The day I learned not to steal from other people. Getting off the bus it was a bright sunny day, I had bright hopes for my first day of middle school. I walked into the school, I wondered how my day would go. Anything would be infinitely better than elementary school so I was excited. Walking into the school, I saw many different people that I had never seen before, it was honestly a lot to take in at the time and still very new for me. The school was huge, looking around there was artwork all over the walls kids everywhere and huge doors which led all over the school. The teachers were directing the sixth graders to the staircases. When I got to the third floor teachers were handing out schedules to us, I got mine and it directed me to the…
Hello everyone! Eighteen short years ago I was born and given the name Katie. I am a current senior attending Hulett High School. Being asked to choose between several topics to write about myself, I have narrowed it down to only one. The prompt of my choice is “if I could be any animal (alive or extinct) which would it be and why”. Surely everyone will question my decision at first, but I do promise there is a reason behind this madness that I do believe you will see by the end of this…
The world doesn’t run on your time, sadly I learned sooner than I thought. It’s nothing like being in the fifth grade ready to move on to middle school, new friends, new responsibilities, sadly new teachers, and let’s not forget better school lunch. Seven thirty and we’re all waiting on our math teacher. Butterflies in my tummy and the excitement of a new school year made me more nervous than a criminal being question by the cops. Hoping my teacher turns out to be as sweet as the pudding my mom…
MOVING SCHOOLS When I was young I encountered a lot of struggles that I had to overcome, [gradebuster #5: comma splice] and it took me a while, but eventually it happened. One of my struggles that I had to overcome was moving to a different school. I was ahhbout ten years old when I moved schools. It was difficult for me because I was so young, had loved my old school, I was going to be leaving all my friends that I had there, and starting my 5th grade year in a new environment.I felt scared…
Ring! Ring! The buzzing sound from the alarm went off to wake me up to go to school. OHOOOO wait I have school today, that’s why the alarm went off. I did not wake up right away. Instead I hid under my big warm blue blanket until Dad came, and knocked on the door to make sure I am awake for school. When I finally got out of my bed I went to the bathroom started brushing my teeth and washing my face. As I was walking out of my bathroom door to the hall way, my dad started slowing dancing along…

Alone, yet encompassed by the masses. Sequoia Middle School. The previous day, I had come and registered at this school, so consequently I had no idea what to expect, where to go, and who I was going to meet, seeing as how I hadn’t gone to orientation and didn’t have any idea about what this school was like. The first person that I happened to converse with was a yard duty of whom I asked for directions. He seemed to be a younger male, average height, somewhat skinny, and overall a nice person.…
This is a story when my sister and I moved schools. We moved from Bostic Traditional Magnet Elementary School to Pleasantview Elementary School. We moved from Wichita to Derby in about a year. Which means we moved schools very quickly and I lost contact with a lot of my friends. I didn't have much fun because I had know except two of my friends from Bostic. My parents told us when we were in 4th and 2nd grade that we would be moving to Derby because we had bought land in. They said we could…
The One time that I have recognized failure, was when I got kicked out of Arabia Mountain high school. When I finished Bethune middle school, I put in my mind that I would never attend Towers high school. So in months’ time, I got accepted to go to Arabia Mountain and I attended there my freshman year. I made my parents, family and friends so proud. At that point I finally faced that I finally did all I could do to avoid Towers high school. I put my feet up on the desk in relaxation and relief…

After the sub finished the roll, we heard the announcements come on and Mr. Taylor, our principal, told everyone that we had to take cover because we had an intruder in the building. “Ok…
