Summer is getting closer and on every one's mind, especially as the weather warms. Though summer may be all we think about, here are three easy tips for keeping your focus on school.

1.) Enjoy high school experiences. Attend some track meets, softball games, or baseball games. Get involved in clubs, sports, and other volunteer work.

2.) Keep a schedule. Use your assignment notebook to keep track of tests, finals, and (of course) the beginning of summer!

3.) Conquer procrastination. When you truly feel like not doing your homework. Sit down at a desk or counter and just do it. Your weekends will be free and they will feel like little pieces of summer early! (think about that while doing the assignments)
