You Got This STU-Marisa Marohl

Now that we have completed our junior journey and are the new Seniors at our high school, we are looking forward to many different aspects of the upcoming year.  With many classes out of the way, college courses and classes specified to helping us find our future career are now more available than they have ever been in the past.  Also, with it being our last year, it is our last opportunity to get involved in our school clubs.  Not only do we have the excitement of it being our last year, but we also need to be prepared for our first year after high school.  This can involve scholarships, determining our future career, and what we are going to do once high school is completed.

With junior year wrapping up, we have some advice for incoming Juniors.  Junior year brought us many challenges.  With the ACT during the year and many hard courses for us to take, lots of our time was taken up by homework.  Along with that, we started our college tours and started to narrow down what careers we were interested in.  

When we were sophomores at our high school, one of our most dreaded classes was AP Statistics.  Coming into the class, we were nervous about how difficult the class was going to be and after taking the class, we have lots of advice for those who are going to take it.  It is a very difficult class, but with a lot of hard work, you will end up with college credit.

As upperclassmen at our high school, we have gone through many finals.  Coming in as freshman was scary for us, especially with the intimidating rumors passed down by siblings and friends.  However, our transition into high school was not as bad as we thought it was, especially with our participation in sports.  Sports both helped us in transitioning to the high school, but also taught us a lot about time management as it filled up our after school hours.  Our advice to incoming high school students is that high school is manageable as long as you do your schoolwork.  Don't be afraid to get involved!
