What Challenges Do Teens Faceand How Do They Cope?
We all go through the fire. For students, growing into adulthood often bring stresses and pressures from lots of angles...- Problems at home
- Issues with school
- Pressure from friends
- Lack of confidence from within
- Etc.
Hundreds of students shared a personal story in which they faced an obstacle, challenge, issue or problem (big or small) during the school year and shared how they dealt with it when they answered our writing contest prompt...
"I Overcame: What was the most difficult thing you overcame this past school year?"
