So, you're only in the 9th grade...but it's NEVER too early to start thinking about what will happen in your life after high school!  Actually, if you haven't though at all about whether or not high school "matters," you're already behind the 8-ball. Beginning with the first semester of your 9th grade year, EVERYTHING matters: Your grades, the classes you take, the volunteer activities you participate in, the sports and clubs you're affiliated with...the all make a difference in the "cumulative you" that will be applying for scholarships, colleges, training programs, and jobs in a few short years. To get an idea of what you SHOULD be doing right now to prepare for the future, check out the "Action Plan for Freshmen" at the Scholarships.com website!
