Add intro
- Don’t Constantly Check your Phone
- As much as you think that your phone does not affect your grade, it does, put it away during class.
- Care about your Grade
- You have to care about grades to be able to put your full effort on it.
- Get to Class
- Don’t say 5 more minutes, go to class, it’s not worth it.
- Don’t Procrastinate
- Do it on time, keep your stuff organized to be able to turn in & do your homework on time.
- Pay Attention
- It’s not going to make any sense if you don’t pay attention, like i said put your phone away, shoot for the classes where your friends are not in so your attention is 100% on what you are doing.
Kori
- Don’t Crowd the Hallways.
- If you’re going to stop and talk to friends, don’t stop and talk in the middle of the halls, it makes everyone walking to class mad and possibly late. Move over.
- Stand up for Yourself and Others
- If you see someone being bullied stand up for them and yourself.
- Stay outta Drama
- You may possibly be caught up in drama throughout high school. own up to your mistakes. none of it matters after highschool.
- Don’t Overwhelm Yourself
- If you need help ASK, teachers are more than happy to help. if you’re getting too stressed with homework, take a break for a few minutes then get back to it and work things out piece by piece.
- Don’t over Stress it
- Homework will still be there if you need a break and drama doesn’t need to be there. walk away from it.
Jaxon
- Do your homework
- Don’t have any missing assignments, that’ll lower your grades if you keep missing work. Just take a little time out of your day to do some work, it doesn’t take that long.
- Respect Everyone
- If you respect others, you’ll also be respected, also it’s just common courtesy, so be nice.
- Choose classes of your interests
- Choose classes that will keep your attention, choose one you want to learn from so you’ll actually pay attention and work.
- Always keep a snack or water with you
- Sometimes you’ll get hungry or thirsty and it can be hard to pay attention because your mind is just thinking about food or something to drink.
- Be prepared for anything
- Always be prepared for class and keep a pencil on you, you never know what you’re going to be doing that day in class.
- Get enough sleep
- If you don’t get enough sleep you’ll be tired during class and not take in any information. Get at least 7-8 hours of sleep.
