my high school education‚ I have been faced with multiple challenges. The most difficult of these took place early June 2014‚ just after the conclusion of my ninth grade scholastic year. My mother was offered an appointment at an international organization in Washington DC‚ USA‚ because of this‚ my brother and I had to move with her to settle there. The move took place within a very short notice and to me‚ it felt like an adventure to the unknown. It was not like moving from one school to another

Math Problems Sometimes the most obvious person is the one you forget to ask. I was a fourteen year old boy‚ going to middle school in San Antonio‚ Texas.

High school is a very defining time in the life of a teenager. While most people believe that high school should be viewed as four years combined‚ the individual years of high school are very different. When looking at the years individually‚ the differences become very evident. Freshman year and senior year‚ for example‚ may be seen as similar in nature‚ when in reality‚ the two years differ greatly. Going into freshman year‚ I thought high school seemed like the coolest thing to have ever happened

I became a sophomore just one year ago and I have enjoyed every bit of the High School. I’ve met new friends and I have seen some old good friends. I have appreciated what I have right now in school‚ grade and teacher wise. All of the teachers have been extremely helpful throughout the time I have been in High school.

When most people think of high school theatre students‚ most visualize a bunch of snobby‚ overdramatic‚ hormonal teenagers‚ constantly reciting lines from plays as if that was how they always spoke. Now while some theatre groups may be like that‚ my high school theatre group certainly was not like that at all. My theatre group better known as‚ Buena Park High School Theatre Production‚ was one of the most welcoming groups in my high school‚ which is what attracted so many students like me who had

As a high school student‚ I have to put much thought into the future. I was born in Guatemala‚ but I was raised in Baton Rouge‚ Louisiana all my life. We came from a very poor place where we had nothing‚ education was low‚ crime was high‚ and food was scarce. When we first came here we honestly didn’t have much. My Mother and I didn’t know English but at the time I was only 3 years old. My mother was carrying my sister so it was very tough at the time for her to find a job because she was expecting

Growing up I never really liked school‚ I did okay in all the subjects‚ but it wasn’t my favorite part of the day. All throughout my k-12 education I always questioned why I had to go to school all year except summer‚ and especially why it had to be so early in the mornings. In the book “Rereading America” there is a passage titled “Against School” by John Taylor Gatto. In the passage Gatto asks “ Do we really need school? I don’t mean the education‚ just forced schooling: six classes a day‚ five
