This is my first year joining the Appleton Career Academy and I am a senior.  I am interested into going into the education field. Aside from school I work two jobs and also volunteer at the homeless shelters around Appleton from time to time.  I love the ACA because of the flexibility and freedom it allows us to have. In no other traditional classroom would I be able to learn 21st century skills that will actually benefit me towards my future career. My future plans are to graduate high school, go to Northern Michigan University and graduate with a major in history and a minor in art.
