My Righetti Story

Righetti is a big school with crowded classrooms, crowded hallways, and a high populous student body. The days I’ve spent in Righetti travelling back and forth across the campus like an endless merry-go-round. I thought I was riding a carousel with no purpose. I soon realized that the rigorous core classes I was taking that required my time to walk, also took my time to learn. I don’t regret taking AP/Honors classes, I’m glad that they were challenging classes, which changed how I really think.

Freshman year, I thought the rest of my four years were only going to be focused around academics. Boy was I wrong. The clubs I joined, the community service I provided, collaborations, track & field, college trips, Wake-A-Thon events, teacher talks, and increasing friendships were the most important attributes of my high school years. Sophomore Year, I took the hardest class on campus (supposedly, I think AP Physics is the hardest class nowadays), AP World History and passed it’s AP exam with a score of 4. I was proud of myself, then convinced myself to take more AP courses that’ll definitely benefit me. Junior Year, realization overcame me. I didn’t learn anything from my classes and so I took the time to work with others to get ahead of the game. All in all, this was an easy year (except physics). Senior Year, growth, unfairness, time constraint, “I wish I can do things over again,” anticipation, and now are still going on.

AVID. College bound students with smarticles is where people get together without falter. Half my story is shared with my AVID classmates. Ironically, we barely do much in the class, but my 4 years with the class share unforgettable memories that may be-could be-might be match to those of future experiences of college memories. It’s important to know where your friends come from and AVID is the place to know so.

Some students may be bad, some good, but Righetti shouldn’t be considered a school of bad hopes and false dreams. The school values students who want to learn and retain information. I could be considered a bad kid who is labeled to be bad from where I come from. Heck I hang around those kids, but they aren’t bad at all. Personally, I’m proud of who I am because honestly, I represent the kids with the same background as me. Righetti offers opportunity, any kinds of opportunity. Just think of one, it’ll be there.
