Are Social Skills More Important Than Good Grades? I personally believe that good grades have always been the more effective attribute to have when it comes to life changing decisions.

on to eighth grade I reflect on the many great memories I have shared at this school. Seventh grade was a fresh new year‚ not like sixth grade‚ or fifth‚ or fourth. You do not have high school next year like the eighth graders‚ you are not the young new ones like the sixth graders. You are the seventh graders or as many refer to the “middle class.” At this school I have done everything from fun field trips to studying for hard tests. From kindergarten to now going into eighth grade. Sometimes I

Seventh grade is a struggle for almost every student. It is a completely different atmosphere compared to what students have adapted to in their elementary years. My seventh-grade year started as a struggle‚ but after hard work and determination‚ it ended in success. I was a student at Bayou Academy and had been since kindergarten.

I am very glad that my parents made that decision because I have a lot more people in seventh grade that I’m close to than I do in the grade above me. I am also glad my parents made that decision because it will give me one more year to work

It emphasizes the need to protect procedural rights even if this prevents the legal system from operating with maximum efficiency. Control theories in criminology are all about social control.

Sarah Mills WE ARE MORE THAN JUST A GRADE: We all have different thought processes and skills‚ so why are we individuals all tested by the same means? Society tries to change us to fit into their puzzle called life‚ when we should be changing the picture. This is the same society that tells us abortions is wrong yet looks down on teenage parents.

Dear 6th grade student‚ If you are reading this you should be on your first day of Middle School. Don’t freak out‚ just relax and do what your teachers tell you to do. Middle School is actually pretty easy as long as you get to class on time‚ pay attention in class‚ and do your work.

It’s a very exhausting field trip‚ but it’s fun! We go
