Your primary job in high school is to learn. Take all of your classes seriously. Come to class with all of your materials. Study a little bit each day for each of your classes.
Get extra help from your teachers as soon as you are not comprehending. Get involved in extracurricular activities. Plan for the future- think about what you want to do when you get out of high school.
