New State, New School, and Then New School Again?
September 14, 2016
Have you ever had to move to a new state and go to a whole new school not knowing anybody? How about having to switch schools again right in the middle of school? That was me. I had to move down from Colorado back to my hometown, Arizona.
The move was a mess. We had a tight move to get to Arizona before school started. My family and I made it just in time to get registered for school. The first time it was at Tanque Verde High School. I was making friends and doing well in my classes. It was one month later when I had to switch schools once again. I was stressed. I had just made friends, I was familiar with how Tanque Verde worked. Now it was time to switch once more to Sahuaro High School.
I had to go and register once again. I was nervous. It was right in the middle of a quarter too, when grades had to be submitted. I was either behind in all my classes or was put right in the middle of tests.
The teachers were very understanding. They told me to do the best I can and would help in every step of the way. I was thankful. Even though I had to make up the work, they’re helping me make sure I am on track.
I have only been here two days, but I can already feel that this will be a good year.
