Junior, Lakehill Preparatory
I had been at Lakehill all the way from kindergarten through eighth grade. I had amazing friends and I liked my school a lot, but I wanted to go to a bigger high school to change things up. I never left Lakehill because I was unhappy there; I merely left to get a new experience. This experience did not turn out the way I expected it to turn out. I found myself searching for a good group of friends like the ones I had at Lakehill, but they were never the same.
I am so glad to be back at Lakehill. Leaving made me appreciate all the things I have so much more. Things like having small classes, having close relationships with my teachers, and the feeling of freedom to speak my mind. I learned a valuable lesson from all of this; do not try to fix something that isn’t broken. I am not saying you shouldn’t ever change things up and expand your horizons because we would never get anywhere like that, but if things are going well for you-don’t change them.
