My Expectations for High School

A lot is expected of you over the course of your four years in high school. You are expected to pass your classes, do your homework, pass the WASL, complete a Culminating Project, and come to school every day prepared to work and get along with other students and teachers. While all of these expectations are placed on you, you probably have some expectations of your own that may or may not align with those mentioned. 

What do you expect to get out of high school? What expectations do you have for the next four years? What do you expect to gain/learn/experience by the time you graduate? Write two full paragraphs in response. Think carefully. Post and comment by Friday, December 5.
