What I Will Do Graduate from High School

What I Will Do Graduate from High School

A graduation from high school is a milestone in one’s life, to ensure I get to have that opportunity I have made a plan I will follow. Graduating high school seems difficult but with an appropriate plan, and scheduling there will be no difficulty in doing so. Graduating from high school shows you have completed 12 years of school, than you go onto college. For me it means much more than just a piece of paper it proves to my family I am capable of starting my life the way I want it to be, to ensure I won’t be struggling, so I could go to college. The things I will do is to make sure I have all A’s, to make sure I am in clubs, and other extra-curricular activities. I also would like to get a job to buy a car, to make sure I always have a ride to school so I can complete it. I would do my homework; take the necessary materials to school. I would make sure I am prepared for whatever I need in school. I would also like to get into A.P classes so I can have more of a challenge to be ready for college. When I think about graduating high school, I think of a crowning achievement. Just one of the memorable moments in life, what I hope to get from all of high school, is to gain skills I will need for college. I will study, do my homework, and take care of everything I need to do to ensure I graduate. It will mean everything if I can not only hold a diploma from high school, but from college also. I would like to not struggle or anything, so me doing well in high school will mean everything.

1.  I will persevere no matter what, to make sure I graduate.

2.  I will study, and do all assignments.

3. Turn in all work.

4.  Always be on time.

5. Be prepared for every class.

6.  Have everything organized and neat.

I will graduate high school.

Prude Basketball Players:

Prude Basketball Players:

These players Kelsey Barlow, was kicked off the team while D.J. Byrd was suspended from the team. The players were kicked off because they decided to go out and have a “good time” one night. They went out to drink, and ended up going to jail, and once they went to jail both were under investigation and were kicked off the team, although Byrd wasn’t kicked off immediately he was still under investigation. Once you are under investigation, you are immediately suspended, the whole team was disappointed. It was unbelievable how these players chose the wrong and made themselves look horrible, they should have ignored the temptations to choose the wrong so they can always choose the right. These players should even be disappointed in themselves for doing that. They really need to CTR, so they can be champions.

Get Organized Use Good Study Habits Learn How to Take Tests Believe in Yourself

Some experts say the difference between good students and poor students isn’t mainly ability. Instead, it’s how students organize themselves to use their abilities. A little organization can produce amazing results!

Get Organized:

     Have a homework agenda or scribbler to keep track of your assignments, and always carry it.

Ask the teacher for some outside help when the classroom explanation is not adequate for you.

Use scribblers to put your notes in, and keep them organized.

Have phone numbers for classmates, especially of one who will be your “homework buddy”. This is someone in your class who collects hand-outs and assignments for you when you are absent from school. You can borrow your buddy’s notes when you return to school, and you can do the same for this friend.

Ask questions when you are unsure of something.

Pay attention in class as it is very easy to let your mind wander. Take notes, concentrate on what is being said; it will be easier to absorb the information being presented.

Keep your bookshelf, desk, and kitbag neat.

Be prepared for each class; bring the materials you need to class

Student Success Statement: Coach David Diamont

Student Success Statement

“Take care of yourself and everything else will fall into place.”

Coach David Diamont

Reflection: This means if you look after yourself your life will be right, you won’t have to worry or suffer. You will be a good person, when you take care of yourself your will ultimately be able to care for others, but only when you look out for yourself at the beginning. I personally do not believe this is true, only for the fact that if you watch out for only yourself you will be considered inconsiderate or uncaring or a bad person. I think that even if this coach means well it doesn’t apply to all scenarios of human life, like if one has a child you need to take care of the child instead of yourself. But in all reality you do need to care for yourself, and be a good person.

Acquiring the Habits of Highly Successful Students

Part 12

What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your self- belief, and reinforce your determination to succeed. Some of the key characteristics you will find in those who are successful are perseverance, prepared to research, plan and work hard, practice a lot even when things do not seem to be going well, and an ability to recover and learn from setbacks. At the outset of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets  can play an important role.
