Personal Narrative: My Educational Leadership Journey
I am Michelle Wiegand, and currently in my seventeenth year of education. My present role is sixth grade literacy at South Tama Middle School, where I have been for four years. School Law and Mandates is my last class for my Ed Leadership adventure; there are also a few internships remaining.

As of right now, I am not ready to leave the classroom. When I am ready to leave, curriculum or leadership at any level interests me; elementary or middle school would be my firsts thoughts. I am comfortable with all three levels, but each level has its positives. When I leave the class, depending on where I am in my life, it will depend on which unique challenges I would be ready to take on at that time.

Throughout my Ed Leadership journey, the cohort

    The reason my academics aren’t going well as you or I would like is because of the several family issues I’ve had to face during my high school career. It began my Sophomore year, I found out my mom needed surgery in her arm so the chances of her cancer spreading would be reduced. I was under a great deal of stress worrying about my mother, taking care of my four siblings making sure they knew everything was going to be okay, even though I wasn’t sure myself. It was all up to me; while my other brother worked to help with bills, my mom being in the hospital, and my dad working. Taking care of my siblings consisted of cooking, homework, cleaning, nightly routine, and putting them to bed. When the work was done it would be around 10 o'clock. It was already tough to buckle down and focus on homework without all the stress. With all this my first semester grade was less than great.…

    Before talking about my history, I have to say that my ancestral history is what prejudiced in my values as a good human being. From generation to generation, my ancestors passed down values such as dignity, respect, honesty and etc. Without them, I have to say that I would not exist today as a good human being. The American cities included in my history are Rocky River and Lakewood. Those two cities are located in Ohio. All my ancestors were born and lived in India. My history will include 3 generations.…

    At a young age, I waited on the benches for my mother to retrieve me from carpool. I observed my peers laughing together as they walked towards the gym for after-school sports. My mother, who soon arrived to find her kindergarten son sitting in solitude, scheduled numerous parent-teacher conferences. She would share her concerns while my teachers assured her that my "individuality" was what attracted friends to me. I had been a leader rather than a follower regardless of the opinion of others, and, to this day, that has remained static. I have evolved from that careless kindergarten leader, to an aspiring college graduate.…

    My educational goals can be said to be broken down into three parts that are really the means to my ends which is the fourth and most important goal. First, Im working on getting good grades in every class, I want to work on having and maintaining a high competitive GPA. My second goal is to get my Bachelors in Political Science in an ideal time frame of two more years. My third goal and one that is out of my hands, one may say, is getting a scholarship.

    My education will never be complete. This knowledge affords me the ability to grow each and every day. It teaches me to question the world and to learn from these questions. I learn through different lenses and circumstances I experience each day. At seventeen, I am nowhere near complete. I am young. I am flawed. I am naïve. What I have learned has led me down different paths in order to achieve different milestones on my own journey. I am strong. I am creative. I am poised...but most importantly I am learning. My education has allowed me to learn about myself, about others, and about the world. I am evolving through the educational process and through the effort of acquiring knowledge. I have no idea what I will learn tomorrow --some days…

Additionally, I enjoy the challenge of working with children who have difficulties in content areas or challenging students who are strong in certain content areas.

    “Reveille, Reveille, Reveille!” reverberated the disembodied voice throughout the barracks. As my eyes shot open, I squinted at my watch and read the time: it was three o’clock in the morning. Sighing, I clambered out of my bunk and prepared for another day of physical and mental torment. Even though I was unaware at the time, the intense environment that I was subjected to while attending the Cadet Leadership Course would push my confidence and leadership ability to new heights.…
