Ways to make school easier

Chloe Koons, Staff Writer

As we all know, school can be difficult. This can be from too much work, social status, and the way of American Academics. America’s academics revolve around standardized testing, which can put a lot of pressure on students to do well on them. Many students receive good grades based on memorizing things for the test, rather than actually learning and remembering them, which can feel pointless. Students may begin to stop caring and get bored because of this.

So, if you want to make school easier, you’ll have to keep a positive attitude. Some ways to also feel less stressed is to keep organized. If you are not organized you may feel overwhelmed and not get things done. Also, find the way of studying that works best for you, and try to find more enjoyable ways to remember things. Also, make sure to have a schedule so you know when to get things done and how to manage your time rather than worrying about what you have to do all day. Make sure to be on time to class so that you can get all of the information you need, saving you some time. If you’re going to show up to school, you might as well show up to class.

Some things that can make school worth your time also include going to events such as football games and dances. You can also join clubs, but the main point is to get involved. This will make high school memorable, instead of just remembering it for all the work and stress you had during that time. Good communication with people can make school easier as well, and you can have them to make these memories with. You can get to know people and talk to them rather than just feeling bored when you’re in a class. It’s always good to have someone you know. It can definitely be helpful if you don’t understand a topic to have someone you know in class explain it to you later on. Lastly, make sure to reward yourself. School can be hard, so reward yourself for all the hard work you’ve done to get where you are.
