The Shoemaker Bugle

In my four years at JGHS, I can confidently say that I’ve gained knowledge on the do’s and don’ts of high school.

After taking about a handful of AP courses, I want to note that you should not overexert yourself. In this sense I mean don’t over do enrolling in honors and AP classes as it will lead to you burning out and having little to no motivation on doing absolutely anything (at least for me anyway). I advise you that, even though you should take your high school education seriously, have fun, too. While having fun you should also put yourself out there. I encourage you to join any extracurriculars that may hold your interest as it provides new friendships and more to put on your college application. 

Overall, just enjoy these years that you have now because as cheesy as it sounds, high school is gone as soon as it comes.
