I will graduate in 2012 because...

Mr. Romero I want you to grade me on my intro and my conclusion.

Today's politicians are constantly debating over the future of our youth's education. But I think that can change all my peers and I have to do is strive for success. I will graduate in 2012 because of my family. I have made promises to my family pertaining graduation. My family has dreams for me and goals for me to reach. Their motto is "Graduate or Else!"

Secondly, I will graduate in 2012 because of the type of education I have and am planning on gaining. I am smart, I focus in class, and I get really good grades. A great man once said, "The importance of education has never been as important as now. You are competing against kids all around the world." And I totally agree with him.

Finally, my long-term goals are also going to motivate me graduate in 2012. I want to go to college and you obviously can't go without a high school diploma. I want a good job as well. I want to be a lawyer. I have wanted to be a lawyer since I was 6 years old. I want to be just like Johnny Cochran. I want to go where I never thought I could. And those are the reasons why I will graduate in 2012.
