In elementary school, I wasn’t always the best student. I had problems with paying attention and focusing on assignments. In the 6th grade, I was attended St. David Catholic School in the Lower Ninth Ward. I was playing around in class and being a class clown cause me to repeat the grade. The following year, I returned to the same school trying to prove that I can get out of the 6th grade.
My parents were very skeptical about sending me back to the school, because they I knew that I probably would repeat again. They knew that all of my same friends that I would laugh and joked with would influence not to do my work. My mother wanted me to go back because the school was at the church that we attend and it wasn’t far from my grandfather’s house. …show more content…
I was not as strong in English so practice writing paragraphs and improving my gramma. Also, I would ask questions and pay more attention in class. Some of teachers were proud that I don’t let repeating affect me as other students that repeated. I was making decent grades but I still was having problems. Just when I was trying to humble myself I slipped back into my old ways. I began acting up in class and falling behind in my classwork. The only class I was passing was Gym at the time. My teachers notice that I was slacking and schedule a bunch of parent teacher conferences to try to see was going on with me. The parent teacher conferences only made me worsted. I was getting into fights and even got suspend from school. My parents were furious with me because I was failing and getting into trouble in school. They away any privileges that I had to teach me a lesson to do better in school. I wasn’t able to watch television, used the phone, and surf the internet.
When my privileges were taken away from me, I had to humble myself because I cause a lot stress between myself and parents. They had to pay for my tuition I was not doing what I was suppose do in school. I had to hear my parents fuss and complain how my education was important. I don’t really know how many problems I created by not doing my classwork. I had a chance to get a good education at catholic school, but I blow it. My parents felt like I was wasting their money and if I don’t get my act together I was going to end up in public
