Actually more so of a publisher, but author would be my backup plan.
It's a cool job, ngl. -
True, I have a whole ten stories planned out, all centered around their own unique culture and religion
-
I want to be both a chemist and an author. I have another story idea brewing in the back of my mind.
-
That's good.
-
Wait, what does a publisher even do? (I sound so ignorant XD)

pub·lish·er
/pbliSHr/
noun
a person or company that prepares and issues books, journals, music, or other works for sale.
"the publishers of Vogue" -
Ooh
I’d rather be an author tbh -
So basically the publisher is the one that's willing to sell the author's work. What made you want to do that?
-
Ok I found the thingy that kind of describes my school, hang on a minute
-
My school’s REALLY prestigious
-
And we’re all ugly little brats >:(
-
A publisher publishes and sells the author's work.
I was inspired by books. My friend said if she wanted to be an author, she'd need a publisher. So, maybe, when I'm older, I'll get that career. -
That’s cool

(just so you know ____________ is what I put for the name of the school and I'm taking bits and pieces from this and I might post more if I find more)
At _____________ students learn how to learn, as they develop the mindset, essential habits, and academic skills they will need to succeed in college, in life, and in work, and to ultimately become value creators for themselves and for their communities.
__________________ motivates its students to explore the world around them, to reason analytically, to think creatively, and to progress from observation to deep understanding. ___________________ combines strong academics with a supportive, nurturing environment that fosters independence, self-knowledge, and creative collaboration providing students with the tools they will need to achieve their individual aspirations.
_________________ is based on the following core values:
Students have the personal responsibility to make sound choices, and the power to effect positive outcomes in their learning, in their work, and in their lives. Meaningful learning engenders personal growth.
Learning is robust, lifelong, and constantly occurring, and should not be limited to the school grounds or constrained by an academic calendar. Formal education should support, facilitate, and incorporate a rich range of informal educational opportunities.
Learning is cultivated through active engagement and practice and is best achieved within the context of each student’s own personal situation and community.
Interactions with others, including relatives, peers, and mentors are essential for learning, and valuable learning occurs through such interactions.
These values ensure that not only do learners gain the skills and knowledge that they need to develop their minds, but that they also cultivate their characters and acquire the sound ethical foundation necessary for success in their educational goals, in their career pursuits, and in their personal lives.
Philosophy and Goals: The Well-Educated Individual
The ten core objectives of ________________ education are:
Think for oneself.
Learn for oneself; know how to investigate the world and discover facts about the world.
Develop tools, conduct experiments, and analyze data.
Think critically: understand context and bias, reason from information, and use valid argumentation.
Innovate to solve problems in new ways.
Explain, teach, and tell a good story.
Develop self-awareness and mindfulness.
Understand personal beliefs and values and constructively engage with diverse groups.
Know how to lead and be a good team member.
Assert independence, take initiative, and own the story of one’s life.
Students have the personal responsibility to make sound choices and the power to effect positive outcomes in their learning, in their work, and in their lives.
These values are designed to ensure that not only do learners gain the skills and knowledge that they need to develop their minds, but that they also cultivate their characters and acquire the sound ethical foundation necessary for success in their educational goals, in their career pursuits, and in their personal lives.
it is intended for students who are self-directed, self-motivated, and academically prepared for the ______________Course of Study.
The ____________ curriculum, and a student’s high school experience in _______________, is divided into basic three phases. We purposively speak in terms of “phases” rather than “years” because we wish to emphasize that due to natural variability in the speeds at which students learn and work, the actual amount of time they spend in each of these phases may vary.
The Foundation Phase (Ninth Grade)
The Foundation Phase provides students with a grounding in the principles of ____________-based learning and lays a solid basis for the various disciplines and subjects the students will encounter through their work in high school. The Foundation Phase provides students with preparation for success in secondary school and has been purposively designed to accommodate wide variations in prior preparation and student accomplishment.
Exploration Phase 1 and 2 (Tenth and Eleventh Grades)
The Exploration Phase provides students with an opportunity to explore more deeply their interests and develop their talents in a curriculum that will provide a solid foundation for college or career. Whereas the Foundation Phase provides a ______________ treatment of the Ninth Grade, the Exploration Phase strengthens students’ conceptions of themselves as drivers of their own learning, by providing them with greater choice over both the content and the direction of their studies as well as the course composition of their typical school day. Because not all students will learn at the same pace or explore at the same depth, some students may complete this phase in fewer than two calendar years while others may take more.
Transition Phase (Twelfth Grade)
The final phase in _______________ provides students with an opportunity to conclude their secondary education and produce a comprehensive portfolio that summarizes their achievements. Students can conclude their preparation for college, begin their pursuit of a career, or even transition to college courses while still working within the structure of the Academy.
The goal of ________________ is to ensure that every student can find an optimal combination of opportunities to meet his/her needs and to help him/her achieve his/her dreams. -
