¨Walk the hallways with a smile. You never know what anyone’s going through. Just be happy and experience joy everywhere.¨ – Trae Gil ¨Enjoy every moment. If your questioning on whether you should do it or not, you should just DO IT!¨ – Gizelle Garcia ¨Don’t take advantage of your teachers. Use your teachers wisely and focus on school.¨ – Kaylie Jade ¨Be responsible for your assignments and don’t rely on others to do it for you.¨ – Olivia Fico ¨You should want to get more involved. This can stem from anything to shortcuts and maybe even public speaking depending on what you decide to do. Time isn’t the case for everyone though, life could hit you faster than others and you can and will fall behind. Yet it never had anything to do with getting hit, it’s about if you can take it on the chin and ask for more.¨ – Devin McKay ¨Do the things you’re truly passionate about, don’t waste time on the things you don’t care about.¨ – Thomas Prince
¨These 4 years go by way to fast so make sure you’re appreciating every moment because soon they’ll just be your memories.¨ – Victoria Vandewater ¨Take whatever opportunity is given to you. Whether that be in sports or performing, always take that opportunity that may propel you to the next level.¨ – Kadaj Johnson ¨Choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong! The choices you make will determine your success. Be intentional about your goals. Lock in!¨ – Kinoa Westerlund “Find a club or activity to join. It’s important to fill your time with things you like, especially when in high school.” – Chloe Heiser
¨Find a good and small group of friends that just trust and will hold you accountable. You don’t have to have the biggest friend group because you will eventually stop talking to most of them anyway. A small friend group typically are the ones that survive high school.¨ – Melvin Whitehead ¨Don’t procrastinate and don’t be afraid to just do things. High schools about experience and you would regret it if you don’t do things in high school, but don’t procrastinate because it’ll definitely catch up to you later and you’ll regret it.¨ – Jody Dela Cruz ¨Don’t take a moment for granted and enjoy everything while it lasts.¨ – Chloe Perez
¨Take risks. Get yourself out there. You only live once.¨ – Danielle Critton ¨Remember you’re still a child. Freshman year I thought I was so grown, obviously I wasn’t. I was 14. Just remember that and you’re gonna learn things and make mistakes, and that’s okay because it’s a part of the process. And the people who are mean to you in highschool, they don’t matter. I know it feels like it does but you’ll graduate and they won’t.¨ – Danica Rohaly ¨Don’t stay in your comfort zone all 4 years. That’s what limits you in what you think you can do.¨ – Sophie Landau ¨Don’t stress about the things you can’t control.¨ – Jonah Maryott
