I was raised to beleive that Sussex Tech was the only route for me; Laurel High School was for degenerates and those who do not value their education. Unfortunately, Tech required nothing less than a B average at the time, and I was no shining student in middle school. I had not been raised in an encouraging enviroment, so I felt that my grades- truly- were that best that I could do. The staff at Laurel Senior Highschool helped my realize that I did have potential! I did not become an A student overnight, but I certainly felt pride, when I started engaging the workload. I am so very thankful for that they did for me. This girl, an AP student? No way! 2003-2007
