Transcripts Throughout my four years of high school I maintained a B average and had some great comments from some teachers. I feel like I really do not have a difficult subject I just become very lazy and do not try. Freshman year at my past high school I was really on top of my grades. As I moved to Lemoore and broke my arm I got very lazy my sophomore year. Junior year was a decent year I could have done way better. Now that my senior is here I ended my first semester with a 3.86. I am very happy with my grades and I have noticed I can not be lazy once I am in college. Attendance All through high school I rarely missed school. Now I never received perfect attendance but when I miss school it is all for a very important reason. I do not
When I was in elementary school, I fell behind in many of my classes. This inefficiency was further expanded when my family moved to New Jersey from Massachusetts, and my parents could see that I was having issues. So they took me to therapists and tutors to see what could be done, and they came to the conclusion that I had ADHD. My parents chose not to medicate me, and instead sent to me to various tutoring programs, some of which I stayed in until high school. My grades were average, so there were no complaints. But college is a different
All my life I have been a lazy person, doing just enough to get by. Most of the time, in high school, I was content with just a “C”. The only time I wasn’t, was if it was a class I liked, and I paid attention to. If this was the case, I could have received a 99% on a test and been dissatisfied. But, for the rest of my classes, which were most of my classes, that I didn’t like, I never paid attention to or did homework, and I still managed to do well on tests. So basically I didn’t do anything except take tests and I still got satisfactory grades. In school I was so lazy that there could have been a project due worth about 20% of the final grade and I still wouldn’t do it.
During my early education, meaning elementary school and middle school, I was a very average student. I gave an average amount of effort to my grades, and I received above average results. This did not bother me, until the end of my 8th-grade year. At this point in the year, I was filling out what classes I desired to take the following year, my freshman year. I realized that from this point forward, I had to take my education much more serious, in order to get accepted to whichever college I desired. therefore, when planning my classes, I decided to challenge myself more than I ever have in the past, and take multiple honors courses. I assumed because of my grades, that I had what it took to be an honors-level student, but I was very wrong. One teacher, Mrs. Johnson, made me realize the kind of effort, time and energy needed to be devoted to my education.
Personal narratives allow you to share your life with others and vicariously experience the things that happen around you. Your job as a writer is to put the reader in the midst of the action letting him or her live through an experience. Although a great deal of writing has a thesis, stories are different. A good story creates a dramatic effect, makes us laugh, gives us pleasurable fright, and/or gets us on the edge of our seats. A story has done its job if we can say, "Yes, that captures what living with my father feels like," or "Yes, that’s what being cut from the football team felt like."
Does it even matter if I miss any school? I always do well, so I will not fall behind. Hopefully, there will be no tests. Besides, I never miss school from sickness or vacation. Some people continuously miss school and never get in any sort of trouble.
I am an undocumented student at UC Davis. When I am asked a simple question such as, "describe your personal experiences", I ask myself: Where do I begin?
This semester, the only absence I have was due to the campus wide snow day. In other words, I have not missed any days of class when there was a class happening. Also, I have accumulated no late arrivals. Therefore, I have not lost any points because of my attendance or late arrivals. I am present in class every day, on time, because I personally believe that attendance is a very important aspect in a class (or in everyday life) if you want to succeed.
I remember the year my Highschool team went to the state championship. My team the Kansas City Hawks went up against the twelve time champs The St.Louis Kings. What made them twelve time champs was us. Every time my team went to the championship The Kings met us there. All twelve times The King where the victors. January 25,2024 The Hawks were on a warpath for that Championship.

I wasn’t the easiest the person to work with in middle school, but one thing I did very well was that I kept perfect attendance.
I was born and raised in New York City and lived there until the summer of 2008. In the 14 years of living in New York City, I had numerous events that influenced my life. Each event serves as a memory of something that once was. Trying to decide which memorable event from my past to write about is difficult because many of the events in my life have shaped me into the person I am. To narrow down an event, I am choosing to write about my experience of attending Green River Preserve summer camp located in North Carolina, where I learned to appreciate nature and all the living things around me.
Summer vacation, and school ends for about three months, and then you have as much fun as you can, then back to school… right? Well I had to go to summer school, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Everything was going fine, I had a job after summer school, and that was going fine as well. They say that summer is supposed to be fun and exciting, and it usually is for me and my family. However in July my father started coughing up blood. My father usually doesn’t make it his top priority to go to the doctors, so he waited about four weeks until he really didn’t feel good.
Now with saying that missing school while passing may affect that. Although I'm not saying we should be able to just not come to school. Most people call frequently miss of school truancy. They associate it with “disengagement in school or getting bullied”. This makes perfect sense and is completely understandable.
“Dear Journal, I’m having a hard time writing because I’m weak. I have felt terrible the past couple of days to the point where I just wanted to cry myself to sleep every night and I do not understand why.” This is a journal entry I wrote on June 19, 2014. Growing up, I’ve always had the amazing family, friends, and a relationship with God, laughter was my medicine, and I loved being around people. I went to a Christian school all my life, I was always around the same faces, and I was comfortable in my environment.
Students believe some kids skip and leave school because they want to fit in with other kids and seem cool to them. Other kids skip because they feel that school is a jail cell and they need their freedom, so they leave and come back when their finished doing what they’re doing. Kids go smoke or drink, but these activities can wait until you get home, but also kid’s minds shouldn’t be on activities like that right now. Some kids get tired of certain people, so they leave to stay in peace with themselves or to keep from doing something to someone else. A lot of kids don’t believe in going to class; they don’t like the class or their teacher, so they skip to get away from that particular issue.
