The Importance of Hard Work in High School

There are kids that make choices in high school to take the harder classes. When I finally decided later in my high school years to actually put my nose to the grindstone and pay attention, gee, lo and behold, I ended up on the honors list. You know, go to Delphi University and I became a Dean's List student. If you actually open a book and read and study and hand in your assignments, your grades get better. But there are kids that work hard and they get not only a 4.0 grade point average, you can get a 4.2 or a 4.3 or a4.4 GPA.
