Opportunities

Remember if you would like to attend Operation Starship, you must show good discipline such as good grades, politeness, community service, active learner, etc. So remember to behave.

If you are the type of person who is or wants to be a leader or if you want to work in the UN in the future, you should join the middle school GIN (global issues network). It's similar to the MUN (Model United Nations) but in GIN you represent issues as well as educating others.

The field trip we went on was Korat. It was awesome! I think you will also enjoy it. You get to experience different things.  You might as well try Student Council, trust me or else you’ll regret it like me. You can make big changes if you do it for the school in order to make a difference not to for selfishness or to gain fame.

Field trips are what you guys are always looking forward to, right? When the day comes that you leave the prison called school and ride the vehicle called a bus to a place you-don’t-really-know. Field trips are fun when you have the right attitude, roommates, and when you are comfortable in a good, decent, restaurant/food place/cafeteria. Then when the next day arrives, the fun activities keep you busy until it is over, and you return back to your rooms to write a reflection of what happened that day. Not much fun, is it? But if you think past that, and past the bad food and the bugs in your bed, you may notice that you are actually having fun. The best fun is with your friends.

 Middle school can be fun and sometimes very frustrating especially friends and teachers and homework some friends change and your just not compatible any more because you change to and that’s ok because then you make new friends. And you learn a lot more about people and mostly yourself, Teachers you might hate some at first but then once you get to know them and as long as you keep them on their good side things will run a lot smoother.

 One of my favorite parts of seventh grade this year was going to Korat. Some of my favorite parts of the trip to Korat were going to the rice field and helping plant rice and visiting the school in one of the villages. I also like decorating the pottery at the pottery village. Also, the hotel was very nice.   

Hello new grade sevens. You are now in the middle of middle school! You aren't too young (sixth grade) and you aren't too old (eighth grade). Let me tell you, seventh grade is probably the best year ever! You have much more responsibility and are becoming more mature than you were in elementary school. Everything you are in now is new and exciting and different. It probably doesn't feel different, but things certainly will change. In good ways and bad (mostly good though). Teachers are great and friendly, and you will fit in just fine. I definitely thought that seventh grade was one of the greatest experiences I learned from. The dances are much more fun and the field trips are amazing! There is so much to learn and through out the year, you will learn more about growing older and becoming a mature adult. Your life will definitely become more exciting and full. I loved seventh grade, and I hope you do too.

School for me has been about the same with only a bit more homework, but not too much. Parents are starting to trust you more and let you have more freedom to go places and stay out longer. Friends are about the same but when it comes to relationships more happens in 7th grade than in 6th grade (a lot more) because we are more mature. As I said home work is about the same just with a few extras here and there. In the socials people are more comfortable and try out new things while dancing. Time management in 7th grade is more important because you have more quizzes and tests so you need time to study. This is a thing I struggled with at the begging of the year, but I got better and the year has become a lot easier.
