Vanguard's Classified School Survival Guide
Hello, and welcome new Vipers! I hope you are enjoying your first year at Vanguard so far. Going to a new school can be tough, especially with a new environment and new classmates. Here are some school survival tips I've written to help you make it through your first school year:
1. Ask your teachers for help! Don't be shy-that's what they're here for!
2. Get close with your team! Your team members will always be there to support you, and help you with whatever you need. This also includes your team leader!
3. Don't slack off! If you do, you'll get behind, and it's hard to catch up after you've missed a couple of days. Don't risk your chances for graduating on time!
4. Try as many activities as you can! This will not only help you decide what you're interested in, but also help you meet new Vipers!
5. Pay Attention! Try not to fall asleep or zone out during your classes-you could be missing out on valuable information!
6. Read, read, read! Even if you aren't a reader, Vanguard emphasizes on reading A LOT, so it's good to have practice. Reading makes you smarter!
7. Bring your own (healthy) lunch! (Unless you actually like to school's food)
P.S. Heldmann in room 2 has a refrigerator you can store your food in.
8. Have a positive attitude! If you come to school saying "This sucks." then it definitely will. Try to keep a smile on your face, it could help brighten someone else's day too!
9. Pack your own shoes, and a jacket! In Gym you are required to wear gym shoes, so if you usually wear heels or flip flops, just throw a pair of Nike's in your locker. Also, some of your classes might be cold, so always keep a jacket in your locker as well.
That's all I have for now. More coming soon!
