That timber cat walks over and sits down in the fire. Just like the other cats did it. And he picks up this live coal. And he puts it right on his slanted, green eyes. He dusts his eyeballs with it! And he turns around to the other cats sittin on each side of John.
The timber cat says to the other cats, says, showin his teeth, "What you want to do with him there?" And looks straight dead at John, too.
And the other cats say right back all in one meow, "We better wait till Martin comes."
With that, John gives a great heave up. The chair comes up with him. But at least he was up. And he runs out the wide-open front door. He's callin as he goes out flyin, "Mister Cats! You tell Martin I was here, but I couldn't wait on him. And now I'm gone!"
And he was. Long gone. And never seen in that county since.
—“Better Wait Till Martin Comes,”
Virginia Hamilton

We should organize a student-run organic garden on our school grounds. Organic food is expensive, but one school in our region, Dickinson Middle School, was able to add an organic vegetable option to every meal while raising their food cost by only 1 percent. Nearby Browning Junior High did so with only a 2 percent increase. Students were healthier, and the administrators didn't have to fret about the budget. On the opposing side, some worry that students won't like the organic options, and we'll end up with a surplus of food and a problematic budget. The truth is that no nearby school that's tried such a program has ended up with any food surplus. Let's start a student-run organic garden today.

After a while, Sarah and her grandfather got their lives together and Sarah applied for multiple jobs to help out her and her grandfather. After all, Sarah was 15, going on 16, and was becoming a young adult.
I kinda put a little too much "after" in this paragraph. Can anyone help me get rid of that and replace it with something better? TY
Answer:
After a while, Sarah and her grandfather got their lives together and Sarah applied for multiple jobs to help out her and her grandfather. Ultimately, Sarah is 15, going on 16, and was becoming a young adult.
Explanation:
Sarah and her grandfather eventually got their lives together, which prompted Sarah to apply for multiple jobs, allowing for even more support for the duo.
I dont think the second part is particularly neccesary, as it kinda contradicts the first half of the paragraph- which says that Sarah needs a job for added support, but the second half seems to say Sarah needs a job because she is growing up.
Also, most places wont hire anyone until they are 16.

Choosing the right dog to adopt is a big responsibility that takes some thought and planning. To begin with, there are hundreds of breeds of dogs available to pet owners. They all have the potential to be great pets, but not every breed is right for every person. For example, Veterinarian's Weekly categorizes a Jack Russell terrier as a high-energy breed. My aunt has one, and that thing is crazy! It needs walks like 24/7. Therefore, it would be best suited to a very active family that has a large yard and a walkable neighborhood. In addition to energy level, pet owners should consider the size of their dog. How could this excerpt from an essay best be revised to clarify meaning and enhance style?
