Example of Mr. Scribner's Autobiography:

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MR. SCRIBNER

I was born in Bloomington, Indiana.  I was
raised in Indiana, Virginia, and  Missouri until I was in the Second
Grade.  My family moved to Western Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.  I
attended the Upper Perkiomen School District from 2^nd to 8^th Grade.  I was then transferred to St. Pius X High School in Pottstown, PA for grades 9-12.

Growing up in rural Pennsylvania had many advantages.  I was active in
sports, outdoor activities, and once I was in Middle School, I was able
to ride my bicycle just about anywhere.  I also had many part time jobs
since the age of 12 to support myself.  I started working on farms in my
area to make extra money.  I bailed hay, milked cows, and chased calves
around the barn when I accidentally left the gate to their pen open.  I
then spent time working for a stone mason who lived on our block.  I
spent a summer lifting bricks and blocks, mixing cement and building
scaffolding systems.  I learned a lot.  I also delivered papers, worked
at local fast food restaurants, and did maintenance work on a local golf
course throughout High School. 

My grades were horrible throughout school.  I graduated at the bottom of
the class from my high school despite scoring very well on standardized
tests.  I was accepted at Shippensburg University in 1986 for a summer
program called Act 101.  I was also accepted to the Antonelli School of
Art and Design for my photography skills.  In hindsight I probably
should have gone to the Photography School.  I did not succeed in
college and partied too much.  Eventually I flunked out.  It was not all
bad though, I was put in the position of needing to join the Army
Reserve to help pay for school, and the leadership skills, training, and
discipline would ultimately make that one of the best decisions I have
made in my entire life.

I went to Basic Training in 1988.  I was stationed at Fort Jackson, SC
for Initial training and Fort Gordon, GA for “Commo” school.  I made
some of the best friends of my life while serving my country.  I have
excelled at military training and went on to be deployed twice overseas
after 9/11.   I am still very interested in the firearms training,
first-aid, and other classes I was required to take.  My military
service also allowed me to see the world and to really have an
appreciation of what being born in the USA means.  I have seen the
advantages that are taken for granted by others who have not had the
same vision of poverty and war.  I am thankful for those experiences as
well.

I was married in 1992 to my oldest son’s mother.  I was divorced and now
am re-married to the mother of my other son’s.  My sons are 19, 7, and 5
and are awesome!  I just celebrated my 10^th anniversary of my marriage to my wife this year.  We live in our home near King of Prussia, PA.

I
began to try to be a teacher while at Shippensburg in 1987.  I wanted
to be a history teacher, but found my way into other jobs as I needed
more money to support a family.  I started in sales and customer service
for various companies in the Philadelphia area in 1991.  With a new
family and child to support, I took whatever job was available at the
time.  I gradually, over the years, was able to turn one opportunity
into another while moving from job to job every 3-4 years.  I got better
at sales and more professional in my manners and appearance.  I have
sold building products, health care services, engineering services,
coatings and paints, and ultimately ended up as a kitchen designer and
architectural sales representative.  I also went to Gwynedd Mercy
College from 2004-2006 and finished my degree in Business Administration
20 years after beginning it at Shippensburg.

While on deployment in the Middle East in 2008, I was given the
opportunity to take my Praxis (teacher’s) exams.  I scored very well
with no preparation.  When I returned from overseas, I went back to
Gwynedd and enrolled in the Teacher Certification program.  I also
approached the School District of Philadelphia for a job.  I was given
an Emergency Certification and allowed to teach in January of 2009.  I
was at University City High School for 3 years and now I work here at
Crossroads Accelerated Academy at Elverson!

In addition to teaching,  I coach many sports for my sons, I play
volleyball and lead worship and missions teams at my church, and I spend
time with my family as much as possible.  I am also a Boy Scout Leader
for my sons.  I am interested in sports, video games, and construction
projects around my home.  My family and I also enjoy spending time
outdoors fishing, camping, hiking, and riding bicycles. 

Foods
I enjoy include anything grilled, ice cream, and spinach dip with
pumpernickel bread.  I love to cook and enjoy cooking with my
7-year-old.  My goals are to complete my Masters Degree,  continue to
coach and work with the Boy Scouts, improve the conditions here at Crossroads and continue to teach as much as I can. 
Ultimately I might want to be a Principal or a Counselor as well.
