Some Of My Leadership Experiences (FFA)

Youth leadership and development is a huge part of agriculture education. It is one of the many things that FFA is known for. Leadership is important in all career areas and should be a part of every student’s education. As a teacher, I will strive to integrate leadership development in all of my classes.

As my resume indicates, I have worked in leadership positions locally and internationally. I have worked hard to strengthen and develop the leadership skills needed to succeed. My experience is broad — from competing in speech tournaments to teaching

One of my very first instances of leadership was during a Boy Scout meeting about five years ago where I led our

I have had many accomplishments and times of leadership. Some leadership roles I have participated in are: being Deacons Quorum President, Senior Patrol Leader, Band, Cross Country, “Teacher’s PET” in 5th grade, and Basketball. Some achievements I’ve accomplished are: being #1 on the reading hall of fame in 5th grade, had 4 Band concerts, gone to Scout Camp and helped with eagle projects, been to 7 Cross Country meets, and been on 3 Basketball teams.

I have not had many leadership roles because I do not seek them. That said the few roles I have had have always been particularly important. I have worked in the Registrar’s Office for Mrs.

My role as president of my high school’s National Honor Society also allowed to demonstrate my worth as a leader. I was in charge of the overall organization of the club, finding more volunteering opportunities

for four years I have been an active member in,the Edmond FFA and FFCLA.Within these four years I have involved myself in the Edmond FFA Farm Business Management Academic Team and as a goat livestock showmen for two years. I have involved myself in two different Edmond schools FCCLA’s, within all four of these years,  I have become apart of the club officer team, Star Event, been a representative in many District 3 meetings, including the leadership conference. During the summer, for every year for six years I involved myself  in teaching Vacation Bible School, in both Texas and

I have demonstrated leadership in a several different ways. During middle school, I was a member of the National Junior Honor Society. In fact, I gave up a majority of my study halls to help out the advisor. I am currently a captain of my fall sport. Because I hold this position, I help the underclassmen during games, encourage them, and resolve conflicts. In addition to that, I used to be a teacher’s assistant to a second grade religious education class. Next year, I plan to join student government and maintain leadership positions.

As an officer of multiple clubs, I help underclassmen find their place at Anacortes High.

In volleyball and basketball, I have been selected as team captains and awarded all league 1st team honors. Also in basketball, I have led the state in 3-pointers, broken the school record for 3-pointers in a game, and received Honorable Mention all-state. I am Student Council Activities Chair, the class of 2018 treasurer, three-time yearbook editor and FBLA public relations officer. The past three years I have competed in District and State FBLA competitions where I received 3rd in Journalism, and 1st place in Word Processing my junior year at districts, as well as getting 5th at state in Publication Designs. By not only being involved in various organizations, but holding leadership positions in them has taught me leadership skills and

Although I have been on the tennis team for two years, there is more of myself that you may not know. Besides tennis, I participate in gymnastics and Track. For track, I am a pole vaulter and hurdler. I lettered last year for Varsity. As for other leadership roles, I was a WEB leader which helped incoming sixth graders while I was in eighth grade. During that time, I learned how to organize events and become more social. For this reason, I love to include others and make sure no one feels as though they aren part

Before this class, I had a very primitive and vague definition of leadership. Not only did I define it as per my views and ideologies, but I also said that each individual has their own definition of leadership. My initial belief was that leadership does not have a clear cut definition, but there were well defined leadership traits which made an individual. I also initially believed that personal traits did not translate into leadership traits with no strong correlation. After going through the various modules this class offered, it is safe to say that I have significantly redefined leadership and underwent a strong personal assessment. This paper talks what I took back from each of the class activities, assignments and how my self-assessment compares to the perception of others.

Once I turned sixteen, I have always used my free time in the summer to work and save money. My summers were often spent working at the local amusement park, Water Country USA; from the time it opened till the time it closed, six days a week for about three months. Having a summer job taught me a lot of useful skills such as punctuality, how to communicate effectively, and most importantly responsibility. Even though, my summer jobs were beneficial to my personal development, I feel as though it has somewhat inhibited my professional and educational growth. I have always wanted to take part in a summer internship or research; however, because I am expected to earn revenue during the summer months these desires have been abandoned because the

My Catholic School leadership experience stems from years of being involved in my diocese, first as a student, then as an employee and then as a mother who raised and educated three children in that diocese. I am a firm supporter of Catholic education as I have experienced the benefits that only a Christ centered learning environment can provide as a student, parent and educator.
