High school is pretty different but not too different at Job Corps, high school has younger kids and they don’t really have trades but they anything other than that its almost the same, at Job Corps you have to leave her at a regular school you don’t and there’s a lot more to it than that but that’s the main differences. I think the students at Woodland need work on behavior and how they treat people. The complete meaning of respect, I feel needs to be learn to respect other people’s things, the student must learn how to be more honest and considerate of other people’s materials. I try to stay to myself and away from everyone so I can succeed and really try to improve my life so I can accomplish all of my goals. There are staff members which are qualified here at Woodland. And there are staff who want to see you succeed. What I think could be an improvement is when we make a good or bad decision assist us more in how to evaluate what we did and then where we can make improvements. None the less the center provided mostly good because of all of the information you can have to help you in life. I have stayed at Woodland because I am accomplishing every single goal I set for myself. My trade will be completed in November and there is much hope and anticipation to complete Job Corps sometime in
