Goals ??

For my english class I have to write an essay about my current/future goals that are mostly educational based and I need a little bit of help... We have to write four paragraphs: 1)Goals for your current grade (9th) 2)Goals for pre-graduation (goals to prepare you to graduate highschool) 3)Goals for post-graduation (goals for after you graduate highschool) 4)Future career goals I don't need any help with paragraph 4, but I do need help on the others, I am almost done must my paragraphs aren't quite long enough, so I need a few more goals I am NOT asking for you to write an essay for me, I'm just asking you to list a couple goals that I could write about because I am at a loss. Thanks :D

My advise is don't shine it on. What is your real dream for those time periods? Seriously, what would you be willing to really focus on and work towards? Once you have that, you set your objectives- what are the steps to get you to that dream. Then you set your goals (or you can call them expectations) which are the daily activities you need to achieve your objectives then your dreams. Blow your teacher's mind by not only stating what you want, but also by stating how you're gonna do it! Then finish it all off by asking him/her to be the person who holds you accountable for the daily expectations you have set. (This will involve some kind of reporting on your part to him/her.)
