• W761934921 abstract "As a freshman entering high school, I had no idea what to expect. Everything before high school was laid out in a nice simple path. Up to that point all I had to do was get on the bus in the morning and leave on the same bus after school was through. In high school, I became responsible for choosing my own classes and deciding where I wanted my education to take me. After talking with my parents and consulting my high school academic advisor, I decided to take an introductory agriculture fabrication class. Within the class description was the promise of learning welding techniques and wood construction skills. I was sold. This class appealed to my inner desire to work with my hands and build stuff. Also, it was not biology. Taking the introductory agriculture class sparked an interest and led me down the path of taking every agriculturally related course that was offered at my school, including biology.In addition to my agriculture course work, I was a proud and active member of the FFA chapter. I loved being around people who shared my love for both agriculture and working. I competed in several Career Development Events (CDEs), had multiple Supervised Agriculture Experiences (SAEs) and eventually held a chapter officer position. I love my high school because of the agriculture program and my agriculture teachers. They cared about me and the choices I made. They took sincere interest in my projects and education and were always there for questions, concerns, and support. The unfortunate consequence of having two great agriculture teachers was that I didn't see the point in my other classes or teachers. I wasn't using the knowledge from the other classes, so why should I attend them? My agriculture classes were all of the subjects wrapped into one. was typically reading fiction and writing about my feelings, was calculating how many cantaloupes I could buy for $42, and gym class was just an excuse to throw things at other people.Agriculture classes brought all of my classes together (except gym class). Calculating how much material I needed for a specific job or project required finding and comparing the pricing of materials and the use of algebra and arithmetic. Trigonometry became useful when needing to find angles for a project and the Pythagorean theorem made sense when squaring or finding the elusive hypotenuse when constructing doghouse rafters. Writing a resume and writing thank you letters to sponsors required proficiency in and writing. In my agriculture classes, the words math or English were never mentioned. Somehow, my teachers snuck the other class content into their own classes and I loved it all. I spent more time within the walls of my agriculture program than I did at home. I cherished my relationships, my growing knowledge base, and the unintentional fun of learning. FFA and my agriculture classes are what I remember the most about high school. My agriculture teachers helped build me into the person I am today.During my junior year of high school, I interviewed with a local electrician who was looking for an entry-level worker. He liked my attitude about work and my resume. Soon I was working 20 hours a week during the school year and 60 hours a week during the summer. I worked in various settings, using my leadership skills from FFA and career and technical education from my agriculture classes to excel in my position. After two years on the job, I had my own crew of eight people working together like a finely tuned machine. We were responsible for remodeling the electrical work in several Phoenix area resorts and motels. Once again, I found my passion was working with my hands and applying the knowledge I acquired from my boss's training and my time spent in the shop in high school.After five years of electrical work, I decided that construction was not the career for me and decided to pursue a degree at the University of Arizona. …" @default.
