Speech For Admission To UTSA Honors College
Good Morning Mrs. Houser,

I hope that you are doing well today. I am writing to inform you that I was approved for admission to the UTSA Honors College. Because of my Fall Semester grades, which resulted in a 3.8 GPA, I received this honor. So far, my Spring Semester Mid-term grades are all As. I just wanted to let you know that your family support means everything to me.

Again, thank you and I will keep in touch.

Terence Wayne Shaw, II

    Hello, I am so honored to speak in front of all the parents, staff and my fellow students today. Wow guys we made it! These past 3 years have been full of so many memories that I know we’ll never forget. Think all the way back to 6th grade we were always the littlest ones and I remember feeling like a fish out of water. We were terrified of getting lost or being late for class, but excited to have a locker to decorate and change classes each period. It doesn’t seem like that was over 2 years ago at all. We came back in 7th grade, much more confident than the year before. We looked down to the new 6th graders, asking "Were we really that short just last year?" And by the end of 7th grade I was shocked that I was officially an 8th grader. 8th grade is defiantly my favorite year. I feel like I have everything under control. But next year is full of changes. We'll have free periods, more homework, electives, and an open campus. The new choices also bring new responsibilities that test us in figuring out how we grow from kids to adults. As we say goodbye on the last day we sit together as Balboa students, we reflect on what has happened the past 3 years, but also look forward to what is coming up in the next 4 years. My advice to future 8th graders is to keep up with your school work and try your absolute best and make lots of good, loyal friends that don’t get you in the bad kind of crowd. And most importantly, have fun! This is the last year you will be the oldest in the school for another 4 years, so enjoy it! I’d like to finish this speech off with this quote : A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.-Ayn Rand…

    Since the age of seven, I have known that I want to be a performer. I remember that as a child I fantasized about sold out theatres and New York City skylines. My dream of being on Broadway has always been an essential part of who I am and drives me to achieve greatness, whether it be in school, in theatre, or in my daily life. This want to be successful makes me a great candidate for National Honor Society because I have a steady track record in the key principles emphasized in membership.…

    One thing people have always told me is that I remind them of the person Randall Cobb from the book game changers. He has one of the most creative and unique personalities.

    To be able to succeed in everything is a goal most people have for themselves. With success comes happiness, comfortability, and a sense of accomplishment. This is my greatest goal in life, to be able to make something of myself; to become someone no one else could imagine me being. This kind of motivation and perseverance that I display is what I believe can make me an excellent candidate for the National Honors Society. I have always set outstanding goals for myself, putting the pressure on myself I needed to so that I would get the outcome I desired. This strength shows through my grades and the rigorous classes I take, as well as my growth in character. Not only do I excel in my perseverance, but I believe I am a strong leader here at Central Dauphin, someone who is not only helpful in the classroom, but also in the community.…

    I just wanted to take a minute to officially thank everyone who came out to my graduation over the weekend. When I first completed my initial degrees, I made a hard choice to not pursue medicine. I felt as if I failed myself and wasted time for a degree I would not use. I was worried my friends and family would feel the same, but it was the complete opposite. Their positive encouragement allowed me to gain confidence to go back to school for a degree I wanted. Even if some may not have been the happiest at the time, I still received support and love.…

    Family, Friends, Fellow peers. I would like to welcome you all to the 2017 Holmes Jr High eighth grade graduation. One of our wonderful staff members once explained to me “I think you’re going to have to suck it up and deal with it. There's really nothing you can do” This has really stuck with me through the last year. I may not have control over everything, but I might as well make the nest of what I do have control over.…
