A Formal Request From Your Daughter

From my experience, as a student myself, I can relate to the impression of being unprepared for life after high school. During my high school years, many teachers do not clarify the lesson and expect students to understand the materials by a certain time. Learning only half a chapter and must learned two chapters by the next day. Some schools, however, only cover subjects

The idea that the American education system requires its students to attend school for a full 13 years is absurd. The average student does not need 13 years of high school to be prepared for graduation and college, and those who do require that much attention most likely would not succeed in college anyways. In the typical high school, students and teachers waste more time focusing on sports and social issues rather than actual schooling. When one truly realizes how many days are wasted at sporting events or on silly pep rallies and activities, then it becomes clear why it’s a waste to attend school for such a large amount of time.

Abigail Adams thinks the place is ok. The text states, "The house is upon a grand and superb scale, requiring about thirty servants to attend and keep the apartments in proper order." This proves that the people working have to keep the place in order, but it takes alot of people. The text states, "The lighting of the apartments, from the kitchen to the parlors and chambers, is a tax indeed." This proves that the lighting could be expensive looking and may cost alot to keep the lights on. The text states, "Fortunately, a straggling man came up with us, and we engaged him as a guide to extricate us out of our difficulty; but woods are all you can see from Baltimore until you reach the city." This

An average person spends about 9% of his or her life in school. That’s roughly 14,000 hours in school from the time you enter kindergarten, until the time you graduate high school. Growing up we almost always swear that going to school is the worst possible thing our parents could ever make us do. We thought of it as a punishment rather than a privilege. I had these same emotions majority of my school career, until I met the one teacher who made me excited to come to school every day.

But we tend to forget that, as Drake once proudly proclaimed, “YOLO.” You only live once. High school is over now, and we can no longer be the careless teenagers we once were. So ask yourselves this question: Did you make the most of this time period? While it doesn't hurt to study for tests and do homework regularly, it does hurt to sacrifice your social life as a consequence. If you find that you were leaning toward one of these extremes in high school, pursue a more balanced lifestyle in college. And never let the uncertainty of the future get the best of you.

When people tell you that high school would be the best time of your life, you don’t really understand the magnitude of what they’re saying until your time is coming to an end. A lot of people say that you “find yourself” in college. I, however, had the advantage of finding myself in high school. These past six years have been awesome, and I really mean it. I know it might not seem believable for a high school student to enjoy school, but I’m not lying about this stuff. I felt this way even before there was a scholarship to apply for. My mom taught me from a young age to enjoy going to school, and as much stress as it might have caused me over the years, I still loved every second of it. It’s easy to focus on the undesirable parts like sleep

I just can’t believe there is only few more days of high school left. As the days are getting closer and closer, it's getting sad. I still remember the day I stepped into Maine East High School as a Freshman, at that time, all I wished for was to graduate from this school with good grades. High school was not the way I imagined, it is way different from what I thought and definitely different from Middle School. Freshman year was the “exploring/adventure” year, finding where each classes were, what activities/clubs were offered at this school and many more. Freshman year went quickly and then Sophomore year came up. Sophomore year was probably the least stressful year in high school but from Sophomore year my family and friends started asking me the scariest question “What are you doing after high school, which career?

High school seems like the longest four years of a student’s life. Coming to

I hope your daughter is doing well, not only physically, but also emotionally. I really don’t know what I would’ve done if that happened to any of my girls. I am glad you took her away from the situation all together because it would probably help on her physical and mental healing process.

She just turned sixteen and goes to her brother’s school. At one time, she made good grades and loved school, but now she hates it and has trouble maintaining her grades. Last year she had some problems and hasn’t recovered the way her father and I wanted.”

In my high school career, I will have two million minutes to make the best of it. These two million minutes correspond with all four years of my high school experience, and every single minute matters. My future relies on this time, if I slack off and do not make the most of my time, I will most likely not be able to get into a good college, and that would start the downfall to the rest of my future. From the very start in my freshmen year, here at F.W. Springtead High, I have made goals that I plan to stick to in order to make the best of my two million

For thirteen years, assuming students enter the school system during kindergarten, students are conditioned to adhere to certain rituals and practices to prepare them for a future in college and career. Students are required to spend roughly nine months in classrooms, seven hours a day, exercising their minds and filling their brains with a new supply of information. Additionally, countless hours of standardized testing are spent analyzing students’ ability to retain and apply their knowledge. According to school systems, by the time a student leaves high school he or she should be adequately prepared to face the next stage in his or her life.

It is with great grief that I write you this letter in regards to the passing of your daughter. I wish that my sincere condolences would suffice during your painful trials, however, considering the circumstance, neglecting to explain to you the reasoning for the actions that took place on the ship would be unjust on my part. My dear friends, you are at least owed an explanation for the tragic sacrifice of your daughter, of which I intend to give you.

Seeing the country, meeting new people, learning new life skills — who could ask for more from a job right out of college? We are thrilled that our daughter is seeing so much of the United States in a way that she never would have before. Every week we are amazed at the energy it takes to usher a new group of young women through Recruitment and work with all of the diverse personalities.

The message I’m trying to get across is that as a female a lot of the times we are over protected as a kid that once that transition to college happens, disorientation happens and all these bad decisions start being made. I used alcohol and lifestyle to get my message across. The reason why I chose to write a letter to my daughter is because a mother will always be more thoughtful with her kids and making a letter seem more deep and thoughtful, more than a text message or e-mail would. Having the message being such a hard topic, but usual problem I thought it was important to talk about how females can even get rapped, or take advantage of while being intoxicated. To support my argument, I talked about why females drink and a real life story
