DO NOT be doin anything y’all shouldn’t be around here, and if you do, don’t get caught. I’ve had my fair share of talks with the guidance counselors and Ms. Pinckney, and trust me they aren’t fun. I hope y’all make it all the way through high school together, cuz there’s nothing like support from someone you’re in a relationship with at a hard school like this. To all the current and future students of Academic Magnet High School I leave the ability to maintain a sense of humor throughout your high school career. Hopefully y’all can keep it under control (I’ve slipped up a couple times ngl). I also leave to these students a piece of advice: relax a bit. School is an important part of life, but that doesn’t mean it has to take over your life. You don’t need to stay up to 3AM to get things done or study if you get them done before, and even if you do procrastinate try not to let it screw up your day to day activities. This is a hard school, and this is coming from a guy with ok grades, but its not impossible and it’s not worth crying over if you’re the type to cry over your grades. Have fun in high school, cuz you’ll never be back here again. ✊🏽
