On my
first day of school at The Academy of Arts, Careers and Technology I was in
amazement at what was before me. I was in the second class in the school’s
history for being able to AACT for four years. I was at that moment knows as a
classmate of the 2014 class graduates. It was amazing being able to go to AACT.
I was in the Engineering Academy at the school but I was also trying other
academy classes. I was learning from teachers out of the book and also learning
hands on in the lab classes that they offered. One day I would be in the bike
shop learning about how to rebuild bikes and the next I was in the million
dollar kitchen and bakery learning new skills. I was given the skills to do
welding and metal working along with architecture and drafting. I was given the
knowledge about being a graphic designer and how to be and animator. I was
learning things that my parents could have learned in college and it has made
me ready for my future. I was love my school and everyone in it, I am proud
that I took the path less chosen and so were my parents. Every time someone
would ask me where I was going to school when I said that I wasn’t at Robert
McQueen High School I would say AACT. I was more than happy to tell people about
my school and afterwards their response would be “I wish they had schools like
that when I was growing up.”
