Advanced Placement,Pre Advanced Placement, and Dual Credit courses have been my focus since my sophomore year. Thanks to those courses and my rigorous studies I was able to have a good position in my grades to know that my career is achievable. One of my favorite Courses that I took last year as a junior and this year as a senior is Ready Set Teach. It enhanced my interest in my career and game me a taste of what I need to do and what I need to prepare my self for. I participated in a real life elementary, Pecan Creek Elementary,and was able to teach lessons and actually become the teacher for part of the day. This program was such an amazing experience; it flung the doors open for me and introduced me what my future career will be like. My studies in this class led me and keep pushing me to achieve my goal to become a math and a bilingual teacher as well as a coach. i i i i 1•• r i t "1 Diana Sanchez LULAC ESSAY March 10, 2011 Nursing has always been my dream career as I have continued to admire the field. Being able to make a person better and save lives fascinates me. Even as a young girl, I showed nursing qualities and skills,taking care of my brother and treating him as if he were a patient, so my parents say. Therefore, becoming a Registered Nurse in the future is my career goal. Pursuing my dream career, I have been taking certain classes to bring me closer towards it. I began with the basic studies, Health Science 1, my sophomore year. In Health Science 2, junior year, I was able to attend the Denton Regional Medical Center at least twice a week, experiencing different clinical sites in the hospital and being able to communicate with nurses, doctors, and even patients. I loved it! My senior year I took Anatomy and Physiololgy, developing additional knowledge of the body, as it is very So, I decided to advance to a Certified Nursing Assistant course my senior year. In C.N.A class, I was given the opportunity to visit the Good Samaritan Village nursing home to attain knowledge, improve skills, and prepare for the State Board Test. My favorite part is spending time with the residents and making them feel as comfortable as possible. The State Board Test will allow me to obtain a certification as a nurse assistant and open more opportunities for me. While attending the Texas Woman's University in Denton, into which I have been accepted to, my plans are to work as a nurse assistant at a nearby hospital or nursing home to extend my skills forward. Finally, with success and my dream career in hand, I will feel as to be prepared to start my own personal goals such as getting married and creating a family in which I will commit myself to. I would also be interested in involving myself with organizations and participating in groups of individuals who are interested in the Medical field. I would pursue the values and possible choices as to becoming any type of nurse and even any other career in the Medical field. 3zG� `� '� r• ry \(� � 1� , ){eretj 5anrte3 ;I S-66 Z s S�- "No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you." —Joshua 1:5 It was 6 AM when I heard a knock at the door; I never expected what happened next. When my dad and I opened the front door we were both surprised to see two ICE police officers at the door. They told us they were looking for a guy named Ceaser and if we knew him. We said no and they didn't believe us. They came in the house and searched it. My mom was in the shower and my little brother and sister were asleep and none of that mattered to them, they went ahead and invaded our privacy. They asked my dad for his papers but they were expired. They didn't hesitate at all to arrest him right there in our house when they were looking for someone else. It has been two years already that my dad was deported back to El Salvador. After that horrible morning we had to move out of our house and move to something that my mom could afford. Even now we still struggle financially. Still God was and still is my help in my time of need. That is why the above verse means so much to me. Even though my dad was taken away from me, my heavenly father never stopped being there for me. He gave me strength to keep going fighting for what I believed in and for what I wanted in life. I one day hope to be a Registered Nurse and also be the first in my family to go to college. I have given my time to the community and hope that with my further education I can be of more use to it. I have been Secretary, Vice President and President of the church youth group for about for years now. I love being able to serve in my church cause even though we have good times we also have moments where I have learned from my mistakes and have been able to make a difference in someone's life. I have also been in the church band for three years as one of the L • s v 1'� chorus singers. Singing has been one of my greatest joys. It's something that helps me when I'm stressed or tired, and is something special that allows me to have a different connection with God. When I close my eyes and sing I feel as if everything around me slowly melts away like an ice cream on a very hot day. I am a current member of Upward Bound, PALS, and Rotary Interact. Being in these groups has influenced me to try my hardest and give my very best. They have also taught me to value the things that I have, things that people take for granted like my education. Please help me as I said earlier my mother is the only family provider and she alone won't be able to put me through college. That is why I deserve this scholarship because I have contributed to my community. I have also proved that even through tough times I have been able to maintain a 3.6 GPA and focus on what lies ahead. I didn't let anything get in my way of achieving my dream of graduation from high school. With your help later in the future I will achieve my goal of being the first in my family to graduate from college. In the next school year I hope to attend the University of Texas at Austin. I have been accepted and nearly everything has been set, all that remains if figuring out how to pay for my education there. I will be studying in the College of Natural Sciences working towards graduating as a Biology major, with minors in French and Spanish. I plan to attend medical school after my first four years as an undergraduate. In order to be accepted into medical school, my score on the MCAT needs to be very high, and I believe an education at UT Austin will prepare me well enough to do so. Eventually, after medical school, I hope become a doctor specialized in intensive care. My plan is to attend UT Southwestern Medical School and afterwards be hired by Parkland Hospital in Dallas. But for any of that to become reality I need an excellent education during the first four years of college, which UT Austin can provide. Apart from becoming a doctor, I have many personal goals I wish to achieve in college as well. Probably the one with biggest importance to me is being the first member of my family to graduate from college. Because of my involvement with National Honor Society I have been able to participate in many community service activities. Although I wasn't diagnosing or treating patients, I was able to help a great deal of people, especially while volunteering at Ronald McDonald House in Ft. Worth. The sense of accomplishment and fulfillment felt after helping at such an event is something I hope to feel during my career as a doctor. �\Cvttvl YkJO t't ve 4 -ClAiP V .- �'1'��t!ti !L i'.1�,. . + � , � ...,� � � �.- . I plan to study journalism and photo journalism at the University of Texas at Austin. During my college career, I hope to receive an internship at a newspaper or magazine to help gain my footing in the journalism world and to begin to establish my name as a writer. Once I graduate college I plan to use this degree and journalism experience to work my way up to a journalist position at ESPN. At ESPN, I would love to interview the athletes and write my own articles or attend sporting events to write articles spotlighting a team,particular athlete, or coach. Another goal of mine is to spread the awareness of breast cancer and help work toward a cure through my photography and my grandmother's inspiring story. Over my high school career, I have participated in different clubs and organizations that have prepared me for my future and that have developed me as a strong leader. I have been a part of the PALS (Peer Assistance and Leadership) Program for two years, in which this year I am the Vice President. We partake in a number of group and individual community service activities such as,volunteering with Big Brothers Big Sisters, Adopt a Highway,helping other organizations in the school and other schools, and helping incoming freshmen and transfer students make the adjustment to a new school. I'm also a member of our schools Habitat for Humanity program, in which our spring build is to take place in April. Finally, I am also a part of National Honor Society, where we volunteer for things such as the Ronald McDonald House. �l e C. I?0&Y r e3 Camila F. Celis Being an immigrant has been the toughest thing I have ever gone through. Whenever I was younger my goals were very different to the ones that I have now since I was in my home country with all the surroundings that I was familiar with. When I moved here absolutely everything changed from the way I spoke to my goals in life. As I started school everything became ten times harder than what I was used to since now there was a language barrier that didn't allow me to express myself in the ways that I wanted to. From there everything made me want to become a stronger more daring person. English wasn't an obstacle anymore it became one of the many things I needed for survival. This made me realize how much more I could do in life. Suddenly everything became clear, by pushing myself beyond the limits of my capabilities I was able to accomplish more than what I initially thought I could. This set my personal goals to a very high standard.As a continued my journey with learning a new language I also set my career goals very high since I knew I wanted to stand out from the others as much as possible. This is also one of the reasons why I choose my career as industrial engineering, because in this career there aren't too many women and that is exactly what I want since standing out is one of my goals. I also chose this career because it is very challenging, but it obtains many things that I enjoy doing such as mathematics and science. This career takes these two subjects a level ahead of what I'm used to. I enjoy making my goals more challenging than what they should be. Community service has also played a huge role in my goal making decisions. I'm in a program at my high school called PAL,Peer Assistance Leadership, which has allowed me to view how beautiful life is. Every week we meet with a child that was assigned to us by the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. Every time I see the "littles" I realize how some of them deal with problems that I don't even have and they manage to be happy and have a smile on their face no matter what. By seeing this I feel so encouraged and I could say this has affected the reason of me wanting to raise my goal standards higher and also has allowed me to view my personal goals differently. My surroundings have created the biggest impact when it came time to setting my goals. So in a way life has taught me that the harder the journey the better you feel when you arrive at your destination. PERSONAL ESSAY Please type or print neatly a statement describing the personal&career goals your studies are leading to. In addition, please describe any community service activities that you have lead or participated in that relate to your future personal and career goals. My name is Michael Anthony Cudd.Personally,I plan to serve a 2 year church mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.I would like to be a healthy contributing member of society.Growing up,I was raised in a very happy family setting,so I plan to start a family of my own and make sure that my family will have multiple opportunities to be successful.In order for that to occur,I would need a good career, so i have set a goal to become a pediatrician/family doctor. I know the importance of education as a correlation to how much income i will receive for my family,so I have set a goal to receive my PhD somewhere in the medical field. I Played football at Ryan High School and was honored with the AP and TSWA Polls'award for All-State Wide Receiver for 4A in the State of Texas. My career ambitions include diligently working to become a doctor and the effort,desire and drive that I put into football will translate into receiving my education.Like Vince Lombardi said"Football is a great deal like life in that it teaches that work,sacrifice,perseverance, competitive drive,selflessness and respect for authority is the price that each and every one of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile." 1 have seamed this lesson at a young age and have the perseverance and will power to achieve the goals I have set for myself. In Boy Scouts of America,i received an eagle scout rank in my troop.This is a very prestigious award,and by gaining it,i learned many valuable things for my life. One of the most important lessons 1 learned was how to meet requirements and finish them according to deadlines set by the Boy Scouts of America.Also,I have learned the importance of leadership in our society and how the positive actions of one person can affect the lives of an entire community.These skills i have gained from boy scouts will help me in school,my career,and my fife goals and the same determination I used in scouts will help me to complete any tasks I must complete in order to advance in life My church has given me the leadership skills and abilities that I need to succeed at the next level. Also,the work ethic I have demonstrated for 4 years,by waking up and going to Bible Study Monday through Friday at 6 am,exhibits the drive I contain to learn about the things that are important to me. I aspire to be a doctor like my brother-in-law,Andy Fabela,another recipient of your scholarship funds.I know this scholarship benefited him a lot and I am walking in his footsteps.

Signature of Applicant Date lzamar Flores Twelve years from now I see myself as a general doctor volunteering at charity hospitals. Every year when I choose my classes, I pause and think how they will be beneficial for my future goal. I have strengthened my science skills by taking challenging classes'throughout my high school career. During my sophomore year I took one of the hardest classes in my life,AP Chemistry. Most of the time I felt like crying because the subjects were extremely difficult to follow and I was a shy person. However I didn't drop the class and although I didn't get any A's in my sophomore year I persevered with the resolve of taking it again in my senior year.This year I have managed to overcome my obstacles and become sensitive to others that may feel the same way I did two years ago.This class has helped me build character by teaching me not to give up, asking for help when needed and understanding others feelings better. I volunteer every Thursday afternoon from 4pm to 7pm in AP chemistry by helping my peears and at the same time learning to become a better person. The reason being that I don't want to be just a good doctor; I want to also be a doctor that shows kindness towards others. Furthermore, if I had to do it aging I would. I know that the path toward becoming a doctor will include classes as challenging as this one if not more so, but having persevered in AP Chemistry I now feel confident enough to know that I can succed in my goals. i i lneJ� GAYd4k de `re cis It was so bleak; I hardly remember those horrific nights of December. I was only seven years old when God decided to take away our precious little baby from us and into his heavens. My brother took the role to inspire others with his glowing smile so they could have a joyous day. He suffered from a weak immune system that not only changed his life forever and my mom's life too,but it altered my world along the way. What happened has changed my life forever because I now know what career path I plan to strive for. As I spent a great deal of the time in the hospital with my brother and mother, I learned the true significance of life; life gives us valuable experiences and molds our character. The drastic memories always penetrate my mind, remembering how my mother suffered every day seeing that her baby boy couldn't get any better. My memories also include wonderful people,whom never give up when it comes to someone's life. I want to make a change in others lives, also. I want to help my community by giving them high quality health care. For two years I have been in the Health Science Technology Education at the Advanced Technology Complex. I have gained experience from medical terminology to hands on care with residents at Denton Good Samaritan Nursing Center. As soon as I graduate from high school I will be a Certified Nursing Assistant and I will work my way up to a Registered Nurse. My personality has been molded to become that of a caretaker,which means I care about what people think and feel and will help them achieve what they desire. I am empathetic, charismatic, and responsible which not only enables me to help people but helps me become a better person each day. Furthermore, by using my leadership skills I plan to unite people by showing them how to care for one another. This is an important quality in life because it allows � f�i7rAc; �,4sik. I��`. people to discover their full potential. My ultimate goal is to not only make a difference in people's health,but also their hearts. Kevin Hernandez LULAC Scholarship I have set several goals and I plan to accomplish them all. One goal I have is to become a pharmacist. I wish to become a pharmacist because I have always wanted to do something in the medical field, but I can't stand the sight of blood. As a pharmacist I would be able to provide the resources for people to get better and stay healthy without having to deal with blood as much. I will be able to advise my peers and clients on how to maintain healthy so that they can live a good, long life. Another goal I have is to go to college. Both my parents did not go to college and they've told me several times to go to college and make my life easier. I do not wish to go to college to simply make my life easier, but rather to be able to provide a phenomenal life for my future family and make my parents proud. I want to be able to help out with anything they may need,whether it's books, medicine, bills, or even a new TV. My parents have provided so much for me and supported me so much and I'd like to give some back. I believe my parents deserve it. I am in the National Honor Society,the Spanish Honor Society, band, I currently volunteer at the public library and I am looking for other places to volunteer as well. I have continually tried to pave the way for me to be certain to go to college. To become a pharmacist, I must go to college for at least six years. The cost of going to college is expensive but I believe it will pay off in the long run in several ways. �. VOC • • : I , ` ! Georg Wilhelm Fredrich Hegel once said "nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.As I consider my college plans, these words remind me that,to contribute something positive to the world, I must channel my ambition into a field about which I care deeply.Through my experience and reflection, I have discovered that I'm passionate about helping others and hope to do so through international business and social entrepreneurship. During a trip to Europe, I witnessed a heartbreaking reality; I watched children beg for money on the streets in poor villages and adults struggle to sustain small businesses. 1 felt helpless and knew that if people in these countries were hurting, less developed nations needed even more assistance. I then decided that I wanted to help create stability in areas that lack the resources to do so alone.Studying international business with a minor in Spanish will prepare me to accomplish this goal and share my skills with people who wish to start businesses. Having such a blessed life leaves me with a personal conviction to give back.Taking four years of Spanish has provided me with the skills to communicate with people who are not fluent in English, and 1 have used them through volunteering at Vision Ministries and through my position as Vice President of Spanish Honor Society. My language and leadership skills have developed significantly, and I now want to apply my abilities to a career. After receiving a Bachelor's degree, I plan to spend two years in the Peace Corps before seeking a Master's. Ideally, I would like to work for a non-profit company afterward,continuing to travel to areas in need. I feel that this path will allow me to utilize my talents while accomplishing something that I feel passionate about, and it is my hope that this combination will create new opportunities throughout the world. �,QRk MEN�Es Zb 11 ��;a �1 r_. .• � , My name is Karla Ortiz and I am a senior at Guyer High School. I am looking to win a scholarship to help me pay for college after I graduate. I have taken several dual credit classes at North Central Texas College such as Economics, Government, and History, in which I made Xs in all. One of my main hobbies is playing the piano,which I have been playing for three years. I have volunteer at my church,Willowwood Church of the Nazarene, during the summer for Vacational Bible School and Basketball Camp. I have also volunteered during the summer at the Denton Public Library in their summer reading program. I have also helped in the Multicultural Club in school. I have four siblings,two smaller siblings and an older sister who goes to North Central Texas College. My dad was laid off months ago from the construction company he worked and he was the main provider in our house. I want to bachelor in Biology with a minor in Phycology. I plan to go to North Central Texas College for the first two years then go to University of North Texas. After I graduate of university I want to go to Medical School and be a Pediatrician. I really like kids and I want to make them feel better and help them out. So my ultimate goal is to one day become a Pediatrician. Juan Paredes I came here from Mexico City; my dad had already been here for six years. He came here because the life that we had in Mexico was difficult,with too much violence and not enough jobs. The other thing was that in Mexico neither my mom nor dad ever went to college because his parents never had the money to support them. All of my dad's family—brothers, sisters, and mom—worked in the fields, and because of that he was not able to find a job. So he came to the United States and sent money to support us, but it still wasn't enough. Then one day my dad brought us here to have a better life. I came here knowing no English at all, and it was hard at the beginning because I started in regular classes, except for my ESL class. It was hard to adapt to the environment here because of the language. By the time I was in gth grade, I started to speak a little English, enough to communicate with people. At the end of the school year, all of my teachers were proud of me because of the effort that I put into their classes every day. 9th grade was going to be the last time to take ESL classes, so the school started putting me in regular classes. I did great in all of them. But when I was a sophomore, my dad lost his job because the store found itself without business. Therefore, I had to start looking for a job, and I found a job immediately. For a year I had to support my family, and after that my dad got the opportunity to work with me at the same place. Later my mom had the same opportunity, so we've been working together for almost a year. Now that I'm a senior, I have the dream of going to college. I want to have the opportunity that my parents never had. I want to be a college graduate, so I can help my parents with their lives so they don't have to push as hard as they did all those years for me when I was a child. Christian Sotelo Taking the path towards the finish line with MD at the end is one of the hardest to accomplish, but many get it done and I will be one of those many.Those many few Hispanics that achieve the goals while juggling life's hardships. Becoming a father at the age of seventeen is a difficult challenge that I am working on. Trying to be the best father that I can possibly be while juggling school to become the doctor I want so I can aid those in need is difficult. But I'm not the type that gives up. I make time for my three month old son. Diaper changes take on average fifteen minutes, because we play and "talk". Interacting with my child is a priority to me.While also keeping up with my grades and working 40-50 hours a week in order to buy his needs. Matthias wasn't brought here to me to stop me from accomplishing my goal. He came into this world to drive me closer to it. Shadowing a cardiovascular heart surgeon at my local hospital and helping interpret for families lacking the ability to speak English has satisfied me in knowing I'm doing what I can to help people in my community. Having the honor to shadow and experience heart surgery is amazing and I feel I am preparing myself for what is to come down my path. I work very hard, I don't give up, when I fall, I scrape off the dirt and keep on running. One day, when you Google my name, it will appear as Dr.Christian Sotelo M.D.OB/GYN NG J c I was born in Denton, Texas, the middle girl in three children. But my father was unable to get a job, and my mother was unable to support us without documentation to work. So, when I was six months old, we moved back to our small town in Hidalgo, Mexico where we stayed until I was eight years old. When we came back to Texas, I was placed in a second grade classroom. I didn't speak any English, not a single word. I remember feeling so scared, even awkward. However, my bi-lingual teacher gave me all the support that I could ever want or hope to get. She helped me reach my goal to learn how to speak and write and, in doing that, she changed my life. We didn't have a lot of money growing up. My parents don't have a lot of education. Neither one of them went to school past the sixth grade. But they taught my brother, my sister and me the most important things in life. They taught us education is important. They taught us to appreciate everything my parents and my family gave me. Now, I'm going to graduate, and I have thought a lot about my goals. I want to do for other students what my ESL teacher did for me. I want to help students who are in the same situation that I was in when I was in school. I want to be a K-3 grade bilingual teacher. I'm in a program at the Advance Technology Complex called "Ready, Set, Teach". I have been in this program for two years, and I love teaching the kids. I'm also involved in an organization called "Mujeres Con Suenos" where we have done fundraisers, community services and have helped different schools with different activities. I've also volunteered helping pre-schoolers and tutored older students who are still learning English. Getting this scholarship will help me reach all my goals and become a successful person in the future. I will help students become more outstanding in the future and also help them reach their goals, the same way I reached mine. Lucerito Soberanes Ryan High School March 11, 2011 RAuL robe-apes zoa "Life--the upmost important thing", "Success—the main idea of life." This is my philosophy--I have the opportunity, and I am going to make my dreams come true. My family and I arrived from Hidalgo, Mexico four years ago. We came with the idea that I could get a better education, the one my parents never had the opportunity to get. Both of my parents haven't even completed elementary education. I also have an older brother and a sister. My brother graduated as an engineer two years ago in Mexico, and my sister graduated from high school last year. At the moment she is unsure of what career path to take. Four years ago my life changed, I realized I had a huge obstacle to overcome. I had to learn a new way to communicate in a new language. It was a new world to me, a world that made me feel stifled and unintelligent. I did not even know how to say a simple word in English when I first came to the US. Gradually I learned the basics of the English language, enough to defend myself. Today I am proud to be bilingual and biliterate. I am sure that being bilingual and biliterate will serve me to become a better and qualified professional. Through community service I learned the value and satisfaction of hard work and serving others. There is no better satisfaction than to hear an elder person say "Thank you, I really appreciate what you did for me." Working at Good Samaritan Society, an assisted living community has made me more compassionate and kind, and taught values that are going to last and help me for the rest of my life. Having worked with the elderly has also helped me better appreciate my health and given me a greater measure of respect for the others. Although my career goals are not to work with the elderly, the lessons I learned from them will serve me well as I pursue a career as a computer engineer. I plan to seek a career in the field of engineering because I am very talented in math. I believe I would be very successful in this field because math and technology is something that I really enjoy doing. One of the most important achivements in my life has been obtaining a certificate of recognition for helping the Automotive Technology team at the Advanced Technology Complex build an electric dragster which broke the world record on October 30, 2010. 1 do not want what happened to my sister happen to me. By the time I graduate from high school next year, I want to have a clear direction of what my life's path will be. In order to accomplish this, I need to rely on the help of organizations like yours to help me fulfill my goals and dreams of getting a college education. Without your financial assistance my aspirations will be in vain. I'm requesting a scholarship that would help me pay for my college education. If you help accomplish my dream, you will not regret your decision, because I will work very hard to show my appreciation. To The Scholarship Committee, My Name is Alicia Marie Strickland and 1 would like to be considered for a scholarship to help me attend college. My goal is to become a certified Radiologist,which means four years of college before entering medical school for the remainder. 1 am a senior at Billy Ryan High School with a grade point average of 3.5. 1 have taken quite a few advanced placement classes which I hope will give me an edge when I enter the college world which have included: AP Economics, Pre-AP Pre-Calculus, AP US Government, Pre-AP Latin II, Pre-AP English I & 11, AP U.S. History, AP World History, Pre-AP World Geography, Health Science Technology Education I, II, & III. I am currently active with the Ryan High School Student Council where I have been involved in all of the school dances, props, and activities associated with each, I volunteer at the local animal shelter each week and play with the animals so that they will always feel loved, I've been a student teacher for Ms. Hunt at Ryan High School at which time I graded and filed papers or whatever was asked of me, I am currently a volunteer at Ginnings Elementary where I meet with a student and we've made Christmas cookies, played outside, and read books, I've attended a summer MASH camp at Amarillo Health Education Center for medical experience in Canyon,TX with the local college medical coordinators, I was a volunteer for the Sena en el Bario with the League of United Latin American Citizens local council where we made Thanksgiving boxes for Denton families and handed them out at the Denton Area Teachers Credit Union parking lot, I worked during the summer for the Denton County Sheriff's Department's Sting Operation where I would be checking businesses that might be selling tobacco products to minors, I volunteered for Denton's Great American Clean Up to make sure that the City of Denton looked it's very best, I helped with a Thanksgiving Food Drive where I spent the day in front of Kroger asking for donations and then gave those donations to the local food bank, and I am an active member of the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Denton. I've applied to Texas Woman's University in Denton for my bachelor's degree, and then I plan on attending the University of Texas at San Antonio for my medical degree. My Mom attended TWU, my Grandmother and Second-Aunt both graduated from TWU, so of course I have a great attachment to this college. 1 really hope you can see the goals that I have set are real and all I need is a little help to get me to where I want to go. I will assist with LULAC sponsored events whenever I can and would love to be a part of this exciting group for young students and adults. Thank you! �uVC/7INT C Adrian Zambrana 3-08-11 Personal Essay I really enjoy psychology so I am very willing and focused on learning more about this subject and hopefully one day being able to enter the field. I never knew I would express so much passion in psychology until I took the actual class in High School. I learned much not only about the subject itself but also about myself.Throughout this course I learned that studying psychology really seems to interest me and that I would love to pursue a career within this field. What really interests me most about psychology is the study of the brain and also psychotherapy. Recently I have noticed that many of my friends will come up to me for advice or for some sort of help whenever they are facing problems.Throughout the experiences and talks that my friends and I have shared, I noticed that I really enjoy listening to people and trying my best to help them out. I really like to help people out with their problems because it not only helps them out but they too might have learned something from our experience and will hopefully carry on these traits to one day help others. I also really like to listen and help other people out because it not only gives me experience but it also makes me feel like I really have a shot at one day entering the field of psychology.As far as psychology goes and as much as I would really like to learn more about this fascinating subject,what has always interested me would be world history and the study of our culture around the world. I would really like to get involved in this field and someday travel the world, learning and discovering more about our people and our past. I am still undecided on what I would like to take in college because science and astronomy really seems to interest me but I am very sure that I would really like to go for a double major in both the field of psychology and geography. These two subjects are what I am best at so it would be at my best bets to pursue a career within these fields. I have always received high grades in all my history classes and I am even taking two AP classes for my history credit this year. I also had good grades in psychology and am now taking sociology which quite frankly I regret because it would have been at a much greater advantage to take AP-psychology. Although sociology doesn't seem to interest me as much as psychology, I am still reading books and learning about our society and human development on my own. I am currently a senior at Guyer High School and I am looking forward to going to NCTC this year and later on transferring over to UNT but I would really appreciate some financial help so that I can be able to pursue my career and my dreams.As far as community service goes,to be quite honest I really have not done much and this I regret because it could have really helped me out but now I am putting all my efforts into not only improving much in school but also learning psychology on my own while I am not in school. I am putting great efforts to enhance my intelligence and experience over psychology, I even J t asked a friend of mine to let me borrow his college textbook over psychology. So as far as my pursue for a career in psychology goes I am also picking up on science to settle my personal debate on whether I would like my second major to be involved with history or science. I have very high standards for myself and I am very willing to learn more about these fields but I would really appreciate some financial aid to help me go to college and get involved with these careers. I hope to one day have a double major and I am willing to give up everything I have and give it my best shot. LULAC SHOLARSHIP ESSAY - Christian Velasco I have been accepted to the University of North Texas. I plan to pursue a study of architecture. I was first drawn to this field when I was in an Art class. I loved the freedom to think for myself and be creative. I enjoyed the assignments where we created buildings and landscapes. I liked making the blueprints to what would become things that people would marvel at. I believe the world could use a little more beauty in its land and cities. I believe I could be a tool to make this happen. If I were to -Secure thz fund,n, I'd like to follow such major,and I believe I would not only succeed in such studies but also enjoy them greatly. Although I have a passion and a desire to attend a college to further my learning I have a problem that has affected my family and my life. My family was separated when I was very young and since then my mother has had to take care of me and my sister with no outside help. We've never had a lot of money and have always had financial hardship. I've witnessed first hand the difficulties of not having a college level education and how hard it's been on my mother and my family. Because of the troubles of normal finances my mother broke down,financially unable to support us any longer. She could no longer take care of my sister and I and could not mentally care for others.Since August of 2010 my mother has been in a Shelter in Dallas Texas. My sister and I now live with friends and are considered homeless. I was lucky in the aspect that I can continue high school by living with friends. I believe this would not have transpired if my mother had had a college degree. I would like to change the situation for them and myself,by attending a university and becoming successful. I do not have the finances to allow this to happen and would greatly need assistance to make this dream a reality. Because of this situation I have been working at a job after school and on the weekends since this happened to support myself and my sister. I also was forced to quit the football team so that I would have time for work and to keep up mu studies in school. I've had little to no time to attend community service activities. I did have an opportunity to help feed people at a homeless shelter on Thanksgiving Day. I have a passion to give back to people that are in the same situations I've been in. I would gladly sign up for any and all community services that I would be given.

I have always wanted to go to UT Austin, and around the time right before we found out that I was receiving a LULAC scholarship, my parents didn't know if they would be financially able to send me there.

It was to my surprise to have received this scholarship.This kind gift that I was given will help me get through the college hardships and achieve my dreams. With this scholarship I will be able to buy four books that I would have otherwise not have been able to afford. My parents try their hardest to raise us and so they were heartbroken when they realized the college expense but when they heard I had received a scholarship their hearts sank with gratitude and their faces expressed happiness with tears that moved me as they saw me walk up to the stage.That moment is something that I will forever be grateful for and something that was possible thanks to my donors. This kind gift has opened up a path to success therefore my gratitude to have received this opportunity is unexceptionable. I will begin my studies at the University of North Texas, I will pursue a degree in math and bilingual to become a teacher, and once I graduate I too will fall in the steps of my donors and will help others open a path to success. I feel so fortunate to have this opportunity and such generosity, my prayers and thoughts will go for the well being of the LULAC COUNCIL and for your family, Dr. Glenda Harris. Thank you for opening the path of success for me, it will forever be appreciated and never forgotten, I will make you proud.

BACKGROUND The LULAC National Educational Service Centers, Inc. (LNESC)was established in 1973 as a separate 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation by LULAC. LNESC's primary function is to provide educational programs for Hispanics and other youth. The LULAC National Scholarship Fund (LNSF)was established in 1975 to provide scholarships to Hispanic students attending colleges and universities. Under the LNSF program, local LULAC Councils raise scholarship monies in their communities and LNESC supplements the money raised by the councils'efforts with funds raised from corporations and individual donors. This partnership enables both parties to maximize the impact of their scholarship efforts in the Hispanic community, II. OPERATING PRINCIPLES A. Partnerships: The LNSF program seeks to develop collaboration between the Hispanic community, the business community and students to promote excellence in education. Under the LNSF "Partnership" concept, LNESC supplements scholarship funds submitted to it by LULAC Councils which: 1. Endorse the goals and objectives of the LULAC National Scholarship Fund. 2, Demonstrate a commitment to local scholarship programs by raising funds from within their communities. 3. Provide scholarships to deserving college bound students. Funds raised for the LNSF program by LNESC will be allocated proportionately among the LULAC Councils participating in the LNSF program. B. Participation: Participation in LNSF is open to LULAC Councils in good standing as determined exclusively by the LULAC National Office.Any question or dispute regarding the standing of a LULAC Council will be determined by LULAC National with no input or opinion being expressed by LNESC. C. Qualifying Funds: 1. Funds raised locally and deposited with LNSF within the required time(by March 1st)will be considered in determining the amount of supplemental funds to be allocated to the Council. All Councils submitting funds by the deadline receive the same supplementation rate. 2, Funds must be raised directly by the participating LULAC Council from local sources. Funds raised by third parties (including schools and colleges)and funds raised from national corporations and their branch offices will not be supplemented. 3. Funds raised from sources which restrict awards to a select group of students will not be supplemented. The Council's selection process must be open to any eligible Hispanic student in the Council's local community. 4. An existing council will be allowed to submit no more than $18,000 to LNSF for supplemental funding per school year. First time councils will only be allowed$6,000 per school year. D. Awards: 1. Councils will select recipients in accordance with the requirements listed in the LNSF Student Application,,.,,. 2. Applicants are eligible for three types of scholarship awards: National Scholastic Achievement Awards, Honors Awards, and General Award. The criteria for each are as follows: National Scholastic Achievement Awards($2,000) Criteria for Entering Freshmen: Student must be enrolled full-time in a college or university and have a GPA of 3.5 or better on a 4.0 scale or equivalent;AND Student must also have scored 29 or higher on the ACT test,or 1350 or higher on the SAT test.

BACKGROUND The LULAC National Educational Service Centers, Inc. (LNESC)was established in 1973 as a separate 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation by LULAC. LNESC's primary function is to provide educational programs for Hispanics and other youth. The LULAC National Scholarship Fund(LNSF)was established in 1975 to provide scholarships to Hispanic students attending colleges and universities. Under the LNSF program, local LULAC Councils raise scholarship monies in their communities and LNESC supplements the money raised by the councils'efforts with funds raised from corporations and individual donors. This partnership enables both parties to maximize the impact of their scholarship efforts in the Hispanic community. II. OPERATING PRINCIPLES A. Partnerships: The LNSF program seeks to develop collaboration between the Hispanic community, the business community and students to promote excellence in education. Under the LNSF "Partnership" concept, LNESC supplements scholarship funds submitted to it by LULAC Councils which: 1. Endorse the goals and objectives of the LULAC National Scholarship Fund. 2. Demonstrate a commitment to local scholarship programs by raising funds from within their communities. 3. Provide scholarships to deserving college bound students. Funds raised for the LNSF program by LNESC will be allocated proportionately among the LULAC Councils participating in the LNSF program. B. Participation: Participation in LNSF is open to LULAC Councils in good standing as determined exclusively by the LULAC National Office.Any question or dispute regarding the standing of a LULAC Council will be determined by LULAC National with no input or opinion being expressed by LNESC. C. Qualifying Funds: 1. Funds raised locally and deposited with LNSF within the required time (by March 1st)will be considered in determining the amount of supplemental funds to be allocated to the Council. All Councils submitting funds by the deadline receive the same supplementation rate. 2. Funds must be raised directly by the participating LULAC Council from local sources. Funds raised by third parties (including schools and colleges)and funds raised from national corporations and their branch offices will not be supplemented. 3. Funds raised from sources which restrict awards to a select group of students will not be supplemented. The Council's selection process must be open to any eligible Hispanic student in the Council's local community. 4. An existing council will be allowed to submit no more than $18,000 to LNSF for supplemental funding per school year. First time councils will only be allowed$6,000 per school year. D. Awards: 1. Councils will select recipients in accordance with the requirements listed in the LNSF Student Application., 2.

The LNESC Scholarship Committee will notify the participating LULAC Council of the specific amount of the supplementation by April 1. The Council should set the number and amount of its scholarship awards to equal the council funds plus the national supplemental amount.

After stressful contemplation and much reluctance I came to the conclusion that I will enter college with the goal of becoming a doctor. When I came to this conclusion I immediately signed up for rotations at the Presbyterian Hospital in Denton,Texas to make sure that I was making the right decision. I go around job shadowing a health care professional in different areas of the hospital... and let me tell you, it has been quite an eye opener! In each rotation I've been extremely critical in my judgment; I've either hated or loved each department. I've learned quite a bit about myself and the medical field: old people are the sweetest creatures alive but I can't deal with them; patients are puzzles waiting to be solved (sorry if that sounds a bit morbid); people are extremely needy; doctors are treated like superstars; I work well under pressure; and blood doesn't faze me the slightest bit. Doing rotations at the hospital has enlightened me. I've figured out that I really do want to be a doctor. I can actually close my eyes and can envision myself in that esteemed position in which I saw in the hospital. With all of my experiences in mind, I came to the conclusion that I will attend four years at Texas Tech University majoring in premed or biomedical engineering then go to medical school until I obtain a professional degree. My ambition is to become a doctor and I will stop at nothing to fulfill this goal. Z�(2 I can't remember a date when my ultimate goal wasn't to be a pediatrician. I'm not a student going into college without knowing what I want. Since I was six the idea of being a doctor and helping people has consumed my mind, it has been my drive to succeed, I know the moment I get my degree the feeling of success will overrule every sense, and consume every one of my thoughts. My inspiration was sparked at a doctor's appointment,even at a young age the encounters with my pediatrician were a learning experience that helped revalidate my drive. Being the first in my family to go to high school in the United States, and the first to go to college, high school was never just a walk in the park. I missed out on many opportunities and wasn't aware of things my fellow classmates knew. In many ways others kids in school had an advantage, and even though I wasn't involved in many things that could have helped me, I kept trying and did well in what I was a part of. Last year math was challenging, I didn't understand many of the topics we covered, so every day I would wake up early and go to tutorials so that my teacher could explain. I would stay after school every day to make sure that I was doing things correctly on test and quizzes, and even when I didn't do great on things I would be in Mr. Roberts class before and after school to figure out what I did wrong and retake grades I wasn't content with. I know life isn't always easy and to get what you want and achieve your idea of success you must work extremely hard, and have a passion for what you do.That's a moral my parents tried to make me see at a young age, not everything is going to be given to you if I want something I have to go after it and work hard to get it. Personal Statement Watching my dad work his way up in the medical field has inspired me to pursue a career as a nurse. Since my dad did not go to college, he took a job in which he assembled medical equipment and from there he worked his way up.Now two decades later,he is the senior field representative of the southwest region for Stryker Communications. Being a first generation college student motivates me to work harder and dream bigger. My dad constantly reminds me about the importance of having an education. He considers himself lucky to be where he is and have the job he has because most people without a college degree do not have the opportunity to get as far as he did. He pushes me to get good grades and further my education so I will not have to struggle as much as he did. I want to graduate from college and make my parents proud by proving to them that they have been inspirational to me and that I have a promising future ahead of me. Getting a college degree and becoming a nurse is not solely about pleasing my parents. I have always known that I wanted to be involved in the medical field. I find it amusing to reflect back to when I was a little girl, my sisters always wanted to play house and teacher and I would pout and throw a fit until we played doctor. As time went on, I began exploring my career options outside of medicine, but somehow I kept coming back to the medical field. I wanted to be the craziest things, from a marriage therapist to a corrections officer. I even took a law enforcement class and quickly realized that law enforcement was not the career path for me (something about dangerous convicts and handling weapons made it easier to change my mind). The first time I volunteered at the hospital I made up my mind that I wanted to do nursing. I had the opportunity to interact with all the nurses by getting their perspectives as well as getting a firsthand experience of what a nurse does. I learned how to do everything from working reception and filing paperwork to the hands on aspect of the job. Another great experience that has drawn me closer to nursing has been job shadowing at a veterinarians clinic. Although veterinary medicine is not what I plan on pursuing, it has given me the opportunity to work closely to a veterinarian and observe the emergency aspect of the medical field. My personal favorite part of the experience was to be able to sit in on emergency surgeries. I love the fast paced environment and adrenaline that the medical field provides and I hope that one day I will be able to be a contribution to it. &eAcieL.k 'l AMWtZ �12 When I was in 3rd grade, my parents put me in piano lessons. I was not extremely thrilled at the time, but I didn't realize the door they had opened for me. Although I was not necessarily a prodigy, I knew that I was fascinated with music. In 5th grade, I began playing viola and soon realized I had a gift for music, and that I wanted to explore it more. In 7th, I picked up guitar and began playing in the jazz band and writing songs very shortly afterwards. Drums didn't come until high school, but I now play in several semi-professional bands on drums. I am also currently the lead guitarist in The Denton High School Lab Band 1 as well as principal violist in the Denton High School Chamber Orchestra. In my free time I enjoy listening to, studying, recording and composing music. Music is my life. I had decided early on in high school that I didn't want to pursue a career in music. I did not like the idea of relying on the gift of music to put food on the table, and I feared that studying music in college could ruin music for me. I began to explore my other interests such as entrepreneurship, but as time passed I began to realize that 1 would not be happy doing anything other than what I love. I also knew, though, that I didn't want to professionally perform or teach, which was a problem since the majority of music majors end up doing one of these things. So, I began to try and discover other musical options. Luckily for me, I also have another interest, and it's also a useful one. I started showing signs of a business man at a very young age, trying to figure out ways to make money and being a very good negotiator. I have also had a lot of experience recording and producing music, organizing shows, and working with musical equipment. So, decided to put these two things together, and study music industry. With the education I hope to receive from either Loyola University in New Orleans, University of North Texas, or The University of Arizona. It is my goal to have an exciting and fulfilling career in the music industry. This could lead me to become a record producer, a professional sound guy, a commercial composer, or even a small business owner. I have been very active in the community, and a lot of the community service I have been involved in has involved music. 1 played in my church orchestra every week for over 4 years as well as led the youth praise band which plays every Wednesday. I play drums for a Christian rock band called Pages, and we've played in many charity events such as Imagine No Malaria, at the Denton State School, and in several other churches and events around Denton and Dallas. I have played music in many nursing homes, both with a volunteer orchestra as well as with an acoustic band. 1 currently run sound and act as a "fill in guy" for the Asbury House Band, which leads worship every Sunday. The skills and knowledge I have gained by participating in these services has greatly prepared me for my musical future, both short term and long term. Wherever my pursuit of a musical career takes me, I hope to have a sense of fulfillment, and I hope to never loose sight of what the gift of music really is. With your help, I can receive an education which will lead me to such a career. N*mAN MC6 2 0l2 Within the next six to seven years I will accomplish some of the greatest goals of my lifetime. After my high school graduation,this June, I hope to head down south to College Station to continue my academic career.At Texas A&M University I plan to study kinesiology and Pre-Physical Therapy. For the past six years of my life I have found great interest in the human body and how it works during physical activities, so I thought what is more perfect than having a degree in something I already spend a lot of time learning about and practicing.While studying at A&M I also want to continue to expand my knowledge in Spanish. For the past four years I have taken advantage of the Spanish courses I have been offered and so far they have paid off.That is something I feel strongly about and learning those languages can also open eyes to situations not seen before. For example in my recent past I have been able to break a communication barrier with the people I work with in the community and at my job because of the amount of Spanish I know and am able to produce. I am almost bilingual;therefore, 1 hope to be fluent before my four years are up at A&M.After I graduate from college, I plan to attend a Physical Therapy School in either Dallas or Galveston, which will take about two years to complete. Once I have graduated from PT school I want to join a bilingual practice somewhere in Texas. I feel with ability to speak two languages I will be able to expand my opportunities and open my business to more people without having to worry about a language barrier. acme d Oruro ZUl2 Personal Essay My high school experience has been a key component in accomplishing my goals. Being part of a soccer team has taught me that working together makes it easier to accomplish a goal. This sport has taught me to work in a group, be competitive and have fun as well. I was able to be a leader through my actions on and off the field.Although soccer has been a big part of my life, it is not the only activity that I have been involved in. Being accepted into The National Honor Society hasmade me realize that community service is not just about doing something for yourself, but to make an impact in your community and others. Through NHS I have had many opportunities to participate in service projects that allowed me to further my interest in engineering. Participating in NHS has taught me that helping around the comm unityth rough different services is beneficial in gaining experience for future endeavors. Being involved in soccer and NHS were critical in guiding me through school. The biggest influence however has been Upward Bound. Upward Bound is a program that assists students in completing high school and pursuing a post-secondary education. My experience in Upward Bound has been an exciting one. It has allowed me to compete academically with other schoolsnearby. This program has helped me become more social and a leader by telling the younger members about my experiences.Upward Bound has showed me first-hand what college life would be like. They took me step by step through the college application process and helped me choose the career I would pursue. All these experiences have led me to pursue a career in engineering so as to better the world around me and further my education in order to better myself. OCTO e Mu Ro Zo l 2 PERSONAL ESSAY Please type or print neatly a statement describing the personal&career goals your studies are leading to. In addition, please describe any community service activities that you have lead or participated in that relate to your future personal and career goals. Figuratively speaking, I consider myself to be a scientist, someone who seeks to gain a better understanding of his surroundings through problem solving and research.As such, I have decided to one day become a doctor to not only use my medical knowledge to identify physiological conditions and diseases but also directly work with patients. Consequently, I have participated in mostly medical community service activities to better familiarize myself with the field. I originally sought to become a doctor to learn about the workings of the human body,not caring much for interacting with patients. Indeed, I considered myself an introvert, avoiding human contact whenever possible. However,I eventually developed a change of heart after reading self-motivational books by authors such as Dale Carnegie.Now,as a future physician, I look forward to improving my social skills while concurrently improving patients'lives. Of course, still maintaining my desire to learn a priority, I hope to specialize in either neurology or pathology.Appropriately, both fields would require me to constantly backtrack and apply different methodical approaches to be successful,much like a puzzle would. Sure,my brain would be challenged,but I could ask for nothing more as a scientist at heart. Most of my medical community service involvement has taken place through my school's Health Occupations Students of America chapter and the local hospital.Among the activities I've partaken in as a HOSA member are working with the elderly at a local nursing home and most recently helping host a blood drive at my school.At the local hospital,I earned roughly fifty hours of service over the last summer shadowing nurses and helping them attend to patients. Though the path to becoming a doctor will surely be tough, I am confident that I will successfully navigate through it. f Applicant's signature required.

My studies are what would get me places in life. With education comes success and power. My favorite class is aquatic science.We study about the different species of fish, mammals, and plants that live in the ocean. My studies in this class have lead me to make personal goals like never giving up on school until I have at least a masters degree.As for my career goals, I would love to work with marine animals. I hope to major in marine biology or zoology. I plan on attending the University of North Texas for two years,then transferring to Texas A&M at Galveston or Corpus Christi because it has a small campus, and it is located on the coast which is a great place for hands on learning. I first realized that I wanted to be a Marine Biologist/Zoologist when I was reading a book about sea animals to a group of fourth graders at Newton Rayzor Elementary School. As I read the page about jellyfish, a student asked me if I knew how jellyfish were born. I had absolutely no clue so, I went and asked my aquatic science teacher. He told me that they release sperm and eggs into the water and they fertilize externally. Then they grow from a polyp which is like a tower of jellyfish,and baby jellyfish bud off the polyp in a fashion similar to the unstacking of stacked cups. I told the kids my discovery and they were mystified of the idea that an animal could do that. Ever since that moment I knew I wanted to spend my college years studying sea animals. I still enjoy going to Newton Rayzor Elementary and playing with the kids or reading to them. I never know what new thing I might learn from them. If it wasn't for them I might not have discovered my passion for marine animals. WR6A*I rA Nt uNo� 2 D(2 LULAC Essay I have known since I was about five years old that I wanted to go to college. At five I wanted to be an astronaut. At eleven I wanted to be a crime scene investigator like those on CSI: Miami. It probably wasn't until I turned fifteen that I knew that I wanted to be a dentist. From that point on I have done as much as possible to plan my life around that goal. There isn't much one can do as a freshman or sophomore in high school to really plan for your future. I somehow managed to make my prior statement false. I would regularly go online and look for schools that had dental school, as well as find out which one was farthest from home. I found out that you either have to take a Pre-Dentistry, biology, or chemistry major. Knowing that I detest chemistry, I realized that it was out of the question. So I decided to take biology,just in case I liked something down that field. So in preparation for that I am taking AP Biology. My dream school is Baylor University, in Waco, TX. Unfortunately the tuition is expensive, so I have decided that UNT is a wonderful college to attend. After finishing my biology major at UNT, in 2016, I would then apply to Baylor's Dental School here in Dallas. Those are the long-term goals for my career at the moment. So right about know I'm thinking in four months I am going to college. Then this huge avalanche of thoughts starts rolling. How do I want to live my life? With whom do I want to live the rest of my life with? Do I even want children? Eventually I realized that I don't need to make those decisions right at this moment. But what I do realized is that no matter what I want to stay close to my faith. Being a Cradle-Catholic,the Catholic Church has been that one constant in my life. So it's something that I can turn too to help me decide those unanswered questions. To remain involved in the church I have done a number of activities. I have been to the soup kitchen about two or three times, and helped prepare a meal for those who have less than I do. I have also been to three retreats to dwell deeper into my faith. Now I have been given the privilege of being on the ACTS Teen Team, which prepares the summer retreat. Hopefully all of this strengthens my bond to my faith so as to not lose it. My goals right now seem almost unreal considering that they are so far off. But I know that in a couple of months they will start to become very real. School and life sometimes seem to drag on and have no meaning, but that's why I have my goals to fuel me through the dull days. �(Z I remember wanting to be an orthodontist and a veterinarian when I was younger. Then again, I remember wanting to be a magician. I realized that I could never really decide what I wanted to become. Being quiet, I knew a leadership position was not an option,but as high school came around I also knew it was time to decide what I was meant to be. During the summer of 2010 is when God helped me decide. I volunteered in a children's Bible camp helping children expand their faith; however, it was when I was assigned to take care of babies when I realized I was meant to work with them. Babies are so reliant on adults like me to live; I had to help them. In order to do that, I needed to become a leader. I didn't know it then,but being in Fillies has helped me in being that leader. I had never auditioned for anything in my life,but when I saw that drill team I was determined to make it, and I did. In helping girls and by advancing to Social Officer, a competitive position where only five girls can be chosen, I became a leader and the responsibility that comes with that position has made me a better one. Finally, I knew what I was meant to do when I went to the Advanced Technology Complex for a Health Science class. There, I got the opportunity to explore areas of Presbyterian Hospital,including Labor and Delivery, where I witnessed a birth. I couldn't believe that miracle of God, so helpless. That is when I realized I wanted to work not only with babies,but newborns. I will help them,especially when they are sick. My purpose is to be a leader for them. JCAWCFER Lip- `L- )VA VA 2o1'i- Ana Teresa Gonzalez 2412 In four to five years after earning my Bachelors degree, I want to possibly pursue a Masters degree in engineering. If not, I want to be working with an employer where I can increasingly move up in position and utilize my skills to take on challenges and use my knowledge from college to solve problems and help out my community. Being the President of Student Council has extended my role in being a leader at my school. I've helped lead functions at my school such as freshman fish camp, Project Adoption, Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Red Ribbon Week, Relay for Life at my school, and any other school related function. Outside of school, I am involved in Reading for Success, being a mentor at Ginnings Elementary school every Wednesday, helping out with my church, and going to Sterling House, which is a retirement home. These activities have helped me become more responsible and more reliable with any task I am given. Clubs that I am or have been involved in are National Honor Society, 1-tech, Key Club, and HOSA. 1-tech is an engineering/drafting club that fortifies my knowledge of engineering by having me do work outside of school that relates to this field. National Honor Society recognizes the top students for each class. Being a part of this group further helps me to interact with students that are in most of my classes and help me become a better student by being with students that will have a positive influence on me. These clubs and service activities are benefiting because not only does it enrich my school participation with every aspect of every club, but it helps me to achieve every task I am given. These short-term goals for myself help me.to.enforce and stabilize long-term goals. One has to start small to become big. I intend to have a bright future for myself through the hard work I have put in my whole life. Success cannot just be given to someone. Through the hard work I have put in I will attend college and achieve the goals I have. 5 9 0 0 0 1 In college I plan to obtain a degree in kinesiology.With this degree my goal is to become a soccer coach and athletic trainer. It has always been a dream of mine to go into a field that I enjoy and see myself doing for the rest of my life. I have become very involved in the soccer community over the years as a player, referee, and a coach. I started playing soccer when I was four years old and have played all fourteen years since. I know what a major influence soccer has had on my life. It allowed me to be part of a team and develop qualities such as leadership, responsibility, and dedication. Soccer has had such a positive impact on my life. My goal is to spread this experience to others. I have been given the opportunity to coach my own, under six, boys'team. It has been amazing to see my players' progress over the two years that I have coached them.They now know the rules of the game and to play not only for themselves, but each other as well. One goal of mine is to have a huge impact on their lives. I want my players, including those in the future,to look at me as someone who has inspired them like my coaches inspired me. I want to continue coaching because of how rewarding it is. Recently, I have been offered my first job as a coach of my own academy team. It is very exciting to get my foot in the door at such a young age. This opportunity makes me believe that I could make my dream of being a coach for the rest of my life a reality. Written by: cxteo Danielle Caro 2p12 5-�e hanj"e AV ao� The majority of high school I found my time gaining as much knowledge and focusing on classes I love; my technology courses Architecture and Accounting. I would never imagine myself getting so passionate about both classes the way I am now.Three years ago as a sophomore in high school I started getting involved in the clubs within the class like UIL for Accounting and I-TECH. Since I was in the accounting class and because I love math that's the reason I joined the UIL team. I tried but it was difficult at first because it builds up to itself. I started getting an understanding of it, and have been in the team for the past three years. That's the reason I would like to expand my knowledge by majoring in accounting. In the other hand I-TECH was different it wasn't a small team like accounting this was a variety of careers like engineering, architecture, wood shop etc... people that had a common interest like yourself and you wouldn't feel left out. I worked from morning to night on multiple houses at a time. It wasn't the easiest thing that you could learn from one day to the other.Therefore the amount of time I've dedicated these past three years in high school has made me like what I do more and more each day.Till one day last year I woke up and told myself this is what I want to do for a living. I don't want to be like those people out there in the world waking up going to work because they have to not because they love it and are just waiting for when it's time to come back home. One main reason of my decision and why I love my classes the way I do it's because of my teachers and mentors.The way they're passionate about what they teach and know how to make students enjoy the class as well.They have inspired me to do my best and challenged my abilities in the class. My plans after high school is go to either TWU or UNT herein Denton, TX. and get my basics done and start on my major for accounting. Since neither of those two colleges have architecture as a major I will transfer after two years to another college that has architecture,so I can double major.There's no regret that the knowledge I've learn in high school through my teachers has helped me to grow as a better person and student so that later in life I can be successful. 1AJ-aTG Arnaldo Frias "1 Z Growing up, Education has always been one of the most important things in my life. My parents never really had the opportunity to actually get a college education, they both were the oldest amongst their family. Instead of getting their education, they were basically forced to work, in order to help support their family. My parents are great people, but above all they are hard workers. One of the most important things that I have taken from them is "hard work pays off." Seeing my parents make something out of nothing really inspired me to work hard in everything I do, including the most important education. Since I was a little kid, I have always been comfortable around people. Involved in team sports, church, and school really helped shaped me into the person I am today. I have always been good at socializing with everyone. I wish to pursue a career in social psychology. I am a great listener. Above all it has always been my best interest to help people, especially those in need. I can see myself being very successful in the counseling department. I have always been interested in this field, I would always ask myself how people influence, think, and relate to one another. Throughout my high school career I have taken classes to prepare myself for my career goal, taking AP Psychology and Sociology. Friends would always come to me if they ever needed advice, I was always there for them no matter the situation. I strongly feel that it is my life's meaning to help people. Helping people is what I love doing. I am very interested in solving problems in the real world, searching for ways to help encourage people, and even provide advice for those who are clueless or lost and are looking for guidance. ZPGoof Z0t2 March 9, 2012 To the members of the LULAC Committee: In 2005, I came to the United States with my father, mother and two brothers. I was eleven years old. We came here because our life in Hidalgo, Mexico was very difficult, and my parents dreamed of a better future for my brothers and me. I know this is what everyone says, and it was very true with my family. Once we arrived in Denton, my father worked every day. My mother and I made food that we sold to help out in the household. I babysat. My brothers collected cans. Everything was for the new life that was coming. At the time, my brothers were scared and angry, but I told them, "All this work will be worth it one day. Our life will be so much better than it was." But inside, I had my doubts. When I started school, things were even more difficult. I didn't know how to speak English; I didn't even know how to ride the bus! But I listened to my own words and kept on going. And now, here I am, ready to graduate from Ryan High School and begin a new life. I love helping people. My main priority has always been the world and being a registered nurse is the way I see I can make my main contribution. In fact, being an R.N. is my dream. I have been in the Health Science program at the ATC since I was a sophomore, and I've learned so much about the medical field. Not only does the science interest me, I love the contact with the people. One of the brightest moments I experienced was when I witnessed a new mother giving birth to a baby. It was a miracle. Now I'm taking Certified Nursing Assistant classes, and we go on clinical rotation twice a week. Seeing the residents'faces is like seeing sunshine. Giving showers, taking vital signs, doing activities and making sure they're in clean and comfortable clothing makes my day perfect. I can only imagine what it will be like to help people as an actual registered nurse. Being part of the Hispanic community has always been important to me, as well. A few people helped my family when we first came here, and I always felt I should help others, in return. For three years, I was in Mujeres Con Suenos, a service organization for Hispanic girls at Ryan High School. This club has given me the opportunity to help elementary school children, to volunteer for different Hispanic festivals, to meet local Hispanic entrepreneurs and to feel part of a larger community of my people. I would have liked to join other clubs but didn't really have the time. My family is also important to me and, for the last two years, I've been working 35 hours a week so that I can help with the bills in the house. It's not so bad; I've been able to keep my grades B+ in HSTE and other major classes but didn't have the time to work and participate in clubs, too. I will go to college and become an R.N., no matter how long it takes me. I will also continue to work and try to save money for college tuition when I can, but a scholarship from LULAC would mean so much to me. Not only would the extra help be greatly appreciated and allow me to maybe work a little less while I focus on my classes, it would also be an honor to know that I'm recognized by members of the Hispanic community. I hope you will consider me for this honor, and thank you for reading my application.
