For The Freshmans In Highschool

Here are some ways and tips to make your high school experience years to remember and to never forget.
  1. Find someone who you can follow to class. If Ashley or Josh are in both your first and second periods, then he/she can help you find your way to your next class. High Schools are big and scary at first, so it can’t hurt to have your own personal tour guide. If your classmate is as lost as you are, at least you won’t be lost alone.
  2. Join a club or a sport to keep your occupied and meet new friends. Plus it will look good on any college application you do. You might even get scholarships this way too.
  3. Go to school events Like games,homecoming,prom,grad bash,and etc. These night you can get back and don't wanna regret it.
  4. Making friends outside the ones you hang with. They might change how you look at things. It can also let people know better then who they think you are
  5. Make good study habits.Study! Many people find flashcards helpful studying tools. Flashcards are one of the most efficient ways of studying because by making them, you have already begun to study. Writing down the questions and answers on note cards helps the information stick in your brain just long enough to take that pesky midterm.
  6.  Don't wait til the last minute to do a project. The earlier you start the better. It give you a change to let the teacher to review it and for you to revise it.
  7. Make good first impressions, especially on teachers. The impressions you make during the first week of school affect your entire high school career...with most teachers, if they get it in their heads that you're a good student early you won half the battle.
  8. Organization will save you tons of heartache and extra homework. Keep separate binders, folders, and so on for each class, and remember (however hard it is) to write down ALL your homework in a planner.
  9. Don't be afraid to try something new to celebrate that your in high school. For example, you can try a new perfume or cologne, get your hair cut, or read a new book.
  10. Keep an agenda or to do list! If your forgetful, this will come in handy, BIG TIME! Anytime you get homework or a project, just scribble it in your agenda! Life will be a whole lot easier!
