What I Wish I’d Known
About Transitioning to UHS:
Current 9th and 10th graders
share words of wisdom
FOCUS on classes more
than pointless drama
(Don’t create drama)
Be ready to WORK!
Stay on top of your priorities:
School First!
Any missing work can drop
grades very quickly
and easily.
It’s not so BIG.
Not so BAD.
There are no quarters, only
semesters. You keep your
grade until the end of the
semester.
It’s not big, and it is easy to
get around.
Stay up on work.
Put school before
anything else.
AP Prep classes aren’t as hard
as they seem, so try them.
Your grade can go from an “A”
to an “F” in a day!
Use Study Support to get
homework done.
Make sure you do all your
work and study for tests or
you will fail!!
Don’t get too excited.
Keep up with your work.
Get involved with sports or
clubs.
The seniors “upper-classmen”
are not mean. They become
your friends.
It’s not that big,
you won’t get lost.
Do ALL work and homework so
the teachers will leave you
alone.
I wish I had known there were
three floors.
Avoid the middle staircase
(when possible).
Use Study Support wisely.
Always dress for PE!
Stay on Ms. Yarber’s good
side. 
Keep good study habits and
do your homework.
Join Drama Club.
Ask a lot of questions because
everything might not come as
easy as it did in middle school.
Take as many classes as you
can.
Know what you want to be in
the future.
Be prepared for hard work.
Pick your friends wisely. Don’t
be upset if you drift from your
friends.
High school is fun. First thing
you have to know is to follow
the flow of people. The halls
get really crowded, but keep
your head up and
concentrate; you will have
success.
