Graduation Speech: Lake Placid Middle School

I am sure it will not be hard to make new friends. The 8th graders are very intimidating but they are actually very friendly and they want to help you through the year. Do not be one of those people who start drama and try to stay out of is. This is a big part of jr. high and you need to avoid it. Just make friends and don’t make a fuss. Make wise choices and do everything thinking about God looking over your shoulder. Think before you do and not do before you think.

The two and a half months of summer ended and I was ready to start 8th grade. I was excited and I found out I was in the same pod with my best friend. I felt confident as I walked into room B5 and greeted Mr. Gill. The year started great and I knew my way to all my classes. I studied a lot more in 8th grade. Nearly every test I studied. And by the end of the marking period I had all A’s and B’s. I brought my lunch from home more often and I participate more in class.

This seventh grade year I was worried. The first thing I was worried about going into seventh grade was, I thought I wouldn´t have any of my friends in my classes. If I didn't have any friends in my classes I wouldn't have anybody to talk to when we have free time to talk at the end of the period and I don't want to sit there and do nothing. The second thing I was worried about going into seventh grade was, I thought I was going to go into the wrong class rooms. Last year I went into the wrong class rooms and I got embarrassed. The third thing I was worried about going into seventh grade was, I thought my classmates and me we're going to have a lot of homework. A couple years ago me and my classmates had a lot of homework for math I was up till like nine o´clock. The fourth thing I was worried about going into seventh grade was, I thought I was going to have mean teachers. In fifth grade there was this teacher she yelled at everybody not one or two kids I mean everybody. The final thing I was worried about going into seventh grade was, I thought I was going to get bullied. Nobody ever knows when they are going to get bullied. One

Hi, seventh grade. You have made it pretty far in school, as in moving up a grade. Now you probably seem really good in school to learning all the tricks to pass a grade. These ways are either legal or illegal in school, they might result in a Conduct Referral or even a suspension, but I hope that you guys never go through that. Now that I’m on my way to high school, and learned a lot in seventh grade, I will help you and hope you guys will take in consideration some advice that’s needed to pass 8th grade in a breeze.

Now that I have you stressing about getting good grades, it is important to know what to stress about and what not to stress about. Don’t stress about upperclassmen bullying you because they won’t, but as a side note I suggest not annoying them. Another thing you shouldn’t worry about is having your friends in the same class as you. Yes it is nice to have your friends in your class, but you will make new friends.

I had numerous concerns about going into seventh grade grade. One thing I was worried about was that the work would get harder. Since we started the school year the work has been easy. In my classes we don't get a lot of homework. Mrs wallace states “ I don't believe in homework.” Many of my other teachers don't give me a lot of homework either. Another worry I had was the teachers would be mean. Some people say that Mrs. Newton would be mean, but she's not. She just has high expectations. Also all my other teachers have been nice and fun. Finally my last worry was football. I was scared I wouldn't start because all the kids came together on one team. Now that the season started I start on defense. Playing together is really fun. Therefore

Hello my name is Joshua Simpson! I am 16 years old and I live in the Great Lake State! After graduating from SC4, I plan on transferring over to Wayne State University to earn my Bachelors of Science in Civil Engineering. When I am not in school, I play the piano and the organ. And I love to draw!! The reason why I am taking this class is because I want to learn about the body and how it works, and also to learn how I can have a healthy life. I hope to gain knowledge from this class about how I can live a healthy and happy life. If I were to chose 4 words to describe me I would chose, hardworking, determined, diligent, and silly! I picked this words because I am always hardworking and diligent in my studies. I am very determined to finish school

Being a seventh grader must be great, but not that great until you realize it is the last day of school and in three months and,bang your back to school only now your in eighth grade. Only now the question is how do you survive and even thrive in this arduous environment? There are many ways to flourish and succeed, and if you want some advice tag along and read on to find out because the little things will go a long way.

You either are in middle school or believe the high school movies you see on TV or you’re about to go or you are already a high school freshman and it’s not going so well. The thing is if you’re worried about the people in high school then you’re worried about the wrong thing. The only thing that you should be worried about in high school is the fact you’re trying to get the hell out of there. Graduate and go. Don’t get too caught though because you’ll end up needing personality too. You need a healthy balance of both keep your grades up and make some good friends. I would go in depth about grades and things but you’ve basically heard all about that already and its school you’re going to hear even more. Just graduate with a 3.5 or higher don’t bullshit get all your credits and make sure you don’t apply for colleges to late don’t procrastinate and make sure you’re walking on stage by the end of senior year.

When the seventh grade year started I had a lot of concerns.The reasons I had concerns are because the seventh grade seems a lot more difficult than the six grade.My older sibling told me that the seventh grade was tough but the first couple weeks of school was not that hard.I knew that was nothing compared when we are working on stuff in the middle of the year.The first week of school was rough.The thing is math is probably the hardest subject in all of my classes.The fears I had going into the seventh grade is for me not to flunk my classes.A couple other of my other worries are my friends in my classes some of friends are in my class some kids oh my football team but I don’t want to be mean but they aren’t my best friends but I consider

People don't listen sometimes because they are next to a friends that is talking but the teacher is explaining good things to you and if you don't pay attention then the teacher may call on you and ask you what you learned. Then you don't’ know what to say because you were to busy talking to your friend. In conclusion, next year when you go into 8th grade try to not to get distracted by your friends and participate in the class to try to show your friends that they should pay attention too.

It is a tough transition going from sixth grade to seventh grade, but I doubled the anxiety by starting a new school. I was very nervous at first, but knowing a few people I played rec softball with helped make the move a little bit easier. I made a lot of new friends who cared and helped me overcome the many obstacles I faced at Sylvania. New school, new challenges, and definitely stepping out of my comfort zone. After every challenge I faced, one important lesson that stuck out to me was to treat people the way you want to be treated. So when I see people getting bullied, I like to help them out because I know what it’s like to deal with something like this. We always need to be kind because we never know the situation someone is in,

Starting 7th grade in a secondary school can be a scary experience for any 12year old with an IEP. We feel as if we are not as smart like the rest of the kids, and others do not understand. When I started 7th grade at Robinson Secondary School I wondered how it would be.

First of all, one of the most important pieces of advice, in my opinion, is coming prepared to school. “Being that kid who always has to ask for pencils annoys everyone. It’s not bad to be prepared.” The kid that Is always asking for materials is usually one of the students that do not pay attention or does not bother coming to school to learn. If you do not have your materials you can fall back in assignments. Here in San Luis high school if we do not bring our computer (which is needed in almost all periods every day ) you most likely miss the notes or you are a day behind in essays, projects, documents, etc. A pencil and paper are also important because sometimes teachers decide to do something different and no one has the

The next day is the first day of second grade. I cannot wait to see my old classmates and meet my new teacher. When we get done eating breakfast, we give mom a hug good-bye then head to the bus stop. It does not feel right, only saying bye to one parent before going to school but my brother, Blake, just tells me that I better get used to it. The school day goes on as usual. I stay to myself a lot. I don’t need a ton of friends or to be the popular one; my only worry at the time is making good grades. All day I think to
