� LEADERSHIP SKILLS are as important as A's in your classes! Kiwanis International is offering their KEY LEADER program to help you build and improve these valuable skills! Check it out at www.key-leader.org today!
� Make a 4-year plan for high school. Figure out what classes you'll need to take during each year you're here. See your school counselor for help. (Check out required courses for high school and the courses you'll need to get accepted into a college...NOT the same things!)
� Think you know about college? Make sure you're not falling for any of these 10 college myths!
� Start (or continue) doing your homework every night--you should be averaging 1-1 1/2 hours/night.
� Learn how to study better! Be determined to get A's and B's no matter what! College's don't care about anything less.
� If you get behind or are just not getting it, get some help IMMEDIATELY! The longer you wait to see your teacher, the deeper the hole gets. This is the biggest reason kids fail classes -- they wait too long and give up.
� Try out for a sport, join a club, get on student council, DO SOMETHING because you'll need more than good grades to get into college.
� Get to know your school counselor. Stop in and make sure you have a good schedule, ask'em for help with anything, tell them your good news or bad.
