Student Success Story
Part 6
Andrea Packer anticipates graduating with a B .A. in
Education from Catawba in December 2011 and then enrolling in the Master of
Arts in Teaching program from Salem College, also offered on the Davidson
campus. Packer spends her days on the Davidson campus working 29 hours a week
as a teaching assistant for instructors in the DCCC Early Childhood Education
program. “Not only did receiving this scholarship make me study harder and be
the best I could be, but it also allowed me to graduate in May 2010 with my associate
degree totally paid for,” she said. “I couldn’t believe I had my first degree,
and I was debt free what a wonderful blessing!” if students work hard during
high school, complete all assignments on time, and demonstrate a bright,
positive attitude toward school, learning, and other people, then they can be
highly successful as a high school student and qualify for academic scholarship
also. All they need to do is put in the time, study time. All the hard work and
effort during high school will definitely pay off. They will be rewarded for
their hard work. But if they just mess around during their high school years
and neglect their studies, use drugs, and mistreat others, then they can expect
to fall short of what could have been their rewards of scholarship and other
opportunities, and they will suffer in the short and long term. Invest in
yourself. Give yourself opportunities of a lifetime by succeeding in high
school on a super high note.
