LHS EXPERT.
If I could become an LHS expert in anything I would become an expert in the individual growth of students at LHS beginning from their freshmen year to their senior. I would want to do this because I find students at LHS (myself included) very weird. For example, some people the same age that have encountered similar situations mature over differences in time. Some do mature, others continue to act as though they are in middle school still. Throughout my 4 years of high school, I know seniors that are ready to go into the real world and seniors that still act as though it's their freshmen year in high school and i just do not understand WHY?! Every year when a new freshmen class comes in and I'd be talking to teachers and they'd say "You guys were like that once," I just DO NOT believe it. I know as a freshmen my class was immature, but I don't remember us acting like we didn't have any type of home training. Of course there were exceptions, but majority of the class in my opinion didn't act like wild animals. I wonder if it's that the freshmen get more and more immature and child-like looking or if it's that I'm getting more mature? I've talked to some people in school about this and they have agreed with me also so to test it out I would want to observe certain individuals from different types of social groups and watch them for four years to see how each one changes. I think I would my results would be fascinating!
