Academic New Year Resolutions and what can be done to help.

Every year when New Year’s comes around people make New Year’s Resolutions to essentially set a goal for themselves over the course of the New Year. Most of these resolutions are simple like “I will decrease the amount of soda I drink.” Or “I will perform better at work.” Students here at Menchville have many things that they want to increase or do better for the sake of their high school career. Senior Andrew Collett echoes the thoughts of students “I want to put more time into studying.” Other students like Sophomore Kyle Martin say, “I want to get straight A’s.”

While most students want to study more or get straight A’s there are others focusing on their GPA or are focused on one class in particular. For Senior Myles Burgess declares, “I want to get at least a C in Government.” Kyle Douglas exclaims “Just simply want to pass Geometry.” Senior Rikki Heartny, an early college enrolle, who is focused on college. Rikki reveals, “I hope to do well at TNCC when I get there in January.” Having these Academic resolutions are great but how can you achieve them?

Collett plans, “I will use more hours for studying.”  Martin states, “I will study, pay attention more, and be a model student.” Now for those who have resolutions focused on one class have a different way of achieving their resolutions.  Burgess replies, “I will study the notes before my teacher announces a quiz.” Douglas shouts, “I will work hard until my brain fries.” Now we all know that going to college is hard but Rikki has the confidence that she can pull through. She says, “I will make my classes my first priority.” Think about your Academic New Year’s Resolution and what you can do to achieve that. Who knows, maybe it is easy like studying more or it could be hard like making college classes your first priority.
