Write an essay about my alma mater growing up with me

Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by, and I have to say goodbye to my alma mater in a blink of an eye. At this moment, I can’t help but think of the past six years when I grew up with my alma mater. I still remember when I was in first grade, I was ignorant and had a strong thirst for knowledge. When I was sent to this elementary school, I didn’t understand anything, let alone what I was going to do here. In my second grade, I began to appreciate the school’s goal of “a high-quality educational paradise.” I began to understand that behind the stern eyes of the teachers was the desire to pass on knowledge to the ages. I thought to myself: Educating people lasts for eternity, and I spontaneously developed a feeling of admiration for the teacher.

In the third grade, the school built a new teaching building. It is tall and straight. The sky bridges connecting the buildings also connect my heart. I thought: I just need to study hard now and wait until I am promoted to... In the senior grade, I can also go into this beautiful teaching building to study...

In the fourth grade, the school carried out the activity of "making reading and knowing etiquette a habit". I learned that "there are poems and books in the belly" This is the principle of "Qi Zi Hua", and I began to learn to use books to educate myself. I finally understood the sentence: "Knowledge makes people progress."

In fifth grade, I started my journey to senior grade. It was still me. My bad habits were taught by the teacher: "Your enemy is carelessness!"

Recalling the past , I am casual in class and often violate classroom disciplines. However, since my intelligence is pretty good, even if I listen to it in passing, I can still get an excellent grade in the exam. But when the certificates were handed out in the final exam, I was always not included, so I was very discouraged. Later, when a teacher criticized me, I seemed to understand that learning was not easy for me, because I still lacked one thing, and that was diligence. In addition to this thing, I also lacked a more important thing - determination. Lack of determination makes me never continue to do things and always give up halfway. For this reason, the teacher talked to me countless times. Every time he said it, I would secretly make up my mind to get rid of this shortcoming, but afterwards I threw it out of my mind. It wasn't until I grew up that I began to realize that I always failed to get awards because I didn't review the lessons taught by the teacher. I am no longer the person I used to be. I am now a monitor. Of course, I was elected by my classmates because of my good academic performance. Since I became the squad leader, I said goodbye to "laziness", because I am the squad leader elected by everyone, and I have to take the lead. If I can't do it well and the classmates learn from me, wouldn't it be terrible? . This is "the train runs fast because of the headband." If the front of the car doesn't move forward, how can the carriages behind it move forward? Later, in sixth grade, and now, we climbed out of the pile of homework panting, and tasted a ray of sunshine after hard work - the results of the entrance examination proved that the teacher's painstaking efforts and work were not in vain. Our school is still the “leader” in the enrollment rate. Until now, I am still the squad leader. Now, let alone the top five, I can easily win the top three. In general, I have gained a lot from studying, the teachers have given me a lot of knowledge, and the school has given me a lot of growth. I should really thank my alma mater. Because it not only gave me knowledge, but also paved a good path for my future. I will continue to follow the path paved by my alma mater.
