My high school experience would not have been complete without swimming. I have been swimming since the age of 9‚ and I have learned many valuable lessons from this activity.

As high school progressed‚ I continued to swim and to make important relationships with the swimmers on the team‚ and the coach. During my senior swim season‚ the team voted on a captain and I

High school dropouts -- a growing problem in our society‚ or is it? After hearing about dropouts heading back to school to receive a diploma on the local news‚ I often wonder what they were missing out on. I mean‚ does a dropout really need to head back only to solve a quadratic equation or to write an five paragraph essay on The American Revolution? I’m willing to bet that more than half of parents who’ve graduated from high school don’t even know how to solve a quadratic equation or how The American

can be described as abusive and unruly. In the past he has skipped school and deliberately started fights. Also‚ he has no faith. This being a nation founded by Jesus would make him an enemy of America and its values. His only saving grace is a profound love for most social studies and a strong sense of loyalty to those who have managed to make friends with him.

The hair style of high school students has been a controversial issue for many years. The prescribed plain short hair may look tidy‚ but the insistence on the hair length below the ear lobe in the case of girl students‚ which is fixed at one centimeter or at most two‚ is quite unnecessary. Until recently‚ the Mayor of Tainan had tried to persuade the Ministry of Education to give the high schoolers the carte blanche to determine their own hair styles. It is difficult for us to say if the idea is

Extending High School. I don’t think high school should be extended to five years. Many students can barely make it past the first couple years. If high school is extended‚ then there will be an increase in the number of student dropouts. There will be a decrease in the number of high school graduates. Many students don’t like school‚ so an additional year may just be too much. Eventually‚ they will decide to drop out. More conflict will arise for those students who do not get along well with

The Importance of High School High school is the final experience for students during their K-12 years. While many go on to college or technical school‚ high school represents the end of formal education for many students. High school also is a kind of “launching pad” into adult life. Students mature a great deal during these later teenage years‚ developing important work habits and attitudes as they become more independent. However‚ while many high schools give a good education‚ some things

we take a step forward and move on from Middle School and transition to high school. It may be hard for some of us to let go‚ but in the end we have to move on. It was a great three years‚ but now we are stronger‚ independent adolescents ready to start a new chapter. These last three years can be compared to something I love to do outside of school. Many people play sports in school‚ and I’m one of them. The sport in which compares to my Middle School experience is no other than Swimming. From the
