High School is Not for Everyone Have you ever heard the statement‚ “College is not for everyone”? Well what if we took it a little further and said that high school is not for everyone? Is this a reasonable statement to make and is it sensible enough to even be considered? Carol Jago believes so; she says that entrance to high school ought not be automatic‚ and that only those demonstrating “minimum competency in math‚ reading and writing” be allowed to enroll in high school (191). Should this proposal

Freshman year of high school was an exciting and nerve wrecking time. The first week of school I stuck close to my friend from middle school. We had hung out over the summer nonstop and were extremely close. That first week we did not see each other much during the school day. All our classes seemed to be different except our lunch periods. This friend was someone I trusted and let influence me‚ for better or worse. It was not until a couple months into the school year that I realized how my friend

The First Time I went off the High Dive I remember day after day going to swimming lessons in the summer of 2002 at the Mount Vernon pool. Almost every day I walked by the ladder that seemed to go on forever. I used to sit on the pools edge and watch the older kids do flips and other cool tricks off of the high dive. Many times I had gotten half way up the ladder but couldn’t bring myself to go all the way up. For a seven year old going off the high dive was like a right of passage and a way to

School is place where I have met different people with different ways of culture and living. I have found it interesting meeting new people that don’t share the same beliefs as me because I get to know more about where they came from and what their beliefs are. My freshmen year of high school I met this really nice girl and she was Arabic. It was the first week of school‚ and we had to go to clubs and I didn’t anyone.

good idea for students to finish high school in three years and enter college or the work force one year early? I believe that it is an awesome idea to be able to finish high school early. This would help young adults to be able to experience life beyond school much sooner. Early graduation opens up many opportunities to do things that students may want to during the open year between high school and college instead of going straight to college. Finishing high school early also has its financial advantages
