From a promised made over a year ago by the directors of the Metropolitan Water District (MWD), the Desert Compadres 4-H Club were finally granted the opportunity to visit Los Angeles and attend a special MWD board meeting on Tuesday, June 13. Traveling several times a year to Blythe to tour its desert facilities at Gene Camp, the Palo Verde Irrigation District Diversion Dam and the Palo Verde Valley itself, MWD representatives completed their tour for the day at the local hay press at HayDay Farms, where they were later served lunch by the 4-H Club. Dressed in their uniforms, the members of the Horse Project, were given the opportunity to not only serve at this luncheon, but also led the representatives into reciting the Pledge of Allegiance…
The beginning of every meeting is very familiar to all 4-H members: "I pledge my head to clearer thinking, my heart to greater loyalty, my hands to larger service, and my health to better living..." This pledge is not just words it is a way to live. 4-H is a organization for youth that was created in 1902, the purpose was to teach about citizenship, responsibility, leadership, and other life skills. I have been in this program for seven years and will continue through out high school because my leadership skills have grown, I have became more responsible, and it has taught me a way of life.…

Auburn Application Describe extracurricular activities, including leadership positions, in which you have participated. My most significant leadership role has been my position as a color guard captain and marching band leader. I have learned to be observant of negative attitudes and how to avoid allowing situations to arise in which team mates might negatively criticize each other. I have also learned to maintain a productive atmosphere when our supervisors are busy with administrative organization. Most importantly, I have learned to lead by example, which includes maintaining a positive and energetic attitude and holding my self-standards high and always being respectful to the adults involved in the marching band program.…
The 4-H program has impacted my life in many ways; first it has allowed me to discover and nurture my passion for serving children in foster care, as well as, their families. In addition, I have gained the skill of public speaking, especially extemporaneous speeches, as well as, learning to set and reach goals; rand ealizing that "mistakes are proof that you are trying." In addition, I have learned the power of true friendship and can truly say my 4-H friends are also my family. This amazing program has shown me that I lead best by inspiration; by inspiring others to go above and beyond their comfort zone and to not be afraid of failure. I began 4-H as a high school sophomore afraid of everyone, from the cashier at the store, to my teacher…
I have been involved in an array of organizations that have helped me develop as a leader. In the sixth grade, I joined the Technology Student Association at my school. TSA is an international student organization devoted entirely to the needs of students interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, as well as business education. TSA has helped me grow as a student and it has given me the opportunity to serve as a leader in my school and within the association. While in middle school, I served as our chapter’s Reporter, Vice President, and President.…
I devoted myself to being a key part of the interact club. I participated in events such as volunteering in local soup kitchens, Spicket River cleanup, earth day and helping to pick up trash around the city of Lawrence. After I saw what a difference I could make by just simply helping my community through the school, I decided to do some community service on my own. Following my trade area I went on to volunteer at Lawrence General Hospital. Throughout my time there, my eyes were opened even more as to what a change one can simply make by dedicating one's time to others.…
The summer before my junior year, I interned for Senator Rob Portman, which was my first hands-on experience with politics. I spent over 120 hours making phone calls, attending political functions, and talking to voters in Ohio. This experience helped me realize how important it is to delve deeper into the reason behind someone's opinion. During that same summer, I attended the Ohio 4-H Teen Leadership Camp, which radically changed my leadership style: I finally understood just how important trust, communication, and understanding are in being a good leader. I took what I learned from the Ohio 4-H Teen Leadership Camp to transition my 4-H club from advisor-led to member-led.…
I have gained several skills though my 4-H experiences that I will utilize later in my life. 4-H first taught me, through my projects, time management, responsibility, and patience. I learned that starting the project just days before the fair was not ideal and caused significant stress and the possibility of having a project that I would have like to expand on. I also had to learn how to balance finishing my projects, school work, chores, and social life. With my livestock projects I learned responsibility from a young age.…

C: Implementing High-Quality Instruction - Principals support teachers through ongoing, actionable feedback and needs-based professional development to ensure that rigorous, relevant and evidence-based instruction and authentic learning experiences meet the needs of all students and are aligned across P-20. Instructional leadership is my greatest passion as a leader.
