Sidewalk Essay

I attended Heritage Middle School in East Cleveland. There were kids coming from everywhere: Superior Elementary, Caledonia Elementary, Chambers Elementary and Mayfair Elementary. I had came from Mayfair Elementary school. Middle school was definitely different from elementary school, there was a lot to get used to. The first day of school is always nervous to me, before I get to my class I’m wondering will I have the some of the people I had in elementary school. I was a little relieved to see some other the people I knew in my class. But the other faces I wasn’t familiar with . Switching class was hard to do at first do as time went on it got easy.

My first day in middle school didn’t seem that much different than elementary school only thing that was different was that we switched classes but we had our teachers telling us where to go for our next classes so it wasn’t hard. On like the third day of middle school I was very confused because we had all the big 7th and 8th graders there and the teachers weren’t helping us and telling bus where to go anymore so I would be late to class and my teachers would be mad. It was hard for me to transition to having several teachers instead of one because all of my teachers were very different we had some teachers that were cool and then we had some strict teachers. The work didn’t get much harder math did but not any other subjects, math was very difficult

Starting high school was nerve-wracking for me just like everyone else. I had made the Varsity competition cheerleading team as the first Freshman to do so. I was also one of the first three Freshman to audition and make it into the Wind Ensemble, the top band. Being a Virtual Performing Arts School, where arts are weighed as college courses, it was very competitive to get in. I was surrounded by upperclassmen on both ends of the spectrum and was determined to prove myself.

Middle school is full of good and bad memories. After being here for four years you develop all sorts of memories that you may not even want to remember.

A lot of things that she said were so interesting to me, and the fact that she was so passionate about the kids, made me feel like I was sitting in the classroom with her watching her teach. She was also very specific when talking about whether she felt that she could direct an aide, when she said that as long as they were both there for the kids that she could direct them. I thought that was so important in making sure that not only my behavior and passion is to be there for the kids, but also that anyone who I let in the classroom that I make sure that there first priority is to be there for the children as well.

It was high school; what was I to expect? Hundreds of individuals trying to find their way to their new classes, just like me. You have different people in every class, and sometimes you have to cross the school just to get to one school. I thought I wasn't going to survive. However, I did, fortunately for me, and it was one experience that was totally different from middle school.

We don’t do gym, clusters, lockers, etc… So it is going to be really different next year. Especially because I am going to be the shortest one in the whole school!

I remember my first day of summer school at St. Paul like it was yesterday. It was warm day in July and I was telling my dad how nervous I was going to high school for the first time. He was telling me ill be fine and to not stress so much. I came in a little timid but as the day progressed, i met people and talked to teachers and soon I became confident in my new surroundings. This incident can be applied to my whole high school experience.

A sidewalk protects one from the dangers of the road when you need to go somewhere. It keeps you going towards the destination and helps to give one’s paths to follow. Even though it does influence one's direction, it still gives options. Some options might have danger like crossing the street but it will continue to have a plan for you.

A sidewalk is a safe place for us and children to walk so they are not in the way of cars. Sidewalks are for walking, they have cracks and potholes like people. They have different colors and different textures that make them up just like people in their cultures and situations. Sidewalks guide people on where to go like some people show others where to go.Some sidewalks are smooth, neat, and clean with the grass trimmed just so on the sides but you cannot see what is underneath. Sidewalk always begin somewhere and end somewhere. Through my life I have kept the part of me that people see neat, clean, and smooth, but on the inside i’m shattered.

Middle school: a time of change, new beginnings, and more friends. Switching from the grade school to the middle school came with more responsibilities. I now had to ride the bus to and from school, instead of my parents taking me everyday. Going to the middle school also meant having to change classes. We would not be stuck in the same room all day anymore. This made me nervous that I was not going to be able to find my class, or I was not going to make it on time.
