Stressed About the End Of The Quarter?

By Allure Sapp, Repoter

Approaching the end of second quarter, some students may have a lot of work to do.

Here are some ways to keep calm  and not stress about your grades and school:

1.The first way that you can be stress-free  is to use time management skills. This is really important because you will be able to focus more on your work and you maybe will get your work in and finish it early. You also might have time to get extra help on something that you don’t understand.

2. If homework is something that you are having trouble with, like turning it in or just not doing it at all, using a planner might be a lifesaver. Using a planner on your phone is very helpful because your planner can be set up to remind you when you have to turn in your work. 

3. If you are a student that has a job and when you get home you just don’t have the time for homework, it is always a good idea to take your homework to work and work on it during your break. You can always finish in homeroom or lunch.

4. Another idea that might help is to encourage yourself and push yourself because when you push yourself you can see yourself improve over time.

5. Lastly, make sure that you are getting sleep because it is a proven fact that if you get more rest, you will be more focused, and when you’re focused, you are motivated to get your work done.

Freshman Khyretha Jackson is a student that has solid looking grades, but when she sees that she has a failing grade, she goes straight to her teacher to see what she can do to get her grade back up.

“I get really nervous for some reason, and… I don’t like having bad grades, so I get to a teacher as soon as I can, but if they say I can’t fix it I am okay with that because I know it is just one grade and I have to get my grades the way they need to be,” said Jackson.

Do what you have to to get your work in on time so that you have nothing to worry about.
