I’m actually really sad because internally I feel like I’m still 10 and four years flew by too quickly 
@applejuice007 Well good luck , hope you make the team!
I hope we get more freshman on this thread when school starts back in most states. It would be nice if we could be really active like the other high school threads.
Hi guys! You guys are so lucky to have such wide selections at your schools.
This year I have:
English I
Advanced Math ( after algebra II and before Precalculus)
Chemistry (sophomore year)
French I
Elements of Fiction
Writing Workshop
Choir
I’m in an arts boarding school, hence the weird classes haha.
How do you guys have so many course offerings? Are you guys from public schools or…?
OH yeah, I’m going to Interlochen Arts Academy as a creative writing major. I’m from the Philippines (I’m Chinese, though). I’m so happy to be on this thread!
@pointelessness I got to a public school, are course offering is okay we only have like 5 AP classes.
School starts on Monday and I got most of my supplies. I’m getting kind of nervous, my school is really big and it’s hard to find classes. Also I don’t think I will have time to go to my locker a lot, and I think I have to much to carry. I’m planning on carrying my folder, two 5 subject notebooks/ notebinders, planner, and pencil case.
My Environmental Science is going on a river rafting trip with the Intro to Agriculture students. I’m excited for it. We’re going to take a raft down the river for a few hours and then we’re going to test the water and soil to learn what goes into it and stuff.
We’ve got Homecoming coming up soon and that means we have a parade and dance. Since I’m in Student Council, that means I get to help design the 2021 Float. I want to do something related to basketball, but I know that probably won’t happen. More importantly, though, is the semi-formal dance. I really want to ask this boy but I don’t know if he likes me. We’ve been friends for years and people say he likes me and would go with me but I’m fat and stuff so boys don’t look too fondly on that. Oh well, he’s still my friend, so if I never end up asking him I’ll just go with my friends.
I have basketball pre-season workouts starting next week! We’ve been chatting in the GroupMe about our player packs. Apparently they’re $200 and we’re going to get a t-shirt, a warmup suit, a pair of shorts, a bag, and a pair of shoes. The team is going to do pumpkin sales so we can pay off our money. I’m hoping to be a JV starter but I know there are like no chances of that happening. Meanwhile, I have 2 friends who are probably going to be Varsity… That doesn’t matter, I’m just excited to play.
Tomorrow my mom and I are going down to visit my sister at college. We’re going to have lunch with her, walk around the campus, and look at her dorm room now that she’s all moved in.
I have all As right now which I’m pretty happy about. Lots of kids in my English class have Cs but I’m hanging on with an A. I have a 129 percent in Algebra 2! I do a bunch of extra ALEKS topics a day so I’m really padding my grade because my teacher gives a lot of extra credit for each topic done. I’ve already finished 50% of the course! I hope to be done early so I can take Pre-Calculus online the second semester and during the summer. I like my Spanish teacher a lot. We have two Spanish teachers- one teaches Intro, 1, and 2, and the other teaches 2, 3, and 4. I have the teacher that teaches 2, 3, and 4. She’s a really good teacher and explains the grammar really well. Right now we’re working on imperfect verbs. Environmental Science is really fun, but not because of the coursework (the work’s not bad). There are two juniors and two seniors I sit by and they’re really funny. One junior does rodeos and people clown with him a lot. It’s incredibly funny.
Sorry, this was really long, I just love talking about school!
I legitimately can’t wait for school cuz I’m so bored rn and I really wanna meet everybody and I am bored out of my SKULL at home rn. Also what’s Groupme? is it like a thing at boarding schools?? lol
GroupMe is like an app you can use to easily make group chats. It’s used for sports teams here 
My ALEKS just went all SORTS of weird on me. I know a group of kids (including me) in my Algebra 2 Advanced class were talking about finishing early so we could dive into online Pre-Calc for the second semester, but I never thought it would actually happen.
Now I have 550 more topics due by January 3! Not exactly what I expected. I looked at the final 3 chapters and they’re all trigonometry. This’ll be fun.
Class of 21 right here!
Today was my first day! I like all of my teachers, and we were assigned homework on the first which I was expecting. I’m the only girl in my AP computer science class. I also kept getting lost throughout the day, but it was fun for the most part.
Tip of advice for everyone going to school, starting as a freshman: Don’t forget to do your work, and do not procrastinate! Also, make the most of freshman year, it is a time of discovery!
Finished my first week of highschool! We’re reading the great gatsby in English which is a really good book. We started taking notes in french class and my french teacher actually wants us to learn how to speak the language. Algebra is really easy so far. We haven’t done anything in history or computer science. We are starting Chemistry topics in physical science.
At my school all freshman are required to do physical science. First semester is chemistry and second is physics. When we get to chemistry and physics we already finished the typical first semester of chemistry and physics so by second semester we learn topics that are taught in AP chemistry and physics.
hey guys! finished my first day today… so far I’m really liking my Spanish & English teachers. I think my favorite class will be Spanish, they way we went over the material in the syllabus made it seem actually challenging.
Oh my goodness I had my first preseason basketball practice today. I’m so out of shape!
Luckily, I didn’t do as bad as I thought I would. I made some good plays. I’m in pain, though. My feet are so sore!
My French teacher is so annoying, she said that turning in our syllabus was worth bonus points. She put it in as 3/5 instead of putting it in as 3 bonus points so now I have a D even though I’m supposed to have over 100%.
@stanford200381 can you maybe you can talk to your French teacher about that? Tell me how it goes.
What sports is everyone doing this year?
I’m on my 3rd year of cross country and that is my athletic limit for sports
I’m doing basketball and track.
