Spring semester has arrived and if you are looking for a fresh start, you're in luck! This is a time to make the necessary changes to become a better you. Whether you are prepping for college or career, improving your grades, being more active in organizations, or volunteering more, the opportunity to your goals is now. Here are a few tips to get you started on reaching your goals this semester:
Prep for College- if you are college bound please check your college checklist to ensure you are on track as for your current grade level (Checklist found here under college admission tab ) Prepare your Schedule- It is time to think about your schedule for next semester. It is important that you are challenging yourself in the courses you are taking at the same time ensuring those classes identify with your interest and long-term goals. If qualified you should consider AP classes. Students interested in concurrent enrollment please look at the prerequisites and complete necessary steps before CAT's Conference (March 31st) Career Exploration- Understanding careers is an important task for everyone. Career exploration can improve your attitudes about your education and career and it also has the tendency to impact your motivation. Start thinking about career camps and attending any career events that we may hold as your college & career coaches. Preparation/Practice- Make sure you are prepping for any upcoming test that you may have. Juniors be aware that you will be taking the ACT in February. It is important that you prepare for this test as it is your key to securing your finances for college as well as college choice. Stay Motivated- Of course, it is easier said than done. How can you keep yourself motivated when the end seems so close? Make sure you are staying diligent at the same times taking care of yourself. However counter-intuitive it seems, getting out and doing thinks will make you more productive. The opposite is also true, however. Don't just give up on everything because it's second semester. You know your vices- so stay away at all cost! Now that you have a fresh start, there's no point in looking back. Finish Well!!!
