This is Maria Mercado-Garcia. I am 14 years old and in the 8th grade. I am currently at Dekalb PATH Academy Charter school but. I was supposed to go to Cross Keys this year, but I was unfocused and I was held back. I am typing this email today because I was wondering if I have to sign an application to study at Cross Keys High School I have to sign an application. My ELA teacher is making us sign High Schoolhigh school applications but I am not interested in any other High Schoolshigh schools, I am mostly interested in Cross Keys High School. The reason whythat I am interested in Cross Keys is that my older brother Richard went to Cross Keys and he. He was in Cross Keys High School's Navy JROTC program and. I wasam also interested in the girl'sgirls' soccer team. I am very interested in being inat Cross Keys High School for next year for the 9th grade is becausenext year. I understand that I can have several chances atto go to other schools and I am choosing not to takingtake the opportunity. but myThe reason whythat I want to go to Cross Keys High School is that I am planning to go to Cross Keys and do my best and, put all my effort ininto school work, and Graduate and thengraduate. Then I will move on with my life and find a job so that I can learn on how to manage my own money and help my parents with 2 or 3 bills so that my dad won't have to work more than usual just to pay all the bills with no help. Thank you for your time and have a great day.
