High schools in the U.S. are constantly changing their strategies to make sure that students are successful. For example, many schools now use a competency-based approach to learning, which allows students to progress through material at their own pace. Organizing your schoolwork doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Some strategies that work well for high school students are time management, setting goals, and breaking down tasks into smaller chunks. High schools are also experimenting with new ways to help students stay organized, such as assigning a personal advisor that helps students plan their days and work on their goals.
