Throughout elementary school, I was considered average size in height in my class. In the fifth grade, everyone concluded that I was one of the tallest students in my class. I went out of fifth grade very confident. As I entered middle school I realized that everyone was starting to grow more and I was not. People would constantly say jokes to me like, “Hey, shorty!” and “What’s up, small fry?”. I was constantly being made fun of about my voice as well. I did my best to brush it off, but it…
first started high school Freshman year was kind of a struggle for me. I wasn't taking things as serious as I should have. The transition from middle school to high school was distracting and overwhelming with a much bigger social scene. Sophomore year was my roughest year of high school. My granddad has a stroke and passed away after a long hospital stay. In addition to my hurt and pain I was struggling with Geometry and Chemistry I never gave up and I always came to school early/late for…
The second essay that I revised was my Narrative essay, in this essay I first reread the whole essay. When I finished rereading the essay I went to the introduction and read it again, I then realized that my introduction lacked a good thesis and a hook, so I changed my boring introduction from “July 6, 2016, as I stumble out my house to the sound of a car horn honking only to realize it was my friends in the car impatiently waiting for me to get ready.” to “Have you ever let jealousy motivate…

The first time I met all of the girls in my grade was at the 6th grade orientation.I was still going to school in Truckee when I went to the orientation my school was having their 6th grade orientation as the Incline Middle School was having theirs. I never wanted to move when I first heard that we were going to then about a month later I was a little bit more ok with it. During the summer I was packing and…
The modern day middle school teacher has a lot more to deal with than your elementary and high school level teachers. The middle school teacher is one who is to be an advocate of the rapidly developing eleven to thirteen year olds. These students are undergoing a profound change in their lives, and need someone outside of immediate family to be a responsible adult. Young adolescents need someone who is going to model good behavior, ethics, morals, professionalism, hard work, and responsibility.…
8. Middle School Gym Hallway What is there to say about arguably the worst location to have a locker? The repulsive atmosphere gives off an air of pre-teen drama and hormones. The constant bombardment of middle schoolers who are crying over their “boyfriends” or engaging in burping contests is enough to drive these lockers to the bottom of the list. Not to mention the location, which is pretty inconvenient unless you take middle school science or a world language, and even then the location of…
surgeries, and debt, but being the youngest I always felt like an outcast and forgotten. Through school I found that since I made myself feel that way in my family I acted that way. School wasn’t easy when I didn’t really know how to communicate with the other students. Never through elementary school had it occur to me that I wasn’t very social or involved, but then I went into middle school. Middle school I was invited to my first sleepover when I found out I had horrible anxiety of being…

When middle school students start school they are tiered, and many people think that is normal and won’t affect their grades, safety, or health. Well that is incorrect, research shows that less sleep a student has equals a negative effect on their health, grades, and safety. Sleep is an important part of a growing “teen”, but itis also an important to learning and to safety, plus Without a good amount of sleep, students grades will drop drastically. For example, if someone is a straight “A”…
Luther King Jr. Middle School we have a strict dress code.Strict dress code can keep people from wearing clothes that are in style. An example of trendy clothing is ripped jeans. Here at MLK Middle school our vice principal sees you wearing ripped jeans without leggings, she makes you change into your pe clothes and you also have an automatic detention. Strict dress code should be less strict and should include ripped jeans. I believe that there shouldn’t be a dress code at any school.…
