My Senior Year Is The Senior Year Of High School

702 Words2 Pages

To some students, senior year means parties, prom, graduation, and senior week but my focus is mainly to accomplish these three things: make it to playoffs for field hockey, receive honor roll as much as I possibly can, and simply make the most of my last year in high school. Senior year is the last year you spend with all the friends you have grown up with. I believe that senior year is the most important year of high school because it is your last “free” year. After senior year you either head onto college, start a career in the work force, or enlist in the military. You are no longer viewed as a child and are on your way to starting adulthood. Senior year helps to determine where you will go in life and how successful you could be.

  • Jeff Zentner's The Serpent King: Response

    895 Words  | 2 Pages

    Senior year is a pivotal point in the lives of so many. It is the last of many “firsts” and the first of many “lasts.” A huge theme in the novel is having to give things up or leave them behind. Lydia deciding to move from Tennessee to New York for college requires her to leave behind her friends (including her new relationship) and family, giving up her car, and giving up the comfort and peace of her small town. If Dill decided to stay in Forrestville and work at Floyd’s, he would have been giving up the possibility of ever amounting to more than his name. By Dill deciding to go to MTSU, he gives up trying to please his parents, he gives up his fear of following in the Early’s footsteps, and he gives up thoughts of surrender or suicide. When Travis decides to finally stand up to his dad he has to leave behind his mom and his own home, but he also gets to leave behind the abuse. The challenges that Lydia, Dill, and Travis face when deciding to move forward with their lives during and after high school are real and relevant to so many young

  • Senior Project

    1520 Words  | 4 Pages

    In addition to gaining a great deal of creditability from doing the Senior Project, or also referred to as the Culminating Project, students also gain something even more valuable than praise from accomplishing an obscure assignment, a diploma. Yes, the Senior Project, of all things, is required to graduate high school, it’s no wonder seniors get senioritis, and desire to extract as soon as possible. Now, these aren’t all the exact reasons as to why it is required of by each individual, because there are many reasons as to why it is necessary and how it will be more beneficial than tedious, at least to some people, namely school boards or any other administrators of education. Their motives are so that the student may further prepare himself or herself for college or careers. This opinion may be true, that it indeed does prepare some students for their futures, but that doesn’t guarantee that it will prepare all students for what will come after high school. All it can provide is the basics that administrators find essential. Sure the topic is open as to what can be chosen to present on, but within that freedom are regulations.
