Student success statement

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

What Ralph is saying is that it doesn’t matter what happened before it is what happens now or in the future that is what should be in store for everyone. We have thought about the future not the past because the past is what already happened and we don’t know what is going to happen later on.

Distance education: is a virtual classroom for you?

Part 1

You may want to take a class that that your high school doesn’t offer. Under some circumstances, you can still enroll in the class through distance learning.

Distance education means taking a class without being physically present where it is being taught. Internet based technology lets students participate in lectures and class sessions online from almost anywhere.

Some high schools agree to recognize distance learning credits when they don’t have the resources to offer a course themselves. Distance education is often used to increase options in rural areas and for AP courses.

For you, it might mean doing self-tutorial at home in the venin or participate in class that is 1,000 miles away, along with other high school students. Check with your school counselor to see what’s available

Student success statement

“You must never be fearful about what you are doing when it is right.”

Rosa Parks

What Rosa is saying is that if you are doing something bad you are going to regret it and have second thoughts like what if they find out or how am I going to get away with it. Just simple stuff you do wrong you will regret it but in the other hand if you are doing something right then you are fine nothing to worry about. So remember always do the right thing you won’t regret it.

Additional tips

Although working and going to school is challenging, it can be a rewarding experience if you use some foresight. These tips can help you handle the situation and make the most of your time:

·       Discuss your plans with your family. Balancing the demands of school and work is easier with their support.

·       Start slowly; don’t commit to working a lot of hours immediately.

·       Avoid time conflicts by planning your class and work schedules as far ahead of time as possible.

·       Use your time efficiently. You can use 10 minutes waiting in a line to go over a few pages of assigned reading. If your job has a lot of downtime and your boss has no objection, you can use slow periods to do schoolwork.

·       If you commute to your job on public transportation, bring your schoolwork with you so you can work along the way.

·       Be flexible and willing to make sacrifices. You may have to cut down on some other things you’d like to do because of your school and work commitments.

·       If you have too much on your plate, admit it. Then cut back as needed

·       Schedule relaxation time. Everyone needs some downtime to stay happy and healthy.

Balancing high school and part time work

Part 4

He reminds students that “the activities and courses students choose vary considerably’ so it’s important for young people to keep their individual situations clearly in mind.” MacGowan continues, “for example, student actors should allow for the fact that they won’t have as much time during performance seasons. Student athletes need to remember the times of the year that they’ll be tied up with games and practices. Other students who are in classes that make considerable demands outside of the classroom must keep that reality in mind.”
