Student Success Statement ANON
"It's better to be alone than to be in bad company."
ANON
Reflection: I agree, 100%. Because if you are alone you don't have to worry about your friends and stuff. Then if you have bad company you can get in trouble and not doing the right thing. That's why you have to look for the right friends that you like. For example, in 8th grade I was sorta hanging around with the bad crowd and I was not getting my work done and my parents were not proud when they saw my report cards. Until I realized im not going to culminate then I started to talk to teachers and was doing all my work, and I did culminate and my parents and I were happy. Now im trying to do very good in high school.

"My Experience So Far at HPIAM"
“My Experience So Far at HPIAM”
My experience so far at HPIAM is okay. Now I know how being
in high school is like. High school is actually pretty fun, at least in this
school I think. I really have to focus and start doing my work because this is
the real deal. Also I’m going to try to have a 2.0 or higher because I am in
the school’s soccer team and a 2.0 average is what I need to stay in the team.
My laziness has really got to me though at home being lazy to do my homework. I
hope I can keep my good grades and the schools soccer team has a great season! I
am very exited to be in the soccer team, that is the most exiting thing so far
in high school for me. Besides soccer my classes are English, Spanish, Health,
Geography, PE, New Media, ICS and Algebra.

Also another thing I learned is always listen to your parents and most of the time their right.CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
