Journal 1: Introduction

My name is Tionne Rhodes matriculating English at Middle Georgia State University. I plan on using my degree to teach high school literature. In addition< I want to teach in a rural area and help level the playing field for those students, motivating them to achieve their dreams. Coming from Taliaferro County, I know the importance of good teachers and mentors. These people encompassed what teachers of today should be: good leaders, honorable, compassionate, and passionate. Sounding cliche, I want to make difference in the lives of others. Teachers do that.They take young, active minds and they teach them to think, process information, and use them to shape their futures. Not only that, but I consider myself to be an adventurous person. I enjoy taking long road trips by myself to flee away from my every day life. I take trips to the beach to go parasailing and kayaking. My favorite activity is watching scary movies on Netflix and spending time with my pet Simon.

Tattnall Square Academy article employs some important information; however, the article lacks major detailing about this school system. The history section gives minor detailing in regards to the educational systems facility. This Wikipedia article provides updates only up until to 2018.

Important information that this article lack includes that 90% of students qualify for Hope, over 2 million dollars in scholarships are awarded and the 10,000 hours of community service students partake in to give back to their community. It also does not mention that Tattnall's math team placed first in the Georgia State competition. Based on the school's web page, Tattnall is the only school in Macon to qualify for this competition.

Contrarily, the website does share the graduation and college acceptance rate of 100%. They also state that, after graduation students matriculate to some of the most "prestigious colleges" in the country such as; Duke, Vanderbilt, and schools like Baylor. The students are afforded the opportunity to get a jump start into college courses. The Academy offers 18 dual enrollment credit hours through local colleges in Macon, Georgia. The article lists the exact colleges that accept the dual enrollment credit hours.

Despite aforementioned educational information listed, the academic section is still inadequate due to the articles outdated nature. I wouldn't consider this article neutral, because it only views this school system through a positive lens. The article only applauds the school system for it's achievements; however, the publisher does not include the hardships faced. For Instance, the only information mentioned happens to be the wins that the Boys baseball team upholds. It say nothing about other sports; Such as, Football, cheerleading, basketball, swimming, tennis, or even track and field and their losses against other teams.

Additionally, another missing component is the amazing staff that guides the students in their paths to success.Something historical about the staff is that the Head baseball and Softball coaches has been working there since 1999. Their hard work was dedicated towards the 407 wins added to the school's record.

The Wikipedia article on this academy demonstrates that there is room for growth and updates. An active entry for this school should be monthly. (Tionnetakala (talk) 01:27, 12 June 2019 (UTC))
