They revealed to me, “high school can be either your best years or the worst years of your life.” I told them, “I’m going to make the best of it.” But, it turned out to be the Worst Years Of My Life. On the grounds of me being a bad child during the time, I was always goofing off, fooling around, roaming the halls, and most of all never attending school. Before transitioning into high school, student’s was making up these false rumors about high school seniors calling us things like fresh meat and other faux information like that. The information that I was listening previously to about high school had me nervous and terrified. 9th grade year, my first year of high school. As a freshman in high school I didn’t know what to expect. I was …show more content…
I failed twice and this was my third time in 9th grade and at this time everyone knew who I was and what grade I was in and the grade I was supposed to be in. But still then, I was still a troublemaker and I still had that mentality to be who I thought I was. At one point I thought I was never gonna change until I got charged with assault by a teacher ( she will remain anonymous). So by then they got tired of suspending me, giving me work detail, and most of all assigning me to I.S.S because at school I was constantly there and some people referred to I.S.S. as my second known home. After that incident, without hesitation I was sent to “Right Choices.” That was the year when I began to change my ways for the respect of my parents, my teachers, and most of all myself. While I was attending the school I caught up in my credits and I was rewarded “student of the month” and earned other rewards. By the time I returned to BHS It was like I left some sort of a stamp/ imprint on the staff at the school. When I was I returned to BHS I had a whole new mentality that had never knew I had before I attended Right Choices”. I had to show the staff my whole new mindset and behavior, but many believed I was putting on a show. I also had many people show me support. (My parents, Mr. Mcintyre, Mr. Smalls, Ms. Mitchell, and Mr.

    I went outside to find the neighborhood kids playing on the streets. Most of these kids went to my school, Highville Ridge Middle School. Many of the kids had their siblings with them because most moms usually make the oldest take the little ones with them so they can all get out of the house. Anyways I didn’t have to worry about that because today my brother and sister were at their dad’s house. The sky was a dark shade of grey today and it looked like it was going to rain soon.…

    As I walked through the front doors of Allentown Central Catholic High School, I felt a sudden rush of panic. Everything I had once seen and had once been familiar with in middle school quickly vanished into thin air. I was terrified, not because I thought I was going to get lost, but because I knew that every little quiz I took, every little paper I wrote, and every exam I labored over would now count toward my ultimate goal of getting into a prestigious university. I wasn’t scared of new faces, but rather new beginnings and experiences.…

    A new journey in my life began on August 13th, 2014 as my school principal cut the red ribbon celebrating the opening of a brand new high school. Little did I know, it would become a journey of growth and unique experiences unlike any before it, further refining and adding to my inner sculpture of identity and talent. I was going to Liberty High School, therefore it was necessary that I adapt--quickly, yet strategically. Throughout my life, I had never imagined that my high school experience would reach and exceed my expectations in the way that it did. I had the unique opportunity most people don’t get in life: to be part of a grassroots movement in establishing a culture that would enrich future students with tradition and values for many years to come.…

    My high school experience at High Point High School began as frustrating then it became positive. Being academically independent, since elementary school, I did not feel that high school was going to be a major difference, but I did not take into consideration of a new ambiance with new challenges. One thing that remained the same was the fact that I was always reserved and I stayed to myself. I thought that in high school I was going to be able to leave my shell and be more outgoing. I was wrong, I am still shy and still quiet, but high school did teach me valuable concepts that I will carry on through college.…

A wise Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “Man’s mind stretched to a new idea never goes back to its original dimensions.” This quote is an excellent way to describe my experience in high school.…

    That morning I couldn’t think of anything besides the day that laid ahead. Although I was excited I still dreaded leaving the comfort of my warm bed. After I realized it was already 10:20, I shot out of bed and scurried to the shower so I wouldn’t be late. It might’ve been the fastest shower i’d ever taken. Breakfast was the last thing on my mind, even though I knew that I should eat.…

    I repetitively used the excuse that I was competing against the smartest students in the city, and that not doing well was to be expected. These low expectations caused my grades to plummet, and with my grades, my self-confidence fell too. By the time I was a sophomore, I was on the verge of failing all of my classes. I fell into a state where I believed that I couldn’t do anything with my life and there was nothing that I could do to change it. This toxic mindset bled into the other aspects of my life, inside and outside of school.…
