Since the beginning of high-school, I didn’t start off the way I planned to. My freshman year, my grades were in a slump and I basically gave up towards the end of the year. My sophomore year, I did pick it up a little and began to do my homework more often and study for tests. I still was having trouble scoring on tests, even though I studied for the whole week for the big test. Since starting my junior year at Hoosac, my grades have gone up with great success. I person- ally think the small classes contributed to my improved grades and also hav- ing that time at night to sit down and actually do work. As soon as Student of the Week in November was posted on Hoosac’s Facebook page, I was getting text messages from multiple family members congratulating me before the last class of the day was done. Being in school with students from other countries is awesome, meeting new people from different parts of the world. Not only have my grades gone up, but I enjoy going to school and enjoy my time being here.
