Brad Macgowan, of the career center at newton north high school in Massachusetts, thinks that working can be a valuable part of a student’s life if taken on responsibly. “You can derive a great deal from working, considerably more than just money,” he says. “In most cases, you can acquire a nice dose of discipline and a whole new set of skills and experiences. “In addition, your supervisor may be willing to write a strong college recommendation for you.

School comes first  

Schoolwork, including homework and studying for tests, should always be your top priority. Macgrowan cautions students who do decide to work, “if you are rushing through your assignment … or not studying enough for test because of work, it’s time to cut back or quit and find a less time-consuming job.”

Well the thing you do will reflect in who you are. If you’re a person that to do schoolwork or do thing for the school that shows that you are some of the people that want you to work with them cause you showed them that you are a respectful and a trustful person but if you show them the opposite they will not like you to work with them because the way you act.

So always do the right thing and people will know you are a great person. Choose the right.

Balancing High School and Part-Time Work

Part 2

Voicing your goals to someone else can help you make decisions and figure out your priorities. It can also help you judge whether you can do both – work and study – successfully. To help answer this question, ask yourself:

·    Am I an organized person?

·    What kind of study habits do I have?

·    Do I make good use of my available time?

·    Will I be able to manage my schedule effectively if I take on a part-time job?

Think about the pros and cons of working. On the plus side, a job can teach you about commitment, time management and responsibility – and, of course, handling money. On the minus side, a job can cut into the time you have for sleeping, studying and socializing

Like many high school students, you may want-or need-to work part time. Working takes a lot of time and energy, though, so before getting a job, make sure that you think about your ability to handle both work and your education.

Important Considerations

You have to have to weigh a number of factors when deciding whether to take on a part-time job. It’s important to get as much information as possible, so you can figure out what choice makes the most sense for you.

Schedule a meeting with your school counselor to discuss the idea of working. Talk to your counselor about why you want to work and what type of position you’re seeking.

Choose the right!!!

“If it is not right, do not do it; if it is not true, do not say it.”

 Marcus Aurelius

Roman Emperor from 161 AD to 180 AD

 

 

If you know what you are doing is wrong don’t do it cause that can bring really bad things and if you know what not to say is better because you save your-self from hearing what the other person is going to say to you. No matter where you are at always choose the right.
for example:when you tell someone something you and it's not the right thing to say the person will react to what you said.

Use College Search to look up a specific college’s academic requirement to be sure you are on track to attend the college of your choice.

If you have concerns about your class schedule or progress in school, set up a meeting with your school counselor, teacher or adviser. There are many resources to help you with this process, and with achieving your personal, college and career goals. Without goals, you meander all sorts of directions. Goals give you purpose, direction, enthusiasm, and passion for that which you really desire. Define your goals deliberately, evaluate your goals, and continue working hard until you actually do reach your goals.

Student Success tips

Student Success tips  

1. Attend new student orientation at the beginning of the Fail or spring semester.

6. Be a good listener. Focus and concentrate on main points.

7. Take good notes in class, and review your notes periodically to help you retain information. Index cards with key information are also a helpful way to review.

8. Study! To be successful college student, study at least two hours a week for every hour you spend in class. This is a minimum.

9. Determine an ideal study space, and plan study time when you are at your best to retain information.

10. Maintain a student planner to keep track of important dates and projects.

11. Apply additional time management strategies, including planning, setting goals, and prioritizing school work and your additional responsibilities.

18. Be sure to allow time for physical activity as well as class and study time. This will help you to focus on your studies. Locker rooms and a work-out room are available on campus.

19. (TAA only) Plan Ahead! When you have more than a 30 week-day break in classes you will not be paid unemployment. Be sure to put aside money each week so you have money on the weeks you do not get paid.

“In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.”

Doing the right is the right decision because if you are going to make a decision it should be a wise one and the right one too. Instead of choosing the wrong and doing the bad thing can lead to something you don’t want it to lead in.

The arts

Research indicates that students who participate in the arts often do better in school and on standardized tests. The arts help you recognize patterns, discern differences and similarities, and exercise your mind in unique ways, often outside a traditional classroom setting.

Many colleges require or recommend one or two semesters in the arts. Good choices include studio art, dance, music and drama. Many students have talents and extraordinary abilities in the arts. Students should look within their own repertoire of talents and identify their artistic abilities and take college classes to develop their talents.

Advanced placements program (AP)

To be sure you are ready to take on college-level work, enroll in the most challenging courses you can in high school, such as honors or AP courses. Research consistently shows that students who score a 3.0 or higher on an AP Exam typically experience greater academic success and college graduation rates than students who don’t take AP.

Work hard in your righteous pursuits, and you will reap the benefits of self-fulfillment and job satisfaction. Don’t take shortcuts just to “get by,” instead, take challenging and difficult roads (courses) and reach higher mountain peaks of achievement.

You can better understand local and world events that are happening now by studying the culture and history that has shaped them. Here is a suggested course plan:

·       U.S. history (two semesters)

·       U.S. government (one semester)

·       World history or geography (one semester)

·       One additional semester in the above or other areas

Foreign languages

Repetition is the key to learning a language, and having conversations with others speaking the same language is the best way to learn this new language. Repetition in a fun way will build your skills thoroughly as you seek to mater new languages.

The following subjects and classes are standard fare for success in high school and beyond, whether you plan to attend a four-year or two-year college.

English (language arts)

Take English every year. Traditional courses, such as American and English literature, help you improve your writing skills, reading comprehension and vocabulary.

 

Math

You need algebra and geometry to succeed in college entrance exams and in college math classes—and in many careers. Take them early on. That way, you’ll be able to enroll in advanced science and math in high school, and show colleges you’re ready for higher-level work.

Most colleges look for students who have taken three years of math in high school. The more competitive ones require or recommend four years. Each school has its own program, but some of the courses typically offered are:

·       Algebra 1

·       Algebra 2

·       Geometry

·       Trigonometry

·       Calculus

Guidelines for getting a group together

Here are some guidelines for creating and running a study group: How many? Create a group of four to six people. In a larger group, it’s easy for someone to get left out and smaller groups can too easily get off track.

Who? Pick classmates who seem to share your interest in doing well academically. Look for people who stay alert in class, take notes, ask questions and respond to the teacher’s questions. Include someone who understands the material better than you and can explain the concepts and someone who doesn’t understand it as well, to whom you can explain the material.

Where? Hold study group sessions in a place that is free of distractions and that has room to spread out books and notes.

How long? Meet for no more than two to three hours at a time. Having a time limit helps the group focus. If you know you only have an hour, you’re more likely to stay on task.

When? Try to meet regularly, on the same day and time each week. Treating the study sessions as you would other activities helps you to keep to a schedule and ensures that everyone attends.

Working together helps everyone

You may have noticed that when you’re explaining something you’ve learned to a friend, you begin to understand it better yourself. This happens because, when you explain an idea, you need to think more deeply about it.

The same principle makes study groups useful. Studying with others in a small group is helpful because you:

·       Think out loud.

·       Share ideas.

·       Learn from one another.

In an effective study group, you and other students hash out lesson materials together—explaining concepts, arguing about them, figuring out why one person’s answer differs from another’s—and in the process, you most likely learn more than you would have studying by yourself

Do the reading

You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned –you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:

·       Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.

·       Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest—chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.

·       Look up any words that you don’t understand.

·       Pause to think about whether you understand the material; ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.

·       Take notes instead of highlighting – this makes you think though and rephrase the key points.

·       Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.
