Qualities of an excellent student

Sadie Haines

 

     There are many things that could make a student successful. Some students get good grades just because they are smart, and some students have to try harder to get good grades. How a student studies and focuses on the learning material are two aspects of a good student. Students who study more often and are more intense with the level of effort they are putting into their work tend to get better grades. 

     A lot of students tend to procrastinate all of their work. This leads to a big problem. If someone procrastinates on everything, they end up rushing to get things done and it will not be the best quality work they can produce. 

     Three students at HAHS,  Kamryn Witman, Maile Bentz and Morgan Lutz, said that they do tend  to procrastinate more than doing their work as soon as they get it. This is something children and adults that are in school deal with on a daily basis. School can cause a lot of stress and getting things done on time can be really hard. One thing that might help students deal with this stress is getting a planner. Students can plan out exactly what day they want to do certain parts of an assignment and it just makes everything much more organized overall. Another thing that might help is to make a to-do list. Making a list of things a person needs to accomplish is a great way to stay on track and make sure everything is completed.
