I've very nearly graduated from high school. I can't say that it has been easy. I missed two months of school earlier this year so I had to do lots of extra work to catch up, but I made an effort and did this - and in one month's time I'll graduate! Thanks to everyone for all your support.
Hello. I’m in my final year of secondary school and am happy because I’m going to graduate this year. I think education is very important because it helps us get a good job and salary and helps us improve our lives economically. I really think this has been one of the most difficult years for students. We’ve had to adapt to the new way, which amounts to self-education, and which isn’t as demanding as face-to-face lessons. Thank you for your support.
