High school was one of the biggest challenges. For me it had its ups and it had its down. Sadly it had more downs than ups.
High school was definitely an eye opener for me though; it really made me grow up. My freshmen through junior year was the hardest, I didn’t take school seriously therefore I had a lot of fixing to do.
I wish I could go back and restart high school all over again, but thinking back on it I wouldn’t be grown up and taking care of my business.
I have many people to thank for that, my amazing counselor Nona May. She has been there for me all these years and has stayed by my side and helped me, thank you.
Also my newspaper teacher Michael Reeves, He was there to help me my junior and senior year and he was always pushing me to do my best.
Last but not least my algebra 1 and path to success teacher Coach Hahn, he was ultimately my favorite teacher through the years. Coach Hahn you are the best and made me actually like going to school and trying to learn. If it wasn’t for these people sticking by my side I don’t think I would walking the stage.
Thank you Bowie, its time to start my life.
