Are You Ready for the Second Semester: Keys to Success!

Now that the holidays are over, it's time to really focus on doing well in school! Here are several tips that might help you reach success!

1)  Use a calendar to note short-term and long-term assignments. Provide enough time to complete your assignments!

2)  Review your study methods. How do you learn best? Gather all necessary materials, designate a study space, review and reread all pertinent materials, and determine what areas require your attention. Do you rewrite your notes? Do you generate a study outline? Do you provide ample time to master your subject area?

3)  Set goals for success! You can set goals on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. What do you want to accomplish and how can you specify exactly what goals you want to reach?

4)  Make the time to attend extra-help. Your teachers are available to help you! Set an appointment!

5)  Have you thought of forming a study group? Many students benefit from collaborative reading and analysis.

Second semester success depends on YOU!
