I have been in high school for over three years now, and in those three years I have never had a study hall period. The four years you are in high school are the most tedious, stressful, yet very important years of your life before college. Over forty-five percent of high school students have part time jobs, or participate in University Interscholastic League (U.I.L.). As a student athlete I spend seven hours at school, three hours at practice, and up to two and a half hours on homework each day…

Students spend enough time at home doing homework at school so when they get home and they…

Throughout the semester in Dr. Kennedy's class I have improved on many writing skills and techniques. In the class I have worked on the meal plan, thesis statements, the flow of the paragraphs, putting research in my essay and writing conventions. Me being an early college student has been challenging, considering that the highest English that I have took is English 2. Also, English 111 0004 is my first real and important college class because I have only taken gym and computer classes. Even…
