Cherish the speldndid high school life and you'll harvest a fulfilling studenthood.

Is the underlined "studenthood" correctly written? I guess it comes from childhood,

Is it acceptable? If not, what should I replace with?

Thanks!

Jason
 
No, but I can't think of a suitable replacement. I would say something like "your student years will be fulfilling." (note: splendid)
 
Or perhaps "your time as a student will be fulfilling".
 
However, I sort of like "studenthood" (even if the term does not really exist). I mean: parenthood, childhood, brotherhood, so "studenthood" would seem to have a place there ;-).
 
Worse words have been coined than this one. But right now, if you use it, it will be considered a mistake by many.
