On a typical pleasant day of June, I heard someone coming through the hallway like a motorcycle passing by. The alpine white door opened and my brother picked me up into the air and said "We're moving!" I looked at him confused thinking about "Where are we go" or " Why are we leaving?" Moving from Queens to Long Island has taught me to become a better student; achieved more by particiapate in programs , and activities. Living in Elmhurst, Queen when I was younger, was really interesting.…

Almost two years ago, in the middle of my sophomore year of high school, I packed up everything and moved from a small town in Georgia to a much larger town in Michigan. I had lived in Georgia for my entire life, and I knew just about everything in Michigan would be different: the accents, the weather, the population of my town, the list goes on. Despite this, I was open to leaving my home state behind. Both of my parents obtained better jobs, and we would be just a few short hours from family that I typically only saw once a year. When I started school in Michigan, I had to adjust to a new schedule and meeting new people.…

New school, new friends, and new opportunities came around every corner my freshman year. Before I moved to Cincinnati Ohio my life was completely different from what I experience now. I went to a small methodist school in Naples Florida there were about 15 kids in my eighth grade classroom. The school in general was very strict, very religious, and very vigorous. That school was all I had every known…
It was still eighth grade and not even second semester. In December, we moved to Franklin, Indiana. A whole new school, a whole new group of friends for the second time. This time was the hardest on me mentally; I cried everyday for the first month and didn’t make any friends for a while.…
After my mom passed away three years ago because of a car crash my dad and I decided to move to San Mateo, California. Everything was new to my father and I, but we had to find a way to move on, moving from Michigan to California was a huge difference.

Well, in just one week I’ll be starting school at San Mateo Mountain High School.…

Usually people would ask me, “Hey Danish, did you play the latest Battlefield game? The plot is astonishing!” What I could respond with was, “Sorry, I didn’t get that game yet.” Somebody else would ask, “Did you see what happens when you play the most popular map in the game?” Being a boy in middle school usually leaves you with two options when kids sit down to talk during lunch: Either they talk about video games or about the latest gossip trending in the school.…
I’ve been in the same school system my entire life, and was nervous to start a new. Growing up I had a negative connotation associated with change; moving taught me that it is important to make the best of your situation, and not all change is bad. It was a rainy first day of school, I had an uneasy feeling the night prior, , without much sleep. My body felt sluggish, and I looked like a train wreck.…
One right of passage I have experienced was going to Middle School for the first time it felt kinda weird. But I like walking to school and I liked the food and I thought Advisory was fun because at christmas and end of school year we had pizza. I learned that middle school was harder than elementary School and had better lunches, and we got to be on our electronics at lunch and in the morning.…

Going to these three different schools has led me to where I am today. I’ve experienced a lot throughout the past couple of years.…
Welcome back to school! The reason you’re reading this is because you’ve been told to, but I hope by the end of this letter you will have learned something from my experiences as a 10th grader. It isn’t as big and scary as it may seem, and before you know it, you will be writing one of these letters yourself, passing on knowledge to some other upcoming tenth grader. I have learned many things this year, both academic and non-academic, but what I think is most important is that you appreciate your teachers, compliment other people, know that it’s okay to cry, and most of all, take care of yourself. Our teachers are the reason we learn and grow, and they are the most vital part of our education.…
