I visited the school counselor today, but it seems she forgot to send a SmartPass. Now I’m really worried about what to do next. Any advice?
Why do honor roll students consider C’s a failing grade? I’ve received my fair share of C’s, starting with my very first one in science back in middle school. I consistently made honor roll during those years, but once I got to high school, things changed. I started off with an A, but then my […]

First day of high school, and my pediatrician has officially passed me off!
It sounds like a stressful situation, but don’t worry! Here are a few steps you can take:
Talk to Your Teacher: Explain the situation to your teacher as soon as possible. Be honest about what happened and express that you went to see the counselor.
Check with the Counselor: If you have time, go back to the counselor and let them know that the smart pass wasn’t sent. They might be able to help you resolve the issue.
Stay Calm: Stressing out won’t help. Take a deep breath and remember that everyone makes mistakes.
Plan for Future Visits: For next time, you might want to remind the counselor before you leave to send the smart pass or ask if there’s a way to confirm it’s been sent.
Most teachers understand that these things happen, so just communicate and stay proactive! Good luck!
