Dear First Year Students

I hope you are glad to have been accepted at Sandvika High School. This will be, I promise you, three fantastic years. You will learn a lot, meet new and fantastic people. This is the time you will create the friendships that will last. This is the time you will grow up and learn who you really are, and the perfect place to do it, is here.

Nevertheless, there are some things you need to know. As you probably are aware of, this school is the flagship in use of technology. We have personal computers, which of course is extremely practical. Taking notes and collecting all your work at one place makes it easier than having ten different note books.

Since we use computers all the time, it can be hard to focus. There are a lot of temptations out there which seem more fun. But this will actually do you wrong. Participating in class will help you to achieve great grades. This comes from a student who has achieved great grades in the subjects she has participated in, but almost failed in the ones she only had her nose into the screen. Be clever and use the remedies wisely. This is a great advice; just you guys follow it and do your best.
