[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]High school teacher: Make sure your 9th grader knows that in high school, everything counts in the sense of going on the transcript that colleges will see. Impressions matter - the teachers you meet now are the people you may need recommendations from for summer jobs, internships, awards, and colleges. Maintain academic integrity - your current and future teachers will know if you cheat, believe me. (Refer to previous item) Being on time and entering class with a smile and a hello GOES A LONG WAY. I recommend walking right up to each teacher and saying, "Hi, I'm...." Do your assignments on time - things pile up quickly in high school - don't fall behind. Join a club - there are dozens, and at most schools, they meet at lunch. This is where you might find new friends. Put the phone away and look around - again, you might find your people. [b]Embrace every minute [/b]because it goes by quickly. [/quote] That[/quote]
