There's a lot of competition for this school, but I really want to attend here because it's perfect and it's not as expensive as other private universities. For my 4 years of high school, i'm planning to pass all my classes with nothing lower than a C also want to take at least 4 AP classes and pass them. For volunteering work, I'm planning to volunteer at an animal shelter for 2 years. I would also want to do community service at the beach to pick up trash. I'm also planning to be in part of a program, like leadership for 2 years or so. Finally, I want to graduate high school with a GPA of at least 3.6 and not fail any classes through my 4 years of high school.
