The Right Path

My name is Lavarus Alexander and I am attending CPCC.
I am in the Pathways to Employment program. There are different courses that you can register for. I chose the Office Information Specialist course to work on my typing skills, so that I can pursue a very well paying job. I come from a rough upbringing. My mother was on drugs real bad, and my father stayed in jail, so the drug dealers in my neighborhood became my parents and also my role models. I dropped out of school in the 8th grade to live the illegal life. Now that I am older and wiser, I want to better my future and focus on a career. I want to become a role model to my wife, step children, family and friends. Just like Martin Luther King had a dream, I have a dream. One day it will come true.
