Upperclassmen all know what it’s like to be a freshman and worried about entering high school. Being surrounded by new faces, challenges, and experiences can be a scary but exciting time in everyone’s life. Upperclassmen have experienced almost all of high schools trials and tribulations, and have learned valuable life lessons along the way.
Some advice from Britain Marker includes, “Stay out of drama and get a solid group of friends.” This advice is helpful because having a good group of friends can set you up for a drama free high school experience.
Another bit of advice from Lily Hixenbaugh, “Do school activities, join clubs, be a part of leadership because you can get into a good college.” Everyone knows how important it is to be involved and do our best to work toward a successful future.
Additional advice from Aamie Bertolosso is “Make sure you do all your work and don’t procrastinate.” This is important because procrastination is one of the worst things to form into a habit. You’ll fall behind and it can be very difficult to catch up.
Ernesto Mendoza, “Do your work on time. And get good grades.” This is important because turning work in on time is a great habit and can prepare you well for college.
