Reflection Essay

During my high school experience, I have created and submitted numerous large

assignments but there have been many that I have had much pride for, one being my computer

science project. In this class, we were assigned to create a project that included the units prior.

For this project, I decided that I wanted to make a "Pokemon-themed" game. I was already

pleased with myself as my code was functional, but what pushed this project to be the project I

am most proud of was my grade as I not only received a 100% but also received 1st place on

the voting section where I got 9 more points in extra credit.

Looking at my full high school transcript I realized that my grades generally

stayed the same. Although my grades in high school were pretty consistent I believe the most

drastic changes in my grades specifically happened during the transitional year from middle

school to high school. Middle school was extremely difficult for me and although now I mainly

see A’s and B’s in middle school it was mostly C’s and I believe I grew a lot since then

academically. High school-wise reviewing my transcript doesn’t present much ‘grade’ growth

throughout the years, I did step into more difficult math courses during the second half of my

four years which I quite shocking as it is not my strong point.

Throughout my life I have always struggled the most in the category of mathematics,

where I was always seeing lower grades, although they are much better now, I still struggle in

the area. I hope to continuously see growth in this category. Another subject I hope to see

growth in would be English; although it is not a relatively difficult class, my lack of interest in
some of the books is an obstacle to my growth. I feel this is something that could change quite

positively as one finds interest and depth in something when they are open-minded enough to

see the deeper meaning which I hope I achieve.

GOHS has provided me with many opportunities and has provided aid when needed.

Some courses at Great Oaks such as ASL and Computer Science which I am currently taking

offer college credits. GOHS also provided a day purely for seniors to obtain more information so

students can still be successful after high school. On this day, we had the opportunity to meet

with counselors of colleges along with meeting with those in financial to get a head start towards

the students’ next step in life which was beyond helpful.
