Gateway Essay
I am ready for the 11th grade because I feel that I have the potential to move on maybe I know I have in me. My teachers might not seen my potential because in this school I can’t show my potential because the work here is different to other schools. Like the grading in this school is like at a college level well that’s what I feel I’m not trying to say that I’m not able to work at that level cause I am able its just that I want to take things slow that not fast like lets leave college work for when college comes not now. The personal and academic qualities I possess to continue success as student at Animo FTA, are well a little bit because in this school honestly I see myself flunking because its that I’m not saying I cant do the work but like I said before I’d like to take it slower like I understand that this school would like to prepares us better for the future and college but just not ready to take the big step. I am I missing credits? I’m pretty sure because once I got to this school it basically fucked up my credits be cause I didn’t have most of the course I was taking in my old wonderful school. I’m missing my credits from, well right now currently I’m failing World History, Geometry, LTI, and World Religion I’m pretty sure that’s a lot of credits. The way I plan to make up this credits is any kind of way possible as long as I don’t flunk the 10th grade because I would feel so devastated and plus I have never flunked a grade in my life so I don’t want to start now.

I not going to lie I’m a disruptive student but half of the time im paying attention and doing my work well
