Things I Learned In High School
When I think about my school year, many things come to mind. I think about the friends that I’ve made. I think about the highs and lows that have happened.I also think about how I’ve grown personally. My 7th grade year at CMS was full concepts learned, memorable experiences, and personal growth.
This year I have learned many concepts. One thing I learned is inequalities. I learned inequalities from Mrs.Pilato’s 3rd period math class. She helped me learn more important things. An example is 3y-3>12. The definition of inequalities is the relation between two expressions that are not equal. Another concept I learned is the Roman Empire/ Eurasia. I learned that concept in Mrs.Kavan’s 5th period history class. She taught me many things I didn’t know before. An example is that the Roman Empire was formed by Augustus after the

One experience I had was with Mr.C. He is a security guard and he keeps school safe. He makes sure that everyone feels equal. He looks out for people like for example he asks how our day was. Another experience I had was activities/ lunch. I went to some of the dances. There was fun music and some of my friends were there. The last experience that I had was with friends. I made many new friends and they are always there for me. They are supportive and help me through good and bad things. Those are some of the many experiences I had this year.
Lastly, I have shown a lot of personal growth. I showed personal growth socially. I did that by making contact with more people. I made new friends and talked to more people. I’ve also grown emotionally in control. I can now control my behavior by not getting into as many arguments and not getting referrals. My behavior is getting there I just need to leave all the drama behind. Lastly I’ve got more focus. I got more focus in math. I get my work done more thoroughly, and if I don’t understand a question I ask my friends for help. That is how I’ve shown personal

    In grade 6 I went to a great school called David Leeder Middle School. Even though none of my friends from grade 5 were in my class, I had an amazing year. All of my teachers were fabulous except for one. My math and science teacher was the worst teacher I had ever had. I remember that she would always yell at us for asking her questions about our work. In grade 7, I was also in David Leeder, but this was the best year I had ever had in my life. Every single teacher of mine were very good and they taught everything very thoroughly. Also, I made a lot of friends during this year. Academically I had the best year and I took part in extra curriculars such as soccer and volleyball. During these two years I went to Pakistan, I went to New York…

    Since Jack stood up for me, I’ve regained my confidence. Nancy invites me over during the week and helps me learn to be more carefree and how to open up to others. Nancy was vehement while teaching me and was hoping I could start to fit in. Mr. Addams continues to tutor me after school and my grades have been gradually increasing. My classmates have also started to accept that I’m different and I’ll never be like them, but being different shouldn’t affect how I’m seen by everyone. I started to make small conversations with classmates rather than holding back my thoughts and others have seen my looks may be different than theirs but they could still be friends with me rather than judge my mistakes and the way I talk. I’ve had less stress since…

    Growing up we all looked forward to starting high school, but how many of us enjoyed every bit of it? High school was a moment that I looked forward to; thoughts of doing what I finally wanted to flood my mind. In June 2008, I received my GSAT result and was delighted when I saw that I passed for the William Knibb Memorial High School; although a bit disappointed because it wasn’t on my top five list. High school was not everything that I expected. In a few days, I met a few nice people. The first week of school was amazing, but after a few weeks things started getting intense. High school; however, was no bed of roses, especially when it came onto the subjects, reports, and school rules.…

    Then I went to J.F.K. middle school for two years. And then I went to Enrico Fermi high school. I will always remember my high school years fondly. I had a lot of fun and I worked really hard in terms of work and studying. It feels like yesterday that I graduated high school. In reality, it’s been 2.5 months since I graduated. I was apart of Fermis last graduating class before the high schools were consolidated. This made me feel a sense of ownership and pride. I was apart of my school's history of the final class to graduate from it. I feel like I will forever be apart of my school and my school will forever be apart of me. I asked my dad how he remembers the day that I graduated. And he said that I said, “I can’t believe this day finally came.” (Sternal, Joseph.)I still feel like I should be walking into that school again. I can’t believe I’m walking into a school that isn’t Fermi even today. I’m very happy that I got to be apart of the last graduating class because it made my high school experience that much more memorable and…

    Things that I have learned so far about high school is that the more you will realize who your friends are they will really start showing you their “true colors”. Furthermore balancing the workload is a very hard task because you have extra curriculum and other responsibilities dealing with your household. Being in high school you aren't going to get pampered or a teacher constantly coming to you, tell you that you have work due , missing assignments , being in class on time and keeping up with your grades . Also , I have learned that you shouldn't wait unit the last minute to turn work in or ask for extra credit , most certainty you shouldn't wait until the day before the due date to turn in your assignments . By having other classes that will be due…

    My freshman year at Spelman wasn’t one for the books, it wasn’t the definition of #goals, it wasn’t full of memories, in fact it was probably one of the hardest years of my life. For as long as I can remember, I was always a well-known member of my school’s student body. I was the girl teachers requested, I made everything I ever tried out for, and in every leadership position in almost every club. I can confidently say high school was great and I thought college would be even better.…

    Fall 2014 I felt at home and warm when I walked into Harper Woods high school. I spent countless nights trying to help my younger brother, who was 6 then, with his homework then put him to bed. Nights like those mom was pulling overtime and was working night shift. I could see how hard mom work to maintain the home and feed her offspring. Life wasn't terrible and it sure wasn't depressing, it was a learning experience. My tenth grade summer I applied to a caddie program at the Country Club of Detroit, in Grosse Pointe…
