Last Stand

Written by Sonny Barker

Some may feel that Senior year is the easiest or might be easier than Junior year but that all just depends on your schedule and your classes and if you play sports or not. So all those variables are what makes your senior year because if you have AP classes and play a sport also it takes a lot of time away from you with the homework, the practices and games you have to do or be in.

​

Then there are a lot of SAT’s and ACT’s that you have to take if you are looking for a score that you would prefer colleges to see then some may think senior year is the easiest because once they get accepted into a college they start coasting and don't care about their grades in their classes because they think colleges won't check their senior year grades.

Then some feel Senior year will be easy so they want to rush through the year but then when it's over they wish they could go back to those cherishable moments like all the sports, games, and dances.

I asked a fellow student Ramon Amaya his thoughts on his last year in high school, and he responded with “I hope to get through the last year and finish as strong as possible.  I feel like I've had senioritis this year and I feel like there will always be that group of kids with it. College apps aren’t going to be much for me because I don't plan on going to a four year college-  I'm going to be going to an automotive college or UTI.”
