Hi, my name is Christopher. Next year, I will be doing something. I am most looking forward to having more freedom. Something that will be challenging for me is handling commitment. I would give future seniors the following advice: senior year may be too late to make the changes you want to make so start early.
Hi, my name is Logan. Next year, everything is up in the air at the moment. However, the general consensus is that I will be doing some venture capital and take a few college courses. I am excited to start my journey into the "real" world. One of the challenges I may face is that I think the planning process is going to be very hectic and stressful. This summer, I know that I will be going on an international trip. Looking back at my time at Stanbridge, I wish I had taken more initiative in my studying. At this point, I just want to graduate and move on. Advice I would like to give to future seniors: Research colleges and post-secondary options right now. Stop reading this and research them because if you wait, it will cause you significant stress in the future. Where is the Class of 2019 off to next? A heartfelt thank you to our awesome blogging intern, Alix, and the bulletin board curating intern, Allison, for helping gather the information for these last posts of 2018-2019. Stay tuned for more of the Class of 2019, plus more student-written blogs!
Hi, my name is Justin. Next year, I will go to West Valley College. I am looking forward to taking new courses and learning new things. This summer, I am going to go to China and Taiwan. Advice I would like to give to future seniors: Be calm!
Hi, my name is Mia. After I graduate I plan to go to Burlingame University for their adult education program. I'm looking forward to see what my life will be like after I graduate. I think a challenge I will have is that I won’t know the best way to adjust to my new school. This summer, I will be going to Lake Shasta with my family, and friends, and I’ll be going to other lake trips throughout the summer as well. My advice for future seniors: I would say that with everything challenge is by choice, but please try to push yourself to try to do new things on field trips because you will feel good at the end, and you know you have accomplished something. My other advice is to make the best of your experience in your senior year because the last year at Stanbridge feels like the quickest year at Stanbridge. Hi, my name is Patrick. Next year, I will be attending Foothill College. I am looking forward to playing sports. This summer I will be staying at home.

Hi, my name is Chase. After I graduate I will be going to school at Riverview School in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. I am most looking forward to studying. One of the challenges I will have is doing a lot of work. This summer, I’m going to a private island with my dad. Looking back on my years at Stanbridge, I wish I had taken drama all four years. I would give future seniors the following advice: you should always try new things.
Hi, my name is Dylan. In the Fall, I will be attending the Wayfinders Program at Fresno State. I am looking forward to having more freedom. One of the challenges I may face is navigating a big campus. This summer, I am not sure what I am doing. Looking back at my time at Stanbridge, I wish I had been given more homework. Advice I would like to give to future seniors: try new things. Hi, my name is Grace. After graduation, I am planning to work at Jamba Juice and then perhaps attend Foothill College, if I am ready. I am also considering taking a gap year to visit my grandparents, work and earn money. One of the challenges I face is not being repetitive, and working to move on to more important things in life. This summer, I will be visiting my grandparents in Beijing, China, spending time with my sister, and hopefully getting a new phone. Looking back at my time at Stanbridge, I wish I had been nicer to others and more accepting. I would give future seniors the following advice: do good deeds and be yourself. Where is the Class of 2019 off to next? A heartfelt thank you to our awesome blogging intern, Alix, and the bulletin board curating intern, Allison, for helping gather the information for these last posts of 2018-2019.

I would give future seniors the following advice: study hard and get good grades. Hi, my name is Brianna. In the Fall, I will be going to college and looking for a job. I'm looking forward to going to college. One of the challenges I may face is staying up late in classes. This summer I will be writing essays to make money for college. Looking back at my time at Stanbridge, I wish I had been better about trying to get all my work done, even on school nights. Advice I would like to give to future seniors: Think about what to write for essays. Where is the Class of 2019 off to next?

Hi, my name is Adrian. Next year, I will go to an adult program in Daly City. After that, I'm going to go to college. One of the challenges I will face is doing math homework. This summer, I am going to the water park.
Hi, my name is Alix. Next year, I will be taking a Gap Year before heading off to Saint Mary's College of California. During this gap year, I plan to get a part-time job, and take some courses at College of San Mateo and Canada College. Challenges I expect to face include how busy that I could be, and that it could be overwhelming. This summer, I will take French lessons, attend Sewing Camp, volunteer at a horse ranch, and take a trip to Montreal. Advice I would like to give to future seniors: If you plan on taking a Gap Year before heading off to college, speak to each college to find out their Gap Year policies. Some colleges that I applied to consider you a transfer student if you plan to take community college courses, while others expect you to reapply during your Gap Year, or do Community Service during Gap Year. Hi, my name is Allison. After graduation, I will be attending Foothill College in Los Altos Hills. It is a one-year program. I am excited because I live very close to the campus. One of the challenges I will face is I will need to work harder to stay on top of my schoolwork. This summer, I will be taking more art classes and traveling with family. Looking back on my years at Stanbridge, I wish I had participated in more activities in High School.
