                                             Guide for Students with Acceptance Letters
 
Many colleges around the world give the opportunity to high school students to learn and be educated at their program. But some students decide not to finish strong in their education and fall behind and grades drop due to the fact a student already obtained their acceptance letter. Decisions must be made accordingly to be successful heading to college. If students decide to slack off or relax in school instead of working hard and being determined to what they want, colleges should be able to revoke their acceptance letter. There are ways to put yourself in a position where you can succeed; staying on task in school and joining a sport can help not be revoked from a college.
First and foremost students that really work hard and is devoted to being something great starts from the basics. Staying on task and being focused is probably the number one rule in school. You have to always be on the top of your assignments in all of your classes. Once your in the process of being enrolled into a college, nothing is going to be handed down to you like it was back in middle school. You must work to maintain the grades you have to be officailly ready for the next step in life, which is getting that college acceptance letter.
Another way to stay on top of things is by joining a sport that you love and enjoy to do! For example I play football and all athletes must have a 2.0 GPA which makes my grade a first priority. Without the grades, no playing time. So joining a sport can help motivate a student maintain that grade the grade they want.
 All in all to make colleges not revoke or deny your acceptance follow the steps i've given you and hopefully it changes your minds about things you do in school. By paying more attention in class, staying on top of all assignments, and try joining a club or sport you love that makes you maintain the high grade point average!

Senior Highlights

Hello my fellow classmates and Ms. Sutter! How are you guys doing today? Im doing great! So I can't believe its our senior year! Time just flies by so fast, from being a nervous freshman knowing nothing about highschool, to a more confident, hardworking senior. This year marks my 4th year playing football for our high school team. I LOVE to play the game of football! It never bores me, every single practice is a day for me to get better at my postion. Football practice maybe fun but it takes hardwork and dedication. Thats the main reason i play, playing football to me gets me ready for life in the future because it trains my work ethic and it is always a challenge. It teaches me never to quit and once I put my mind into something I want to reach I will do it. Next ball is something i'm really excited for! Last year at prom i had a blast! So ball is something that i am really lokking forward to! Last but not least is graduating highschool. Graduating is going to be a sad and happy day! I'm going to really miss my friends and teachers that affected me throughout my journey in South City and at the same time i'm going to be so happy because I made my parents proud.
