Bio

My name is Raj’a Bue. I come from the small town of Brunswick, Georgia. Throughout my years of school, I have increased my knowledge and love for cheer and dance. Cheerleading has given me the skills that I need to be successful as an athlete, student, and person skills which will lead me to success through college and into the real world. As much as I love cheerleading, it is not my only focus in my life. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a Bachelor of Science degree in Education. Academically, I have been working diligently to prepare myself for my future. I have set certain goals that I wish to achieve in my lifetime. Some of these goals are personal, while others are professional. I have worked tirelessly to ensure that I am successful in my academic and athletic pursuits. My hard work has paid off and allowed me to volunteer in service throughout my community. Working as a Student Teacher has had an overreaching effect on my outlook on my life and career goals. It has instilled in me the fundamental values of service above self, respect, and determination, as well as assisting in aiding with my development as a leader. I believe teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Although this is a huge responsibility, I also believe that through the education of children, we can deliver children the opportunity to find a future that they enjoy, and this is a responsibility that is very much worth working towards.

      Priscilla Shireen Luke Scholarship
      I believe that I have impacted the world through community service. I have been given opportunities to become a responsible citizen by helping others while learning selflessness and fostering growth. My community service has helped me develop a broader perspective of the world, build networking skills, and most importantly shaped my personality and the person I am. Community service has been essential for me, being a responsible member of society, and has helped create a sense of belonging and connection with others. Community service has also allowed me to make a positive difference in the world and has helped foster a sense of belonging and purpose. I have learned the value of diversity, strong communication, mutual respect, shared planning, and working towards common goals. I have learned leadership, problem-solving, collaboration, and time management. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a Bachelor of Science degree in Education that would assist me in pursuing a career as a Teacher. I believe teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Teachers are the backbone of our educational system, molding the minds of the children they teach and making a long-lasting impact on their students and the world. Passionate and devoted educators are the key to inspiring the next generation of students and preparing them for professional success. I have had the opportunity to see first-hand how much my work can have an impact on the world. I have been able to interact with people who have vastly different backgrounds and have learned empathy as I develop a global perspective. One of the greatest benefits of community service is learning to be more selfless and considerate of others. Community service has also been a great way to broaden my skills as it has offered an opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and try something new while learning more about my community and the world. Empathy and compassion are two of the most important qualities to emerge from my community service. Community service has been crucial, as activities have defined values, developed social skills, and I have learned about my community. Service to the public is such an integral part of any society. It brings people together people from all walks of life, engaging them for a common cause, teaching people about compassion and not just living for one’s self and serving only their needs. There is no better feeling than knowing that I am helping others in need and working towards making my local area and community a better place for everyone. I hope to leave behind a legacy of kindness, compassion, strength, and courage.
      Dr. Connie M. Reece Future Teacher Scholarship
      I have been fortunate to have the best of both worlds with my parents, who have greatly influenced who I am and how I view the world. My mother, Marsha Myers-Bue, has worked at the City of Brunswick Police Department for 15 years. She currently serves as the Recruiting Officer and Community Services Officer, responsible for the agency’s recruitment and retention programs. She keeps in touch with applicants throughout the application process and conducts background investigations on new applicants. My father, Captain Richard Bue Jr., has been a firefighter for almost 20 years at the City of Brunswick Fire Department. He has received advanced training in firefighting courses and has served in various capacities. He is a valuable asset to the fire department and the community, making sacrifices to help others that go unnoticed by many. His dedication and hard work inspire me, and he has always supported and motivated me in pursuing my goals. My mother, in addition to her work, has also maintained a loving home for us, including my siblings, my father, and my grandmother who suffers from Alzheimer’s. She has managed to juggle her workload while attending college courses to further her education. Despite her busy schedule, she has always been present for our school events and extracurricular activities, showing grace, strength, and dignity. Both of my parents have been extraordinary in their own rights, serving as community leaders and inspiring figures. Their dedication and sacrifices have motivated me to pursue my own aspirations. I am deeply grateful for their constant encouragement and support. In the future, I aspire to work with children and pursue a career as a teacher. I believe that, like first responders, teachers have the opportunity to shape the future and make a positive impact on society. While I understand the challenges that come with working with young people, I believe the reward of seeing children flourish is worth the effort and dedication required. My natural ability to connect with children and my love of learning are the qualities I have, that I believe make me ideal to embark on an educational degree. I am keen to further my understanding and knowledge of child development, care, and education. Children should have somebody who believes and supports them to become the person that they aspire to be. Working with children and assisting them in achieving their goals in life is a huge ambition of mine. I enjoy interacting with children on their level, gaining insight into their perception of the world. I believe teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Teachers are the backbone of our educational system, molding the minds of the children they teach and making a long-lasting impact on their students and the world. Passionate and devoted educators are the key to inspiring the next generation of students and preparing them for professional success. I believe that my enthusiasm, positive attitude, and strong interest in Education will give me a firm foundation on which I can build my career, working with children. I can think of no better or more satisfying path to pursue.

      Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character- that is the goal is true education.” Education is a weapon to improve one’s life. Education is a tool that maintains stability in life. It can pave the way for different opportunities and can affect the chances of employment. The value of education is important to me because it can also determine what my future holds, and has made me competent to cross the obstacles, hardships, and hurdles of life. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. Teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Through the education of children, we deliver the opportunity to find a future that they enjoy. In facing present hardships, I've learned to embrace vulnerability as a source of strength. Anxiety and self-doubt no longer hold me captive; instead, they serve as catalysts for growth and self-discovery. With each challenge, I've grown more resilient, carving a future grounded in authenticity and purpose. While the path ahead may be uncertain, I am committed to continuous learning and growth, and confident in my ability to overcome any obstacle that comes my way. I chose to attend Albany State University because I wanted an environment that was going to prepare me to be great, not only in my profession but personally as well. My professors and administrators are concerned not just with my grades, but also with the importance of maintaining a great emotional, and psychological connection with my culture. I saw HBCU pride the moment I stepped on campus. Historically Black Colleges and Universities have always permitted us to love ourselves out loud without reservation apology or fear. The sense of community and culture that surround me makes it exciting to attend college, making me see the next four years of my life as more than a mere stepping stone into my future but a chance for me to grow and develop. This experience has opened my eyes to different types of people and expanded my interests beyond what I was used to. Yes, my university is a historically black college/university but it's so full of diversity. People of different ethnicities, cultures, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Attending the unsinkable Albany State University has given me a sense of pride not only within myself but my people as well.

Overcoming the hardships involved in working with young people in such a transitional and dynamic time of their lives will be a challenge, but I believe the reward of seeing children flourish is more than worth the effort and dedication required. From a young age, I have been involved in my younger siblings learning and development. I have also taken several Early Childhood Educational classes.

      My Mother has been a police officer for 15 years. Throughout those years she has served in many capacities. Now as the Recruiting Officer and Community Services Officer, she is responsible for the agency’s recruitment and retention programs. She maintains contact with applicants throughout the application process, she also conducts background investigations on all new applicants before being employed with the department. My mother has somehow found a balance to also provide a loving home for my siblings and me, my father, and my grandmother who suffers from Alzheimer’s. She has prepared home-cooked meals, eaten dinner with us, helped with homework, and has been there to hug and tuck us in at bedtime. She has found the time to travel with me to dance and cheer competitions and cheer my younger brothers on while they played basketball and football, even when she was called out on calls in the middle of the night. She has patrolled the streets to keep the public safe and somehow juggled an entire workload while attending college courses to further her education. She has shown up for all school events and extracurricular activities, even when she had to work, taking one hat off to put on another. Throughout her career, she has shown grace, strength, and dignity. Many young girls and young women look up to her because of her hard work, dedication, and sacrifice.

      Early Childhood Developmental Trauma Legacy Scholarship
      Unfortunately, many traumatic events and situations will occur throughout our lifetimes. While these can certainly have an impact on us – both emotionally and physically research shows they can have even more long-term, devastating consequences for children later down the road. Without intervention and help, traumatized children grow up to be traumatized adults, often having abnormal reactions to stress, chronic physical ailments, relationship problems, learning difficulties, and tendencies to engage in risky behaviors. Children may also show deficits in language development and abstract reasoning skills.

I have to have enough energy to perform the demanding physical activities required, such as stunts, tumbling, and dancing. My diet is high in carbohydrates and lean protein, such as chicken, fish, and legumes. I also include foods in my diet that can help reduce inflammation and enhance recovery from exercise. Inflammation throughout the body and brain can contribute to mood disorders, including anxiety and depression. It’s not just our physical health that can see a boost when we prioritize a healthy diet. Research shows that food choices also affect mental health. Studies have found that eating breakfast may improve short-term memory and attention. Students who eat breakfast tern to perform better than those who don’t. We need food that feeds not only our growing bodies and muscles but foods that help with brain power. I have learned the importance of when to take a break or rest, as sleep, hydration, and self-care are also very important, as eating habits can affect sleep and mental health. Consuming fewer processed foods can lead to better brain and emotional health. Drinking plenty of water, even mild dehydration can affect your mood. I have noticed a healthy, well-balanced diet helps me think clearly and feel more alert. It also improves my concentration and attention span. My Coach assists us with our diets to boost mental health and encourages us with healthy and fun recipes. We focus on eating plenty of fruits and vegetables along with foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon. Dark green leafy vegetables in particular are brain protective. Nuts, seeds, and legumes, such as beans and lentils, are also excellent brain foods. Our brain and nervous system depend on nutrition to build new proteins, cells, and tissues. I try my best to steer clear of too many processed snack foods, such as potato chips, or sugar-filled snacks, such as candy and soft drinks that can lead to ups and downs in energy levels. I also try my best to have a healthy snack whenever hunger strikes, such as fruits or nuts.

Working as a Student Teacher for the Pint Pirate Laboratory School at Brunswick High School has had an overreaching effect on my outlook on my life and career goals. Being a Student Teacher has instilled in me the fundamental values of service above self, respect, and determination, as well as assist in aiding with my development as a leader. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. Academically, I have been working diligently to prepare myself for my future. I believe teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Although this is a huge responsibility, I also believe that through the education of children, we can deliver children the opportunity to find a future that they enjoy, and this is a responsibility that is very much worth working towards. Overcoming the hardships involved in working with young people in such a transitional and dynamic time of their lives will be a challenge, but I believe the reward of seeing children flourish is more than worth the effort and dedication required. From a young age, I have been involved in my younger siblings learning and development. I have also taken several Early Childhood Educational classes. I gained a sense of pride and achievement, as I helped them grow into strong readers and independent thinkers. Having the patience to explain new words, sentences and concepts with clarity to the younger audience has pushed me forward to discover how children develop their minds. My natural ability to connect with children and my love of learning are the qualities I have, that I believe make me ideal to embark on an educational degree. I am keen to further my understanding and knowledge of child development, care, and education. Children should have somebody that believes in and supports them to become the person that they aspire to be. Working with children and assisting them in achieving their goals in life is a huge ambition of mine. I enjoy interacting with children on their level, gaining insight into their perception of the world. In the future, I aim to work with children. I feel the rewards of a professional career in teaching would satisfy the goals I have hoped to achieve for quite a while. I believe that with my enthusiasm, positive attitude and strong interest, Education will give me a firm foundation on which I can build my career, working with children. I can think of no better or more satisfying path to pursue. Overcoming the hardships involved in working with young people in such a transitional and dynamic time of their lives will be a challenge, but I believe the reward of seeing children flourish is more than worth the effort and dedication required, demonstrating service above self. Student teaching has also provided me with a foundation to realize service is vital to a successful life. I have the ability and determination to achieve my goals, no matter the hurdles I have to overcome. I am a hard-working student and I will commit myself to effectively taking advantage of the opportunity that the scholarship will provide me.

STEAM is an educational discipline that aims to spark an interest and lifelong love of the arts and sciences in children from an early age. Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Math are similar fields of study in that they all involve creative processes and none uses just one method for inquiry and investigation. Teaching relevant, in-demand skills that will prepare students to become innovators in an ever-evolving world is paramount, not only for the future of the students themselves but for the future of the country. STEAM empowers teachers to employ project-based learning that crosses each of the five disciplines and fosters an inclusive learning environment in which all students can engage and contribute. As opposed to traditional models of teaching, educators using the STEAM framework bring the disciplines together, leveraging the synergy between the modeling process and math and science content, for example, to blur the boundaries between modeling techniques and scientific/mathematical thinking. Through this holistic approach, students can exercise both sides of their brains at once. I believe that with my enthusiasm, positive attitude and strong interest, Education will give me a firm foundation on which I can build my career, working with children.

My natural ability to connect with children and my love of learning are the qualities I have, that I believe make me ideal to embark on an educational degree.

I believe that with my enthusiasm, positive attitude and strong interest, Education will give me a firm foundation on which I can build my career, working with children. I can think of no better or more satisfying path to pursue.

      Through community service, I have been given the opportunities to become a responsible citizen by helping others while learning selflessness and fostering growth. There are several reasons why community service is important to me. Community service helps develop a broader perspective of the world, develop networking skills, and most importantly it has shaped my personality as an individual. Community service has been essential to me being a responsible member of society and has helped create a sense of belonging and connection with others. Community service has also allowed me to make a positive difference in my community and has fostered a sense of belonging and purpose. I have learned the value of diversity, strong communication, mutual respect, shared planning, and working towards common goals. My community service experiences have also assisted me to develop real work skills that will help me succeed in high school and beyond. I have learned leadership, problem-solving, collaboration with others, and time management. I have had the opportunity to see first-hand how much my work can have an impact on the world. I have been able to interact with people who have vastly different backgrounds and have learned empathy as I developed a global perspective. One of the greatest benefits of my community service experiences has been learning to be more selfless and considerate of others. Community service experiences have also been a great way to broaden my skills, as it has offered an opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and try something new while learning more about my community. Empathy and compassion have been two of the most important qualities to emerge from community service experiences. The experiences have been crucial for me as the activities have helped me define values and develop social skills. Service to the public has been integral. The services that I have been a part of have been able to bring people together people from all walks of life, engaging them for a common cause. This has taught me about compassion and not just living for myself, but being a service to others. As you can see, my community service experiences, volunteering, and giving back to my community have made me think differently about others and myself. There is no better feeling than knowing that you are helping others in need or working towards making your local area and community a better place for everyone. I have gained a newfound respect for my community and those around me. I plan to continue to work with and through different organizations to continue to be an active service to my community.

      Donald A. Baker Foundation Scholarship
      When someone chooses to become a law enforcement officer they are committing to a lifestyle as much as they are a career. Officers and their partners and spouses are conscious of the sacrifices that come with walking the thin blue line, and they enter into it knowingly. However, the same cannot be said for the children of officers, who are often born into a law enforcement family and grow up with a unique set of experiences. These children learn crucial life lessons at a young age. They watch as their parent suits up before a shift, and they learn the importance of selflessness and service to others, especially in troubled times. They learn earlier than most that there are dangerous and evil elements in the world and come to understand that it is their parent’s job to engage the danger and respond to the evil. It means the world to me to have a mother involved in securing my community as a Police Officer. It is an absolute honor to be in the small town of Brunswick, Georgia knowing how much my mother is pouring into and giving back to the community. My Mother, Marsha Myers-Bue has been a Police Officer for 15 years. Throughout those years she has served in many capacities. Now as the Recruiting Officer and Community Services Officer, she is responsible for the agency’s recruitment and retention programs. She maintains contact with applicants throughout the application process, she also conducts background investigations on all new applicants before being employed with the department. She exchanges information with other agencies regarding crime prevention programs, and recruitment and retention issues. She also organizes and conducts oral presentations at meetings with community groups, neighborhood watch groups, youth groups, and other organizations. She conducts recreational and educational activities such as sports, games, dances, violence prevention, drug prevention, and other special events for program participants. In addition, she participates in program planning sessions with school districts, social service agencies, weed and seed, teen centers, and recreation staff to develop activity and lesson plans to provide a variety of activities for program participants. Moreover, she identifies community issues and problems and determines and evaluates alternative courses of action to resolve such issues and problems. As you can imagine my mother is a great asset to the community. Her works are vital to the success of the Police Department and partnerships. Aside from work, my mother has somehow found a balance to also provide a loving home for my siblings and me, my father, and my grandmother who suffers from Alzheimer’s. She has prepared home-cooked meals, eating dinner with us, helped with homework, and has been there to hug and tuck us in at bedtime. She has found the time to travel with me to dance and cheer competitions and cheer my younger brothers on while they played basketball and football, even when she was called out on calls in the middle of the night. She has patrolled the streets to keep the public safe and somehow juggled an entire workload while attending college courses to further her education. She has shown up for all school events and extracurricular activities, even when she had to work, taking one hat off to put on another. Throughout her career, she has shown grace, strength, and dignity. Many young girls and young women look up to her because of her hard work, dedication, and sacrifice. My mother and her works are extraordinary and she is a true definition of a superwoman, a hero, and a community leader.

      Cariloop’s Caregiver Scholarship
      My grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease sometime in 2020. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions. Alzheimer's is a type of dementia that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. Symptoms eventually grow severe enough to interfere with daily tasks. Traumas including the death of a spouse, sibling or child have also been known to cause the acute onset of Alzheimer's and other dementias. My grandmother's son, my uncle committed suicide in 2016. I believe this was a traumatic and excruciating event for my grandmother to endure. My grandmother has always been my role model and is such an inspiration to me. She was an educator for 30 years and has always placed others before herself. Both my mother and father are first responders. My mother is a Police Officer and my father is a Fire Captain. When my mother had to attend Police Academy in 2008 my grandmother retired from being a school teacher to help lighten the load on my parents. My grandmother has always placed others before herself in everything that she does and is one of the biggest influences on why I wish to become an Educator. I believe teachers are allowed to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Although this is a huge responsibility, I also believe that through the education of children, we can deliver children the opportunity to find a future that they enjoy. My grandmother has inspired me to be the best person I can be, to not only strive for my goals but to accomplish them. She makes me proud of who I am and where I come from. She has never let me down and I will never let her down. She loves me for many reasons, and I love her more than anything in this world. She gives me the courage to be the person that I am today. I can remember my grandmother attending every dance recital, cheer and dance performance, and school event along with my parents and other family members. Her picking me up from school or taking care of me while my parents had to work. I am indebted to her for so many things. She always has a smile on her face and always makes me laugh when we turn the music on for her to dance. We have found that music is indeed therapeutic. She may forget many things, however, she remembers songs from her era word for word. It is important to spend meaningful time with a family member or friend who has Alzheimer's or related dementia. Participating together in activities can help improve their quality of life and manage behavior changes that may come with the disease. I enjoy and soak up every minute that I can share and spend with her. She always has a story to tell me. One of my favorite things to do is take her for rides in my car. Although she critiques me for being a new driver, her conversation is endless. I learn different parts and pieces of her life with each drive, and how the importance of routine and familiarity is profound. This summer I will embark and attend my first semester away at college. I am nervous not only because this is my first time away from family, but because I will not be able to take my daily rides or have my nightly talks with my grandmother. However, I am so excited to make her and my family proud.

      Alexis Potts Passion Project Scholarship
      My name is Raj’a Bue. I am a rising senior at Brunswick High School and I will graduate in 2023. I come from the small town of Brunswick, Georgia. Throughout my years of school, I have increased my knowledge and love for cheer and dance. Cheerleading has had an incredibly powerful impact on my life as it has taught me the meaning of hard work, teamwork, and perseverance, as it relates to these and many other attributes needed to be successful in both cheerleading and throughout life. Cheerleading has given me the skills that I need to be successful as an athlete, student and person skills which will lead me to success through college and into the real world. However, as much as I love cheerleading, it is not my only focus in my life. I have always aspired to have a career in Education. My educational aspirations consist of acquiring a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Education that would assist me in pursuing a career as a Teacher. Academically, I have been working diligently to prepare myself for my future. I believe teachers are given the opportunity to set the foundations of a prosperous future, not only for individual children but for our society as a whole. Although this is a huge responsibility, I also believe that through the education of children, we are able to deliver children the opportunity find a future which they enjoy, and this is a responsibility which is very much worth working towards. Overcoming the hardships involved in working with young people in such a transitional and dynamic time of their lives will be a challenge, but I believe the reward of seeing children flourish is more than worth the effort and dedication required. From a young age, I have been involved in my younger siblings learning and development. I have also taken several Early Childhood Educational classes. I gained a sense of pride and achievement, as I helped them grow in to strong readers and independent thinkers. Having the patience to explain new words, sentences and concepts with clarity to the younger audience has pushed me forward to discover how children develop their mind. My natural ability to connect with children and love of learning are the qualities I have, which I believe make me ideal to embark on an Educational degree. I am keen to further my understanding and knowledge of child development, care, and education. Children should have somebody that believes and supports them to become the person that they aspire to be. Working with children and assisting them in achieving their goals in life is a huge ambition of mine. I enjoy interacting with children on their own level, gaining insight into their perception of the world. In the future, I aim to work with children. I feel the rewards of a professional career in teaching would satisfy the goals I have hoped to achieve for quite a while.
