- Don’t let anyone doubt your abilities. Prove them wrong. Even if it’s yourself!
- Take every chance or opportunity you can get.
- Don’t compare yourself to others; focus on yourself!
- Start your college applications as early as possible!
- Balance your school life and social life! Don’t always try to push everything onto yourself!
- Take a break. We all get burnt out, and taking a break is exactly what we need to get back on our feet and improve even more.
- Senior year goes by so fast (even if you swear you don’t think it does), so make every moment count.
- Try something new! Whether it be a club, sport, or hobby. Do it!
- Get out of your comfort zone! Take those scary opportunities – and who knows? You might like it!
- Do your work and submit your assignments on time!
- Attend our school’s activities and events!
- Interact with new people every day!
- Don’t be afraid to speak up or ask questions!
