I plan on using the Alpha Delta Kappa Scholarship funds to help cover the cost of tuition, lab fees and books at college. I have already been accepted to the college of my choice, however, I am in need of financial assistance. I plan on attending college to receive my bachelors and master’s degrees. My main goal once I graduate is to pursue a career as a high school mathematics teacher. The cost of tuition alone is 11,200 dollars per year. The price of books is around 1,000 dollars and lab fees are 160 dollars. My main goal is to become an educator; however, this goal will not be met unless I receive financial aid.
I had an atypical childhood. My biological parents were alcoholics and were more interested in “partying” than caring for me.
