4 Things I Want To Thank My High School Teachers For

As I make my way into college this month, i have been thinking a lot about high school and how lucky i was when it came to my teachers. As i talk to others from different schools i hear about the teachers and how mean some may be. During my four years, i never complained about my teachers because there was no reason to. High school was a great experience for me, and my teachers played a huge part in that. I have been in classrooms where the teacher is completely disrespected by students, and i dont understand why or the reasoning behind it when most of the teachers go above and beyond for their students.

High school can be some of the best days of your life. Having teachers who have the best personalities make it 10 times better. I've had my fair share of great teachers. Here are four things I'd like to thank them for:

1. Thank you for continuously seeing potential in me.

No matter how many good or bad grades I deserved, you never stopped trying with me. You always saw potential in all your students and always put your 100 percent into everything. Even for the students that did not want to be in school or only went to school to give you attitude, you always tried.

2. Thank you for always putting in time and effort to help me understand the lesson.

At times I can be a very slow learner, but you always made sure that if your students needed help, to simply ask. Even when I asked the same question over and over again, you would never let me leave unless I knew what I was doing. So thank you for having patience. I know I wouldn't be able to do what you do.

3. Thank you for making my long school days less boring.

During the long school days, you always had the students laughing and being social. You made learning fun by including games and group work. Luckily, school wasn't just sitting in a desk all day learning about things nobody cared about but instead, the lessons were introduced in a fun and active way.

4. Thank you for always being a listening ear.

People often see teachers as people who teach your children and send them long pages of homework to do. That's far from the truth. They become your role model and a friend. I personally always felt comfortable going to my teachers for everything, whether it was problems I was having in school or just every day problems I was having.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
