    For most students, the transition from middle school to high school is the evolution from childhood to adulthood. In my case, my middle school graduation was a quick transition for another reason. The first few months of my freshman year had my parents rushing my grandfather in and out of the hospital because of his failing heart. By this point my grandfather had battled off colon cancer, 3 heart attacks, and 2 open heart surgeries. At age 74 he was not a candidate for a heart transplant but he was able to get a defibrillator.…

    Clear skies: one cloud left, two right. Slight breeze from the south, a typical fall day. The SHISH of the club in the swing, and the ball sounding TING off the club over and over. Music is coming from the phone on my golf cart with the no disturb mode turned on. Playing every day alone or with the team, always focused on the game, ignoring the reality of busy high school life.…

    Just surviving in the halls of a high school is how many people try to go about their four years of education, however this will not help you grow into a better person. High school has been a place that can be compared to a weight room for me. I go to the weight room to grow my muscles just the same as I go to high school to grow my ideas, education, and morals. “I’m a peacock, you gotta let me fly!” a quote by the most loved character, Terry Hoitz, describes how everybody in high school feels.…

    High School High school is a time in everyone's life when you discover who you are and plan what you are going to do after you graduate. For me, high school was a time when I learned responsibility, who my true friends were, and how to become a proper adult. After I finished junior high, I was still an irresponsible fourteen year old who was unsure what I wanted to do with my life. For a while I had an idea, I wanted to go into the medical field, but was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to succeed, for I was a constant procrastinator and failed to study for any tests.…

    Dropping Out Of High School Being in high school can be very hard on a teenager because so many things can effect a student’s performance.
