[nabs-l] 10 Best Tips for High School Students

[Sarah Jevnikar]

So true. Especially important in post-secondary. Also you have to be willing
to do more for yourself - from laundry (if you're leaving home) to
orientation and mobility to researching where best to get textbooks from.
Though it's not necessarily your job to do this, it guarantees it gets done.
Hope this helps.

The one thing I can think of off the top of my head is learn to advocate for
yourself and by yourself. If students start to do this in high school, when
they get to college it won't be as big of a shock, at least I wouldn't
think. Even if it's starting out small, anything is better than nothing. 

Take care,
