Students, staff reflect on first six weeks


By Abi Martinez


These first six weeks of the school year have passed. Students impressed their teachers with their grades and knowledge. This was their first impression on their teachers and a way to show how responsible they are.


I asked some of the students how their first grading period went. Here’s what they answered: Student questions -

Q: How were your first six weeks?

AJ’s answer: My first six weeks were good. I think I got pretty good grades.

Q:Do you think your grades were fair?

Darlei’s answer: Yes, I think they were fair because I got mostly As.

Q:How are you going to help your grades improve or stay good?

Jenifer’s answer: I’m going to take notes to help me on my work.

Q: Do you still like your teachers?

Jaime’s answer: Yes, I still like my teachers because they’re nice to me.

Q: Sixth grader, do you still think middle school is easy?

Jose's answer: No, the classes definitely got harder because I got more homework and classwork.


Teacher Questions -

Q: How do you think your students did these first six weeks?

Mrs.Renfros’s answer: Overall, I think my students did good. I only had to assign homework lunch to a couple of kids. The only thing they need to work on is turning their work in on time.

Q: How are you going to help your students keep their good grades or improve their grades?Mr.Sullivan's answer: I'm going to give them the opportunity to come in after school and finish their work.


According to my interviews, the students first six weeks went good. Except for some rough patches here and there, students were successful, but the students stuck to their work and got through it. Teachers are proud of their students effort, and offer to help them in their school work. Students keep up the good work so the rest of the school year can be good. If you need extra help in classes, speak with your counselor about getting a study buddy. They can assist you in achieving success.
