yeah I do … make God your priority, your studies your passion, your family your weakness sell out to these three things and before you know it youll be on your way to college for free with the best friends anyone could ever hope for.

However if you get tangled up with some dude or fall into what I like to refer too as the drama club then your going to waste 4 of the best yrs of your life….

Have a ball…. enjoy all that highschool has to offer but keep every thing in perspective. Oh yeah, and always get the main thing, the main thing!

Get involved. There are a ton more extracurricular and after school activities in high school. They are a ton of fun and a great way to meet new friends. I can’t tell you the fun I’ve had and people I’ve met in bowling club of all places. Find something that interests you and join it.

I must admit, I’ve never been to a public school. But at my private one, they pile on the work. Have a study plan and be ready to devote a lot of time to homework, especially with AP classes. Sucking up can get you really far….

You will be asked, eventually, if you want to go to a party with alcohol and other stuff like that. By 8th grade you might have already done this. If you have not, I’m not going to be your parent and tell you not to do them, but honestly think about the consequences before you go. Then make a choice.

Hope this helps.

Be yourself.

Do not follow the crowd. Be a Leader.

Never fear being different. Different makes you stand out.

School is priority over everything. Do well in school, and you will be popular. Do well in school, and you have an awesome chance of landing admission to the college of your desires.

Have a goal in mind early on. You can change it when you wish, but have a goal! College. A major you would like to pursue, etc. You can change it at any time, but keep that goal. You need to have something to work for.

Enjoy it! These are the best years of your life! Make those lifelong friends. Live those happy memories now, so you don’t have to wish you did when you are in your 40s.

Take care! Be safe! Stay away from drugs, and BE RESPONSIBLE!!!! Best of luck!

Here is what I wish someone told me before I went into High School:

Everyone is too hung up on their own issues to worry about yours. So be yourself, and go out there. Have some fun, make some friends, and enjoy yourself.

Don’t worry about being a few pounds overweight, because in 20 years you are going to envy how you look now.

Don’t worry about getting the best grades because colleges will take you anyways.

Don’t worry about anything, because your a teenager and now is the time to be stupid, and rebellious, and have a devil may care attitude.

High School is a fun time, have fun!

I would highly recommend making sure you use good time management. if you need to take a class do so. and also. get involved big time! but just balance it out. get involved with a sport, a club, etc etc. and keep your grades up!!! also, start looking into what you want to do. where you want to go. once you choose a school. look at their requirements for acceptance. so at least you have the next for years to prepare and your not trying to qualify at the last minute. i wish i had someone to tell met his my freshman year. also. start studying now for the SAT and ACT tests. take a practice one your sophmore year (junior and senior are the ones that count.. i’d say take it both years so you can improve your score if need be). if you ever need any other advice just hit me up! i have plenty of resources for you!

dont get lazy, dont take AP’s for the sake of college only, take AP classes in courses you are good at and YOU ENJOY

then it wont be such a drag when you have a homework.

dont get nervous about going into High School, it’s not something totally weird. remember you’re just going into another grade with your classmates from last year or ppl who feel similar to the way you do

but once you get into high school, join clubs you like and stick to them till the end of HS

do volunteer work over the summer and take summer school if you can

join sports if thats wat you like and stick to it till the end

be consistent in the activities you do, but if you dont like it, then get into stuff you enjoy,

doing what you love and showing passion will get you far…

GOOD LUCK 😀

stick with your friends and try not to lose them. by the end of high school ppl tend to break off. um…study hard, cuz ur taking ap classes and u deff don’t wanna drop out. what i did last last year was took an easy english class then got good grades and got raised up to honors. looks good in ur college paper thingie.

Congrats, hun! Just study hard. You are going to have a lot more distractions than you did in middle school (older guys, parties, peer pressure, etc.), but do not succomb to them. Be careful with who you hang out with. Even if you think that you won’t pick up bad habits from your friends, it could very easily happen to you. Good luck and stay focused!

stay focused and be urself. try not to worry about other peeps. high school is so overrated; meaning it is not a competition. don’t fall for the first guy u notice. get to know them ahead of time so u won’t get hurt. about ap classes, stay focused and study ahead of time. most peeps in ap classes might be stuck up but try to not be one of those people.
