Jordan Phillips has learned and accomplished many things in
his four years of high school. In the beginning of his school year at Frank
McCourt High School, Jordan was a confident man with goals of exceeding all of
his classmates. When Jordan got to his first assigned class and learned a
different grading system, his goals weren’t looking as bright as he wanted to.
Eventually throughout the school year Jordan’s goal of going to “Yale” had an effect
on his grades. Jordan’s grades started to rise to a point where he felt
comfortable. He accomplished these goals by cutting down on his social life and
cranking up the studying in classes such as science and humanities.
Surprisingly Jordan raised his two lowest grades with no help from peers, just
self motivation. Jordan will take away all of the memories and experiences from FMHS and apply them when he goes to college. All of the hard work that Jordan had showed over the last four years of High School has lead him to take his talents to The State University of Albany. Jordan does not know yet where his dreams and aspirations are going to take him but he hopes that the people he will meet in the next four years will help him.
