The “dreaded” personal statement!

Now is the time when high school students are tackling the "dreaded" personal statement. Students can use this as a time of exploration rather than drudgery. Maybe it is going a bit too far to say that it is fun, but my students are proud of themselves and what they learn through the writing process.
