When I was in the seventh grade me and My friends were skipping class. Skipping class one day My mom chose to get me from school unanimously. While skipping class in the gym, I was playing basket When I heard my name get called for early dismissal. When I made it to the office, I ashamed of my behavior and ashamed of the fact I embarrass my mom. As a result of skipping I had chores, homework, and in school suspension.
Eventually, I made it to the office to find out that my teachers were nice enough to let me make up all the homework. My teachers gave me so much homework it felt like I was writing a book. I had about ten sheets per class that my teachers needed me to turn at the start of class. I stayed up for hours doing homework. Meanwhile,
Finally, I learned how to be more responsible by myself. In my last classes, my teachers were technically always there to tell me step by step what to do and how to do my assignments. In a certain way, it made me kind of lazy and entirely dependent of my teachers. However in this course it was not like that; instead, my instructor just gave me the assignments, instructions, and deadlines, and I must write my essays and summited it on time. This absence of guide absolutely made me to react that it was time to me to do my assignments by myself, demonstrate what I know, and ask for help just whenever it is
When I was entering into High School, I tried to join as many clubs as I can, since I wanted not only to be superior in grades, but also extracurricular activities. So as usual, I joined Key Club. At first volunteering at the events was fun, but as I went to more events, it felt as if it was a chore. I did not feel any passion; it was rather tiresome.
I am completely embarrassed about that. I know I should have forced myself, no matter how tired I was, to finish everything. And not just do it to get it done, which I also did a lot, but to do things and give it my best effort and spend as much time as possible fixing mistakes and making it as best as I can. Something in these past years that has tripped me up the most is forming and withholding a connection with most of my teachers. At times I am not the best at making “friends” with my teachers even though I know that is a very important aspect of my school
Before I enrolled into SAC, I was a non-fan of sports, nervous, young man, who heard about SAC from a friend in Upper School and has tons of hopes for Grade 9. Something was hold me back to go to SAC. , although that "something” terminated after I knew that everyone were Andrean Brothers and that's why I'm currently aiming to perfect the role of a well-rounded citizen. As they say, “Friends are the most ingredient in the recipe of life”. Friends, like Daniel Zhao, who told me about this school changed my whole life. Once I stepped on Andrean soil, I knew that I was part of something special. In addition, I never had "fun" in sports events because I thought I might get hurt. Yet when I joined SAC sports teams, I was afraid
Everyone seemed to be having the time of their lives, the feeling of being free from high school finally sinking into their minds. Forgetting about all of their problems for the night, and letting loose. My mom always says that I’ll regret this when I grow up; not living the full high school experience. But what is really considered the “high school experience”? It is just going to parties, homecoming dances, prom, and being in relationships? How cliché.
Then it turned out I was wrong, one of the girl had a job and worked late and another girl had to take care of her siblings and the last girl just didn’t care. No one had told me a single thing that they had trouble they just thought everything was going to be alright. The only thing I could do was try to finish as much as I could before the period was over and turn in what I had. I dint get such a good grade for that week’s assignment and after that I had learned that the group of girls I was in was planning to drop the AP class and that they didn’t care what they got in the
Ever since I was young I've learned many lessons. Everyone has got in trouble for doing something they not supposed to do. I remember some lessons and put them to use in my life but some I simply forget. The more lessons you learn the more you can do better and have better knowledge about things. I think life lessons are the best lessons learned and they also helps build you as a character. This was truly a lesson learned. Life lessons can tell a lot about you to many of your peers. There is a lot to tell young people you know to help them overcome obstacles in life. First, when I was 10 I failed to give my parents a bad note from my teachers. I left the note in my room, and when i woke up my mom found the note. My mom and dad asked me
almost out. The next day of school I started switching classes and I felt nervous because I
This year has to be one of the most frustrating years I have ever had. I never been a person who likes to do homework or sometimes even class work. First semester was the roughest part of my senior year. I was taking zeroes for assignments and failing classes that I didn’t care about. I was always working on either credit recovery or grade repair. Once second semester came I realized that I was going to have to step up my game. I slowly made progress throughout the second semester but was still in a deep situation because of first semester. I never realized how much people wanted to see me walk
Of course, I did all the work that was asked. If I could change a few things in the past for my class, it would be to start on the assignment the day it was received and follow the plans I made on my calendar then I would have no problem. I would also change my thought process and not procrastinate so much that I would tell myself that I would continue this assignment later when I set it off till the very end and I have everything bundled up on me the night before it is due. Procrastination only gets you so far. It is better to follow a plan and stick with it besides ignoring it and risking my whole semester because I could not follow simple instructions I made for myself. Not only can the teacher help with assignments such as essays or looking over something that you aren’t sure is right; Even though this is not an English class the writing center helps for anything in relation to essays or really anything towards putting words into sentences correctly and having someone else look after
The reason I got sent to alternative school was because I brought weed to school. I had the weed because some friend gave me the weed on a Saturday and I told my friend I had it. I told him I was going to get rid of the weed because I had no need for it but, he told me to give it to him. I gave it to him on a Thursday morning and he got caught by Officer Massy and Mrs. Early. They came to my class right after 2nd period and took me to Officer Massy’s office. Then he asked me about the incident and I told him everything, I stayed in the front office all day. I believe this placement was fair because now I won’t do this ever again and I’m going to learn to make better choices in the future.
Throughout the semester, I pushed myself by seeing my tutor every Tuesday and sometimes Thursday mornings, for additional help on my writing skills and proofreads. I also took my time with my assessments, quizzes, and worksheet, and making sure I would ask my peers and/ or my instructor any questions. I also did not miss a day of class, because for me it is important to come to class, because every
Try to imagine being homeschooled near your entire life before high school, then moving from Los Angeles to Miami and starting as a freshman at one of the country’s largest high schools. With 4,500 students, 93% minority enrollment, as well as English being a second language what challenges do you think you would face? How would you approach something like this? Would you be a little scared? I wasn’t, I am a Military brat and I was eager to dive in head first on Expert Mode.
For most of what I remember to be my middle school life, I tried my best not to become involved with any of the gossip and drama in the various networks of my class. Rarely did I ever engage in group conversations or even one-to-one conversations for that matter. In fact, any type and degree of social interaction seemed exhausting to me. Therefore, I usually stood away from the general population and kept to myself.
This was it. I was expelled from the school. My life was over. I didn’t care about my other friends who were with me; they all kind of disappeared away from me. All I was thinking of now was myself and the trouble I was in and predicting what will happen when will get home and tell this story to my parents.
