@Ajoseph5 turning off youtube is hard i recommend shuting off all devices.

jroach5 said...

@BLyncker
That is a pretty good plan.

aberryman5 said...

One of my goals are to get good grades in all my classes. I also, want to be the best trumpet player in the section at Fort Clarke. My dream job would be an apple electronics engineer, a navy engineer, or a navy pilot. Materials I need for class is a computer and the library. The last thing I want to do is attend all 8th grade events.

AJoseph5 said...

rparent5
A good tip is to turn off all your electronics so you wont get distracted.

DSanchez said...

jroach5
Hope you can complete your goal on reading 100 books

Nvance5 said...

My goal for this year is to make straight A's and B's for the entire year. I would also like to do my best in math because I have had trouble with math in the past and I would like to get much better at it and learn more about it. Another thing I would like to get ready for High school and beyond. The thing I most look forward to this year are the fun things that I will do with my Friends this year and the memories we will share. That is what I most look forward to this year

cchesser5 said...

@DSanchez
Don't just settle for B's or C's always go for the A

rparent5 said...

@jroach5 i hope you can achieve your book reading goal.

nlabender5 said...

One of my goals this year is to pass my Spanish one class this year for high school credit. As well as pass with all A’s this year. I will achieve this goal by studying and practicing my Spanish words dates and numbers. I will need to study for test and do all my homework for all my classes to achieve my other goal of all A's. Some resources I need to achieve this goal are index cards to study, confidence, and a good attitude.

tmodican5 said...

Some of the goals that I would like to achieve this year would be making straight A’s, no referrals, and most importantly going to high school. One of the things I would have to do is listen in class by doing that I could swallow all of this information and be able to spit it back out at any given time. Just for me to achieve that I would have to study by making flash cards and any other methods that would help me. The other thing I would have to do is control my temper and behavior so that I won’t get any referrals yes this is going to be hard but I believe that I could maintain this. The very last thing I would have to do is do all turn it in on time so that no points get knocked off and check my work every time to make sure that it is perfection and nothing less.

mmeachum5 said...

Hope you accomplish your goal.

daproctor5 said...

This is my first year here at Forte Clark. I don't know anyone so i will try to do my best to make good grades in class. They assign allot of homework and i cant keep up. So some of my homework assignments will be kinda late but I will try to do my best to turn it in on time.

gazam5 said...

My goals this year is going to be AWESOME!!! First I’m going to attain all A’s. I’m going to be motivated this year and focused. Converse with people and don’t let others negative behavior effect on me. I’m going to pass this year, so I can move on to high school. So far I’m loving 8th Grade and can’t wait until summer.

cchesser5 said...

@nlabender5
That's a great goal just keep trying and you'll succeed

nlewis5 said...


My goal as a student this school year is to obtain straight As. The reason for that is mostly money from my parents and stuff like that. Plus after this year it’s off to high school. In high everything is permanent so I need good grades this year for honors classes next year. I also want to join Fort Clarke Basketball team. There’s not going to be much to do this year so why not join the team or try to. Those are my goals.

BLyncker5 said...

@AJoseph5

Great goals. I wish I could do that but youtube is life.

jroach5 said...

DSanchez

Nice teachers can give you support and so can parents.

Nvance5 said...

@aberryman5 Those are good goals and you should work hard for them

tmodican5 said...

@nlabender5 Great goals and I believe in you and you most definitely can do whatever you put your mind to.

aberryman5 said...

jroach5 Ihope you read more than a 100 books this year.


Jwinfrey5 said...

My goal for this year is to get good grades and to learn what I need to for high school. I've never gotten a referral also and would like to continue my streak. I'd also want to hang out with friends and meet new people. One of the most important things I want to work on is going for grade 4-5 In percussion for high school so I'm ready for either marching or jazz band in high school.Really, overall I just want to be a good student and get middle school done and move on to high school.

Chon5 said...

My goals for this year are to make the A honor roll. Another is I want to keep perfect attendance. To achieve all A’s I will have to study for tests, complete homework on time and correctly. To keep perfect attendance I will have to try not to get sick or stay home from school for any reason. Finally all the resources I will need are just supplies I have already.

charpe5 said...

@jbruce2 I agree with you because I would like to work hard to get an A on my exams and do well with my sports.

jhardy5 said...

This year I would like to be able to dunk 9 feet and have a 4.0 GPA. I will work out, exercise, and stay in fit so that I could build enough muscle to dunk 9 feet. I believe I can do it because in 6th grade I did it to dunk 8.5 feet. Do build a 4.0 GPA I will stay on top of assignments and study really hard before test. I believe I can do that because in 7th grade I reached a 3.8.

DSanchez said...

@Joseph5
Try turning off everything electronic because YouTube is easy to watch

BLyncker5 said...

@gazam5

Sounds cool so I hope you are able to be the ultimate awesomeness..

daproctor5 said...

To add on to my 5 sentences this school is very complex they expect allot of these students to do the right thing make good grades and get out of school go to college and get a job.

TWilliams5 said...

Some of my goals this year is to have less referrals, not have a bad attitude towards teachers at this school. I’m going to put forth effort to work on my behavior, and also not talk back to teachers. Things that I need to help me achieve my goals is, a special person to keep m on track, like a counselor. Also with me having a counselor it will let me express my feelings instead of taking it out on other people.

Ajoseph5 said...

It's my first year too. You will make friends soon. daproctor5

nlabender5 said...

DSanchez. I hope you achieve your goal of all A's' and good luck.

ZGano5 said...

My goal for this year is to not be in situations where I want to hit people in the face. I want to focus on school and aim to ask more questions. I want to get over my fears and get this year over with so I can move on and make the best with what comes next. I’m ready to run (Directioner all the way!) This is going to be a good year for me.

sclark said...

My goals for this year are to get all A’s and do well on exams. To achieve my goals I need to do all my work and extra credit, study for exams and try my best on tests. To accomplish this I need to stay on top of my work and study a few days before a test. Another goal I have is to stay organized all year. This will help me to be able to find things quickly and be ready to get things done. Those are my goals for the year.

gazam5 said...

GKloeppel I hope you have a great year.

GKloeppel5 said...

gazam5
That are good goals and don't let negativity effect you and don't get caught conversing and attain all A's

Chon5 said...

@Nvance5 Good luck with those goals, I hope you achieve them.

esmith5 said...

My major goals for this school year are pretty simple. I have been wanting to get accepted for the Cambridge program at Gainesville High School for quite a while. Last year my GPA wasn’t the best but I’m really trying to work hard this year to make up for all setbacks in previous years. In order to do that I have to maintain and earn all A’s and stay out of trouble to the best of my ability; which shouldn’t be hard. I’m going to have to work strategically, concentrate, and put a lot of effort into school this year in order to accomplish what I am aiming for.

tmodican5 said...

@daproctor5 If you need any help I can help but I believe you can do it just keep trying and I hope you have a nice year :)

cchesser5 said...

@Ajoseph5

jhardy5 said...

Nvance5 said...

@Jwinfrey5 Those good goals and if you try hard enough you will succeed

nlabender said...

Anonymous TWilliams5 Well said about expressing your feelings and not letting them out on other people.

Jwinfrey said...

@Nvance5 Those sounds like good goals to get through school and move on to be an adult.

aberryman5 said...

jhardy5 said...

@twilliams5
all u have 2 do is be quiet and sit down somewhere

abpugh5 said...

Some of my goals this year is to stay out of drama and to make all A’s. To stay out of drama I will not hang out with the wrong crowd. And to get all A’s I will stay off my phone until I get done with my homework. The things that could help me with staying out of drama is hanging around the right crowd that don’t be with that drama. The other thing that could help me get all A’s is to study for all the tests and etc.

GKloeppel5 said...

ZGano5
you have good goals and have a great year and try not to hit people in the face

nlewis5 said...

Chon5

abpugh said...

All you have to do is keep your mouth closed @tbwilliams

Jwinfrey5 said...

@Chon5 Sounds like great goals for your future.

sclark said...

esmith5 you work hard so you should achieve our goals

tlewis5 said...

Some of my goals for this school year are, to get good grades on all of my tests, pass this grade, and accomplish all tasks that should be accomplished. To achieve these goals, I will work hard and study harder so that my grades will improve and stay where they should be. I will also try my hardest to make it to school every day so that I won’t miss anything important, like school work or announcements. The resources that I will need to accomplish my goals are, support from my family and friends, and organized planner and back pack. I will also need to stay on track, so that I won’t mess up and forget something important that could hurt my grades badly enough for me not to pass.

ZGano5 said...

@esmith5 good luck with Cambridge wifey!!!

tlewis5 said...

abpugh5 you can do it, you can do anything you put you mind to.

shughes6 said...

cbruck6 said...

One of my goals this year is to get straight A's. I shall achieve this goal by studying hard. I will also be using the infinite resource called TEACHERS!!! I will need their help most of the year if I want to achieve this goal. Also, I will need the support of my closest friends and my family.

blugenbeel6 said...

My goal is to get good grades while entertaining myself. I will pay attention in class and entertain myself with magnets and rubber bands and strings. I need rubber bands magnets and rainbow string. Also I will need supplies for school. Another goal would be to become mostly fluent in three languages.

cbruck6 said...

jroach5
I wish you luck with the 100 book goal, and support anyone who wants to read a lot.

arodriguez6 said...

My goal this year is to get good grades. I want to keep my grades as an "A" for all of my classes. I also need to study more. To do this i need to go home and study. I also need to watch tutorial videos to help me on things that i need help me on.

sscott6 said...

my goal this year is to do better in school. not get in as much trouble as last year. not be rude to other students and teachers. not a be bully. try out for the basketball team and stay on it for the whole season.

shughes6 said...

tlewis5
i have the same goal of getting good grades.

WDyke6 said...

My goals for the year are to get good grades and keep them throughout the year. I am not going to slack off and I plan to have all of my projects and homework on time or early. I’m not going to procrastinate (Or at least try not to) or not do some of my work. I try to be a good student, and make good grades. One of the resources I can use are my brain. If I have the right mindset, I can achieve anything.

SHernandez6 said...

My goals this school year are to keep up on my schoolwork and focus better in class. Last year I didn't do well and fell behind in my classes, so I would like to improve myself and my grades. I'm going to start asking my teachers for help with assignments instead of being shy and keeping quiet. I will also start studying for tests and quizzes by making study guides and reviews. I plan to not get any D's or F's on my report cards, and use online textbooks.

i also have the same goal of doing better in school.

mwaters6 said...

Some of my goals for this year is to achieve an all A’s or all A’s and B’s this year. I’m going to achieve this goal by doing as much extra credit as possible and do as much work as I can without my brain melting. I need as much motivation or help as I can get and if another student helps me then I’ll help them back. I want to achieve this so I can move on into the world, I want to be respected as another human being not someone who makes the wrong decision and others calling me names or worse. I hope everyone has a great year and has a goal and I believe that you will do. You can make it.

tfolston6 said...

My goals this school year are to get good grades and be more interactive in school. For examples, join clubs, join student council, etc. In order to reach these goals, I need to study for all of my classes, take notes, and join the clubs I’m interested in. To do this I’ll need, textbooks, notebooks, and a focused mind. To join a club I’ll need to possess the skills for that activity.

blugenbeel6 said...

Nvance5
Good goals and for math you just need to pay attention and if you still don't get it ask the teacher for help after class.

TBrown6 said...

My goals for this school year is to get straight A’s. I want straight A’s because I want to get in the finance program at Buchholtz. I want to play football and basketball for varsity. I am going to try to get all S’s to. That’s what I’m looking for this year.

cbruck6 said...

blugenbeel6
Good luck with three languages! (WOW, aiming high in life!)

mdinh6 said...

My goals for this school year is to get straight A’s and try to do more than what’s needed so I can learn more and pass 8th grade. Other than getting straight A’s and focusing on the typical, I also want to keep a positive attitude. A positive attitude is important, especially in school. This is because the more positive you are, the more encouraged you are to want to work. Lastly, my goal is to pass 8th grade with a good score on the FCAT.

arodriguez6 said...

sscott
That is an excellent goal sir.

jiademarco6 said...

One of my goals for this year is to do all of my homework. Last year I didn't do all of it, and that brought my grade down a good amount. I hope that by doing all of my homework I can get all A's and B's. And to help me achieve this goal I will right in my planner more because it will help me keep track. Also to do all of my projects this year. :D

chodges6 said...

Some of my main goals for this school year include getting above average grades and being able to keep up with schoolwork without procrastinating. It would also be nice to accomplish these goals without getting too stressed out. In order to achieve these goals, I would need to be attentive in all of my classes and stay on top of homework. It is also imperative that I keep a positive outlook on school and school work.

lthigpin6 said...

One of my goals this year is to get better grades then I did last year, and stay out of trouble. In order for me to achieve these goals, I am working harder than I ever have before and trying to stay on my best behavior. I am doing my class work. So far, I’ve turned in my homework assignments on time, and every project I’ve been assigned on time. Some resources that I may need to help me achieve my goals are someone to stay on me. Make sure I’m doing what I’m supposed to do, and make sure it stays that way.

zstevenson6 said...

My goal this year is to pass the 8th grade so I can play for Buchholtz and be great football player.Im going to do it by doing all my classwork and homework. And im going to try to make a 3.0 or better. The resources that I need is focus & confidence. I want to make my mom proud because I know she want me to do something with my life.

WDyke6 said...

@WDyke6 Those are some great goals, I hope you Acheive them

sscott6 said...

very cool good goals to have

sscott6 said...

cool goals to have.

mdinh6 said...

cbruck6 using your close friends and family is a great resource!

mwaters6 said...

shughes6
I have the same goals as you do.

blugenbeel6 said...

tfolston6
Good goals and yes talk more it will get you through the year faster.

arodriguez6 said...

mdinh6
Positive attitude is the way to go!

jrobinson6 said...

One of my goals this school year is to turn in all my homework assignments. I will have them in my binders and written in my planner so I know when they are due and when I should do them. Another goal I have is to get straight A’s. I will achieve this goal by studying for all my tests and quizzes and putting the most amount of effort on projects. I have apps on my computer and phone to help me be the best student I can be. :D

tfolston6 said...

@blugenbeel6 Your goals for this school year seem achievable, I hope you can achieve them.

mdinh6 said...

sscott6 good luck on the basketball team

SNolen6 said...

One goal I have for this year is to maintain straight A’s. I also don’t want turn in any late work. To achieve that goal I will turn in all of my school work and not procrastinate because when I procrastinate I get really stressed the night before and don’t do as well as I could. One resource can use is the internet. If I have to research a topic and I need more information I can always look up trust-able websites to find the information.

GMaran6 said...

Some of my goals for this year are to obviously pass, but I’d like to at least have a 90 every quarter for this class. Another goal I’d like to achieve would be to not have a bad time. To achieve these goals I may need to study if “I’m a bit wobbly walking down the road” then that would be able to boost my grades on upcoming assignments, tests, and other things, but some resources I might need would be the great and all-powerful internet along with notes I may have took with a dash of books. But more importantly, I need myself and my own joy. When you work way too much without relaxing or taking a break by doing something, what you do will not be as good as say, if I was happy thus I will need to play games with my friends while talking to them (via Skype) but I will balance school and games equally!

shoulihan6 said...

Some of my goals this class year are to be a nice class mate to others. And to get good grades. And also to be a good student. And get lots of bucks. To be a helping hand to other students.

zstevenson6 said...

@TBrown6 good luck

TBrown6 said...

@zstevenson6 good job

cwright6 said...

My goal for this school year is to get better grades. To achieve these goals I am going to work harder in class and on my homework. I will pay more attention in class too. The resources I need to achieve my goals are getting rewards from my parents. Like getting pizza for dinner.

SHernandez6 said...

@cbruck6 I also want to get straight A's this year

mwaters6 said...

mdinh6
i have the same goals as you however you are going farther ahead i hope you'll make your goal.

ABennett6 said...

One of my goals this year is to stay focus on my school work and homework because this year is the year you really wanna buckle down, it gets you ready for highschool. If you keep slacking it'll become a habbit, if it becomes a habbit you could rish failing a grade or even getting a bad name from the teachers from your old school. Also this year I will worry about myself and not worry about friends and getting into other peoples bussiness. Most of all I will study on everything because test are a big part of your grade, this is also what gets you ready for the highschool. This is one goal I will definitly achieve!

shoulihan6 said...

GMaran6 Nice post I hope you achieve them.

jrobinson6 said...

jiademarco6

zstevenson6 said...

@SHernandez6 study hard and get your grades right

WDyke6 said...

SNolen6 said...

chodges6
I hope that you can achieve your goal of not procrastinating, I also have the same goal.

lperkins6 said...

My goal for this year is to do better in my classes and get better grades. To achieve this I’m going to try harder. Also to do more work. The resources I need is rewards. Like food for good grades.

lthigpin6 said...

ABennett6.. I agree, those are great goals.

chodges6 said...

jrobinson6 said...

sscott

GMaran6 said...

@ABennett6 Dreams are just dreams but goals are the same, yet if you work and act towards it, your dreams will become a reality.

agood6 said...

My goals for this school year are simple. To get all A’s & B’s and to pass 8th grade. To achieve these goals I’m going to have to turn in all my work, study for test, and ask questions. The resources I need to help reach my goal is support from my family and closes friends. I hope I have a good year.

jiademarco7 said...

jrobinson6 those are some great goals

WDyke6 said...

WDyke6

GMaran6 said...

agood6 said...

chodges6 hope you get better grades to reach your goal

Jmedwards2 said...

Jmedwards2 said...

hkim1 said...

@jroach5 Wow 100 books would b awsome!

AKlock1 said...

My goals for this school year are to get A's in Reading in Language Arts. I want to get the best grades all year that I can. I am trying my hardest in all of my classes to achieve this goal. For resources, I am using my computer and reading at home. I am also trying my best on all of my homework and trying to get my school work done at school

AKlock1 said...

agood6- that sounds great! If you study hard and do your best on test, you should get good grades.

AKlock1 said...

lperkins6- Food for good grades might not be the best idea. But some sort or reward from your parents isn't a bad idea.

AKlock1 said...

clmitchell1 said...

@STakor1 That is an amazing goal, it's something I'm always trying to achieve. I really hope you accomplish your goal!

Kcox6 said...

This year one of my goals are to maintain an "A" average as well as not turn in any late work for this class. To achieve these goals I must study for my test, participate, and well do my work on time. One of the resources I will need to achieve these goals is time. I will need time so I can put effort and organization into my homework/projects. I will also need to be focused in and out of school to learn and study the things I need to know.

Kcox6 said...

I think that's great goals and I hope you make the baseball team.

Kcox6 said...

Great idea to use apps for vocabulary and math.

zpgano said...

@apatterson1 you got this girl!!

sbell1 said...

@apatterson1 I just know that you will make lots of new friends and get straight A's but good luck anyways!

sbell1 said...

@jsmith1 great idea using apps. I believe that you can do this!

kherring2 said...

kherring2
The book I am currently reading is Hurt Go Happy. I am on page 113.The author is Ginny Rorby. The genre of the book is biography. I know this because it’s about a girl that is telling us about her life and how she is deaf and how she has a chimpanzee to teach her sign language. Yes I am enjoying the book and I hope they have more of these books in a series.

fdexter1 said...

Some of my goals this year are hopefully passing 8th grade and having straight A’s knowing I know that’s not going to happen. Therefore I know I’m smart but though out life I want to go to college and during 8th grade I want no referral this year. Also get an award for some positive in 8th grade. The resources I will need for this is not to worry about others just myself and to stay on task and be a leader. And start doing homework when due. To not have them referrals I need to follow the school directions.
