Transcript Reflection

When I took a look at my transcript, I felt full of regret. It is not the real me. Coming into high

school was scary for me. I worried more about the social part of high school than the academic part,

you can see that in my grades from freshman year. I did not put my all into my schoolwork. The same

thing goes for my sophomore year, thats when I got more involved in extracurricular things so I didnt

put too much effort into academics. I had cared more about the social part of high school than

schoolwork , so I put that first. My grades reflect how I was at the point in my life. As you look at my

junior and senior year grades, you can see how I have changed. I was and am still involved in

extracurriculars and I do still go out with my friends all the time, I am just more organized than before. I

know how to manage my time and how to prioritize better. I do care way more about my schoolwork

than I did in my first two years of high school. I am doing the best that I can so that I can end this year

with a 4.0, it is my goal. On the other hand, I think that my attendance throughout high school has been

reasonable. There have been absences, but those are mainly due to doctor appointments, illness, or

because of sporting events. Although, senioritis has hit me. There are MANY days when I wake up and

lay in bed deciding if I want to go to school, I always end up going. This last high school year is almost

over, so I know that I can get through it.
