How's the school year going so far? We are almost to midterms. Are your grades what you want them to be? If not, now's the time to change them.
First thing I'd do is look at why you are not doing well. Is the class too hard? Are you not doing the homework? Did you not do well on a test? Have you been absent a lot? If the answer to one of these questions is "yes," what can you do to change it. Can you still turn in assignments? Can you re-take a test? Can you start attending more?
Secondly, talk to your teachers. Believe it or not, they want you to succeed and are usually very willing to help you.
Now's the time to take responsibility for your grades. If you can get them to a good point now, life will be much easier later on. It's always so much more work to have to catch up.
If you need help figuring out a way to raise your grades, come talk to me or send me an email (tjarnesen1@graniteschools.org). We can make a plan together and work to see improvement. I truly believe that every student at Kearns High School can be successful.
