I don’t think so. If you did, you could do high school over again–in the classroom and in your extracurriculars. Since you can’t, you do need to know that if you are a rising freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, you’ve got time. R E A L L Y, you have a better shot at fixing things now than you ever will have again. That’s a great thing about high school and college–when you start either, you have a clean slate. My counselor reminds students that they get as much out of the high school or college experience as they put in it–so . . . inve$t in yourself.
Funny thing–my counselor also notes that if graduating seniors take their own advice, they’ll do really well in college–in and out of the classroom–and in life after college. So . . . don’t be up a tree like my friend here.
No matter where you are on the school scale–take heed of these words of wisdom from the Class of 2010☺! If I could go through high school again, I’d:
be more involved
work harder and enjoy more things
take harder classes
stress less
not change a thing
actually make more of an effort in the classroom and in activities
review more for classes
focus on clubs and activities I was passionate about
realize grades in my freshman and sophomore years mattered
dedicate more time to learning
try to reach out to others and try to develop more friendships
try to hang out with friends more
Take it SLOWLY and not wish it away–it’s only four years
Graduation is almost here. Where will you be when you graduate from high school–accomplished or wishing for a do over? The choices are up to you–go out and make your mark. Give it everything you’ve got.
Woof,
Clyde
