My High School Experience When I was in 8th grade‚ I remember how excited I was for high school. I could not wait to leave middle school where it seems like I had spent my entire life. I was ready for something new‚ a change of scenery‚ and meeting new people. I wanted to have that new level of freedom and responsibility.

For me‚ I experienced the most eye-opening failure in my freshman and sophomore year of high school. It was hard for me to transition through freshman year with more classes and more classrooms to go to. Also with more older and intimidating students. Though many freshman usually are nervous in their first year of high school‚ some were already acquainted with the upperclassmen and had

On a gloomy February day in 2013‚ I was set to meet my high school counselor for the first time. My mom and I arrived at Niles West and found ourselves waiting in the guidance counselor’s office to decide my classes for freshman year. “Jason?” My head tilted up. “I can meet with you now” my counselor said with an inviting smile.

advise to the current eighth grade class. There are many differences for them to be aware of. Some of those are the futility of the student locker‚ the major change to AB schedules‚ and the many different paths and opportunities that are allowed in High School.

High school is a different experience for everyone. The first three years really blend together and do not seem important‚ but senior year is completely different. Freshman year was full of confusion‚ learning an array of new things. Sophomore year was where life started to get fun and you “belonged” in the high school. Junior year was where you see the little light at the end of the tunnel‚ but it was filled with anxiety and frustration. Senior year is where it all becomes worth it and the rest
