A Good Place
That Could Improve
Kings Mountain Senior High is a great place to be, but couldnt it be
better? There’s always a need for improvement. If every student did
his best, academic achievement would be phenomenal. Although there
‘are students who care nothing about being involved in high:school, we
could press on to exciting activities and be an example for schools
everywhere with a bit of effort on our part. What is high school
without being involved?
We take advantage of our school in so many ways. Garbage is
thrown on the ground when there are trash cans provided. Teachers
are talked about when what they really need is our cooperation.
Abilities students have are not used at school. The list could go on.
Showing pride for your faculty, principal, and yourself would all add
to the enjoyment of KMSHS. Dedicated teachers are trying to prepare
you for the rest of your life. They can teach you, but, they can not
make you learn. Only you can do that.
Seniority is being abused as well. Underclassmen have arrived at the
point that they do not look up to Seniors as examples. Seniors are sup-
posed to set examples for these people. It seems as if every year this
situation gets worse. What do we as Seniors need to do to improve?
Perhaps Seniors should think about what kind of an example they. are
setting.
If all these steps are provided just think what Kings Mountain
Senior High School would be, Not only for learning but for enjoyment
as well. So press on with a good attitude and determination, and you
will be surprised what they will bring.
