Theme "My School"
School is a very special place, where you grow up, make friends and receive education, a place where we learn to value moral qualities in people and develop our skills and talents.
I want to say that I was lucky to be a pupil of gymnasia #6 with the extensive English learning. Our gymnasia is just in the very center of our town and consists of two perhaps not very modern but cozy-looking buildings. Entering the main building you come into a large and pleasant hall, which seems to be saying “Welcome” to you. On the ground floor there are a Headmaster's Office, a library, several cloakrooms, classrooms for junior pupils. On the first floor you can find a teacher's room, a canteen, a gym, a computer classroom and so on. We are proud of our assembly hall, where all kinds of performances, concerts and meetings are held. It has comfortable seats and it is nicely decorated. Chemistry, Physics and Biology laboratories are on the second floor. On the walls in the corridors you can see flowers, exhibitions of pupils’ paintings, different kinds of posters and school newspapers.
The range of subjects taught at our gymnasia is rather wide. In addition to obligatory, students can attend different optional classes. It is possible to learn English and American literature, Polish, Spanish and other subjects. I must admit that our gymnasia provides a high level of education. Every year our students show good results at regional and republic Olympiads, scientific conferences. More than 90% enter Universities and Colleges.
Our gymnasia has many interesting traditions. Traditions unite people, help them to be sure of their position in society. That’s why we try to preserve and develop such common and nice traditions as the Day of Knowledge, the meeting of the school-leavers, some holidays as Teacher’s Day, New Year, Victory Day, Christmas, St. Valentine's Day. Our pupils take part in Exchange Programs with Poland, Sweden. It has become a tradition to hold Charity Fair, during which we collect toys, books, money and give them to sick children and orphans.
Of course, there are some problems at school nowadays. It's not a secret that schools experience financial problems. I wish we had more visual and technical aids, more computers, a swimming-pool, a modern canteen. I wish we had less subjects every day. To my mind our school schedule is overloaded. As a result more than 60% of pupils suffer from chronic diseases.
It's common knowledge that much depends on teachers too. Teachers must be devoted to their work, must love children, be friendly and tolerant.
In conclusion I’d like to say that though educational system experiences a lot of problems, it still manages to produce excellent standards of education.

An example of a story about a school

With a lush garden outside, the school building presents a magnificent view. Its grassy lawns and gravel path with flowers along its sides and the Asoka trees growing near the gate add to its beauty. Any outsider may form the idea that it is perhaps a memorial building.
Besides the beautiful building, spacious grounds and flowered beds, there are other things which attract our particular attentions. There is a grand swimming pool where every facility is provided to the students to learn swimming. The school has its own canteen where some eatables - hot tea or coffee and cold drinks - always avail at subsidized rates.
The teachers are well experienced and well versed in their subjects. Our teachers are quite strict. They teach us with great care, check our notebooks, help us when we need but if we are inattentive and don’t work properly, then we are punished.
In our school special attention is paid to behavior, cleanliness, and punctuality. The most well behaved, neat and punctual student is awarded a prize at the Annual Day function.
What I like most about my school, is the discipline that exists there. The headmaster, as well as the teachers, are disciplined and men and women of character. They do not allow any unruly behavior or any undisciplined activities by students.
A lot of emphases is given to character formation, moral education and acquiring good values of life. Although the school ambient is rather strict and timetable based, yet there is a lot of fun and joy in the school. I am proud to be a student of St. Thomas Academy. I feel that my school is the best school in the city.

Thanks to the flowering garden, the school building has a magnificent view. Its grassy lawns and gravel paths flanked by flowers, as well as the Ahsoka trees growing near the gate, enhance this beauty. To any person from the outside it may seem that this is a memorial building.
Besides beautiful building, spacious areas and flower beds, there are other things that attract special attention. There is a large swimming pool where students learn to swim.

The teachers are highly experienced and well versed in their subjects. Our teachers are quite strict. They teach us with great attention, check our notebooks, help us when we need it, but if we are inattentive and do not work properly, then we are punished.

What I like about my school is the discipline that reigns here. The headmaster and teachers are very disciplined and have a strong character. They do not allow students to misbehave or be undisciplined.
Much attention is paid to the formation of character, moral education and the acquisition of correct life values. Although the school looks like a rather strict place where everyone lives according to the schedule, there is also a place for fun and joy.

Video on how to write a story about school:
my school
many people look back on school years with sadness and some nostalgia; others, on the contrary, with hatred and boredom. As for me, I am fond of my school. I study in the 10th form of a local comprehensive school which provides advanced study of some subjects. I chose the class of Maths because I think that I'm good at it. And other subjects don't come so easy to me. So there are 6 lessons of Maths every week in our timetable. By the way we don't have those day-books which our parents used to have. All our marks can be checked in a special electronic register on the Internet.
The building of our school is very big and made of red brick. It's neither old nor new, but it is well-equipped and modern inside. Our school has 3 floors. The classrooms are spacious and light. Many of them are equipped with a teacher's computer, a TV-set and an electronic board. There are 2 computer classes, a library with a reading-room, an assembly-hall, a dining hall, a gymnasium and a swimming-pool in our school. There are also 2 football fields and a sports ground outside the building.
The bell for the first lesson rings at half past 8 and we usually finish at about 2 or 3 p.m. As a rule we have 6 or 7 lessons a day and we study 6 days a week. There is a long 20-minute break after the 4th lesson to have lunch or just a snack.
I love and respect our principal and most of our teaching stuff. Although some of them are quite strict and old-fashioned, they give very interesting lessons and proper knowledge. The atmosphere in our class is always friendly and busy. Fortunately we haven't had any bullying or rude behavior among our classmates. I made best friends with some of them. We often take part in school activities together. There are musical performances, intellectual games, concerts, school and inter-school sports competitions and class parties in our school. I "m sure I will miss my school life after I finish the 11th form.
Many people look back on their school days with sadness and nostalgia; others, on the contrary, with hatred and boredom. Personally, I love my school. I am in 10th grade at a local comprehensive school that offers in-depth study in some subjects. I chose the math class because I think I have a knack for it. Other subjects don't come easy to me. Therefore, in our schedule there are 6 math lessons per week. By the way, we don't have diaries like our parents had. All our estimates can be checked in a special electronic journal on the Internet.
Our school building is very large and built of red brick. It is neither old nor new, but it is well equipped and modern inside. Our school has 3 floors. The classrooms are spacious and bright. Many of them are equipped with a teacher's computer, TV and electronic board. Our school has 2 computer labs, a library with a reading room, an assembly hall, a canteen, a gym and a swimming pool. Outside the building there are also two football fields and a sports ground.
The bell for the first lesson rings at 8.30 and we usually finish around 2-3 in the afternoon. As a rule, every day we have 6-7 lessons, and we study 6 days a week. After 4 lessons there is a long 20 minute break for lunch or just a snack.
I love and respect our director and most of the teaching staff. Although some of them are quite strict and old-fashioned, they provide very interesting lessons and necessary knowledge. The atmosphere in our class is always friendly and businesslike. Fortunately, we never had aggression or rude behavior among classmates. I found the best friends among them. We often take part in school activities together. The school hosts musical performances, intellectual games, concerts, school and interscholastic sports competitions and evenings in the classroom. I am sure that I will miss school when I finish 11th grade.
