“In high school, we discovered that as we learn and explore new aspects of life, we become

more vulnerable to confusion. We have matured over the years and have f inally come to the realization that confusion is just the step

before mastery. Whether in school or out in the real world, confusion is good because it means

you are only one step away from understanding.”

Natalie Yakobian New Community Jewish High School University of California, Los Angeles “High school is hard on the heart ... There’s all the breakups, makeups and multiple screwups. We’ve all said hello to firsts and goodbye to lasts, and there are times when our hearts have felt like they’re being torn apart. But like any muscle, a little tear is the only way for it to grow.”

Elaine Luterstein Sherman Oaks Center for Enriched Studies University of California, San Diego
