Advice To Quincy High School

Improved Essays
I was hoping that I would never step foot in here again, but my prestigious alma mater, Quincy High School, has asked for me to come here and give you freshmen students some valuable advice. Given that I was the chosen one to give advice, it shows that Quincy High was desperate. Nevertheless, I will use this opportunity to share with you all my wit and expertise. First my disciples, always be on time to school. It is never good to be late, unless you have something more important to do. Then it is totally understandable. Being on time to school and class shows to your teachers that you are a dedicated student. Being late, shows to your teachers that you have a social life. Next, respect your peers. Of course, if your peers do not respect you, or you do not like your peers, then you should not feel obliged to respect them. It is important to remember this, that throughout high school, and in life, …show more content…
This is a key piece of information that I’m giving you, because if you pay attention, then you will do exceptionally well in high school which will propel your academic standing. When one has a high academic standing, then they will be among the elite students that universities and colleges will be looking for. Trust me, there is no better reward for doing well in high school then getting into an acclaimed university and taking out a loan that you will not be able to pay off until your sixty. While the advice that I gave you all might seem too much, the amount of advice given to you all does not undermine the substance of it. It is never too early to start planning for your future, and if my advice is followed, I guarantee you my followers that you shall excel in high school and in life. People will envy you. And, if my advice is followed detail by detail, some of you might luck out and end up having children who do not hate you. With that, I wish you all the

    Everyone has their own personal beliefs on life and how to get through it to the best of their ability. Mine is to always overcome adversity and to never let yourself be treated less than others or talked down too. I personally believe that respect is a universal thing and it should be earned with fair and equal treatment. Someone shouldn’t just demand your respect because they’re an adult, a teacher or even a principal, president or pope, I believe that respect is a two way street and that you should give it in order to receive it. But once someone starts getting disrespectful with you I personally think that you should be able to give it right back to them, regardless of their societal stature because at the end of the day we are both humans.…

Even though they are privileged to take this program, they still have to do the same amount of work and effort as much as a full-time college student. College has its differences compared to high school and vice versa.…
