I attended Atrisco Heritage Acadamey High School for my sophomore year.
My expierience at Atrisco was some what not what I had expected for this school.
My Sophomore year was a good time.
I made alot of new friends this year.
I learned how to not be affraid to speak in front of an audience in Mr.Leh's english class.
We had to debate against him in class one day,and he said to not be affraid to debate because it's just another trial in life we have to get over.
What I have learned this year at Atrisco is to just put aside the rules and do my work in class,pay attention,no complaining,just work work work.
The school does not let any student fall behind.
If A student is failing the teacers help as much as they can to get you back on track.
This school is one of the best places to achieve knowledge.
This year has really changed my life around because I better people to socialize with instead of all my old friends who were nothing but trouble for me.
Coming to this school has helped me socially,mentally,emotionally.
I say this because When I first started here I had no idea how friendly my peer's were.
My first day here I had alot of my fellow classmates introduce them selves to me.
Now I learned not to be affraid to go and make new friends.
What I learned about myself this year was that I can do good in school if I just focus on my school work and don't pay attention to all the drama that goes on.
My teachers tought me not to be affraid to ask for help,because everybody isn't perfect in school.
I also learned that I'm very smart at subjects that I thought I was no good at.
Now that I know that I can succeed in school I'm ready for my Junior and Senior year to arrive because I know I can.
I'm no longer the Anthony Garcia who doesn't think he can ever do good.
I am now the Anthony Garcia who isn't affraid to ask for help when needed or speak in front of an audience.
I am no longer affraid to make friends in new places.
