I first came to Topeka High school in August of 2014. It was my freshman year and the first time in stepping into a new school. I was originally supposed to go to Highland Park since it is the same distance from my house to school. But due to transportation reasons, we had to go to Topeka high since it is closer to my house. I’m not sure if I made the right decision though.
The day before my first day of school, I asked my parents about what high school was like for them.
My mom said, “It is one of the most important times of your life when you go from becoming a teenager to becoming an adult. There is nothing to be nervous about, just do your best and we’ll support you all the way.”
My dad added, “All you need to worry about is what you want …show more content…
They tell interesting stories from their past and none of their classes are difficult at all. I believe the most interesting teachers I have met from my Freshman year would have to be Ms. Waldo and Mr. Kassin. Ms. Waldo was really funny and nice most of the time. Her mother’s side of the family was from France and her father’s side of the family was from the United States. She also looks pretty young for age, just like fine wine.
Mr. Kassin is really cool, too. He served as Major for the US Marines way back when and is a proud American. He is always there if I need help with anything and is kind to his classes pretty much all the time. Also, he doesn’t give any assignments that are too hard to complete since they are easy to do.
I had the wrong impressions about this school when I first stepped in, but after my first day, I knew that I made the right choice. I didn’t know what high school was really about since I pretty much learned it from movies and TV. However, thanks to the support from my family and friends, I felt like that the next 4 years will be the best and most important years I will ever spend. The message I want to leave you with is this; Don’t be nervous about anything that might give you the wrong idea about something. As long you have the people you love that support you, you can achieve
