I graduated from high school ten years ago in 2000, and this fall our class will be celebrating our ten year reunion. I really don't feel like going since I have no desire to relive high school which wasn't a complete nightmare but is far from "the best years of my life."
Out of curiosity, I did Google my old high school, Westside High School to see what it's like now. I learned about the following things:
- Our school actually has a website now! Back when I was still in high school, email was a pretty new thing.
- Our sports teams now include horseshoes, volleyball and disc golf, none of which were available when I graduate.
- Some of the teachers I loved are still there! So are some of the ones who made my life miserable...
- We now have a home football field! (OHMYGOSH!)
- According to its 2009 School Profile, Westside is not meeting Adequate Yearly Progress Indicators. I'm disappointed.
If I had to list all the things I've learned between high school and now, I could make a third blog....but really, two is enough. Sometimes I wish that the current me could write a letter to high school me, but then I realize that I wouldn't be where I am now had it not been for those scars I endured during those four years. I guess that's the way it's supposed to be.
