High School Academic Reflection

Fall

You are now about twenty months away from high school graduation. Over the course of those
months, you will be starting to make decisions about who you are as a young adult, where you
want to be, and what you want to do with your life beyond high school. Take a moment to reflect
on where you have been and where you are going.

Think of a class that you have had success with over the course or your high school career. Why
do you think you were successful in this particular class? What did you do to help yourself?
What did your teacher do? What have you discovered about what works for you as a learner?

I have more success in my algebra 2 class because it just comes easy to me. When do seem
to struggle I always ask for help. I ask my classmates or teachers.

Now think of a class that you have struggled with in some way. Why do you think you had a
harder time with this particular class? What did you do/not do that might have impacted the
experience? What might have helped?

I always struggle in my history class because I never can memorize anything. I study the
hardest for it.

At this point, where do you see yourself when you graduate from high school? College, J.C.,
trade school, work world, travel,....?

I plan to attend a 4 year college and I still am thinking about my majors. I wouldn't mind
going to the JC then transferring out.

What goals will you have to accomplish, academically speaking, in order to get yourself to
where you want to be?
