So I had to stop and think about this blog. I have been having trouble because I am a very opinionated person. I guess the thing I dislike about Hi-Point really isn’t about Hi-Point. It is more about the home schools.
Most students here don’t have a reliable source to know what is going on at their school all the time. I just found out Monday when my school’s graduation is. The email system from my school also makes things difficult sometimes. I was to be inducted into the National Honor Society and didn’t find out until that day. This was because even though they all have our emails, the system wanted to send it to a different address.
With going to Hi-Point you can keep in touch, but usually for me it is only by going to my guidance counselor or by reading the announcements they send here to Hi-Point, unless you involved in something or sometimes a friend back at the home school will share information from there, too. This does vary by school, but for me, right now, my dislike would be my home school communication problems.

So far senior year is going great. The emailing system here at Hi-Point has really helped out a lot to keep in touch with my home school.  In fact, the other day I had received an exciting letter and email for my academic banquet.  My 4.0 GPA last year allowed me to receive my academic letter, “K,” that will go on my varsity jacket this year.  Here recently we ordered our graduation stuff, although my home school, Kenton, was one of the schools that didn’t order through Hi- Point.  Thankfully, our guidance counselor was able to email us that we needed to stop and order.  Even though I go to Hi-Point full day, Kenton students were released early last Friday for our pep rally.  That’s something I look forward to every year, and I’m glad that we’re still a part of that.
I work part-time at a pizza shop throughout the week.  It’s usually only four days a week, and my manager tries his best to make three of those days to be Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, so I don’t fall back in any of my classes, which helps extremely.  I appreciate having a job that understands going to school, and work is stressful.  This year has felt a little rushed, I’m balancing everything, but there are days when I feel behind, when I’m actually not.

Hey what’s up my followers?! Many people feel that you’ll lose your social life when you come to Hi-Point. They say you’ll never see your friends from your home school at all. Well, those people are totally wrong! Not only do you see these people, but you make new friends, too.

You have a lot of communication with your home school, too. I go to Bellefontaine (if you read my bio you would know that lol). Anyway, with the use of my handy dandy email I can stay in contact with all my home school activities. Jere Daniels is nice enough to send me the morning announcements from Bellefontaine every day. If that isn’t nice enough, at Hi-Point they will let us go to our home school to have pep rallies. My friends Bobby, Dylan and Clay have football practice everyday, and the school lets them leave a little early if they have an early practice or an activity they need to get to.
