What are good ways of staying organized in high school? #Fall24
This could be advice relating to school, clubs, general organizing and simply management. I want to use my time wisely in class and outside of class so I can have more "me-time" and time with family.

The best way to stay organized is to plan. And not just plan for everything you know you have to do, make sure you set aside time for the unknown too. Set aside time for yourself and family and then make everything else work around that, sometimes certain things may have to get cut short or cut out. Family and personal time is important. Every day in life is different and so your planning will not always be perfect, but I've come to think this is when you can learn and grow the most.
You're absolutely right! Thank you for the advice Isaiah!

Thank you for your question. Firstly, you need to find a time management to help you, eg Google Calendar MS Outlook, phone calendar, etc
Below are my suggestions,:
1. Put down the time you need to attend classes
2. Assign some time every day for your projects, assignment, etc. Review the material covered in class in the day
3. Make sure you have enough time to sleep and do some exercise
4. You cal allocate the time for extra curriculum activities. On the weekend, you can assign some time for your leisure, friends & family gathering
5. You may need assign more time for revision before assessment or weekend
You don't need to fill up your schedule completely. Leave 'me' time for reflection and relax.
Hope this helps! Good luck!
May Almighty God bless you!

Begin to view your tasks within shorter time frames, rather than focusing solely on the large-scale objective of finishing high school.
There's an abundance of excellent, no-cost time management templates available. You can use these to strategically plan your study and school work schedule, but it will require immediate self-discipline to set it up.
For instance, let's say I have a project due in 10 days that requires 2 hours of work each day to complete on time. I set reminders on my phone to prompt me to pause whatever I'm doing and dedicate those 2 hours to the project, ensuring not to exceed the 2-hour limit. This method might seem monotonous, but it's proven to be incredibly effective in managing my time, study periods, and personal time.
