My Claremont Experience

by Mimi

My years at Claremont middle have been very unusual. I've meet a lot of nice people who became close friends, like Monica Torres, Maalik Evans, Briana Alcorn, Kabrina Woods, etc... My grades have not been so nice. I’ve had bad grades for my whole middle school years and I’m going to try to turn that around. Like I said, it has been very unusual, but a fun experience because the teachers care about my future and I really appreciate that.

I hope I walk the stage because I want my family to be proud of my success. I really want them to be proud because they never gave up on me, when they saw I was failing in school. I especially love family & friends because they have been there for me through ups and downs. I will never forget my experience at that school. I am not sure what school I’m going to next year, but I am hoping I go to a school where I know people so I won’t feel alone. But it really doesn't matter because I’m a very nice person, and I’m very easy to get along with. I hope there are cool teachers like there are at Claremont. My Mom & Sister want to send me to military school, but I don’t want to, because I dress very pretty and they wear uniforms.

I’ve learned that I can’t always do things at the last minute and expect to get rewarded if I don't do what I have to do! I am becoming more responsible, smarter, wiser, and happier because of Claremont. I really don't want the year to be over but it has to end. I’m even going to miss the progress reports, homework, and classwork. I have learned I can’t expect anyone to do everything for me, I got to do it for myself.
