The balloons are out, the flowers are in bloom, I smell summer. I smell a summer like no other.

As I traveled through each grade of the Croton-Harmon High School, my personal and academic goals helped to me to really flourish.

Yes. I graduated from the Texans Can Academy, an alternative high school for at-risk students. My level of preparation upon graduation was subpar.

When I started Unity High School I thought that it was going to be boring school because my first choice was Skyline but my mom made me come to this school so I had to obey what my mom wants because she takes care of me and helps me with whatever I need help with so going to the school that she wanted me to go to was the least I could have done. I thought that high school was going to be difficult because the work that my brother would bring home when he was in high school looked really hard and I did not understand most of the work he needed to complete.

However, the four times that I have been at Capp, I have not seen any the diabetic students wash their hand before testing their blood sugar neither do they use an alcohol swab to clean the finger

In the duration of my middle school years, I maintained excellent grades, except I had just one issue that held me back from a satisfying life. That issue was the fact that friends came very hard to me in my middle school years.
