Senior Year Research Paper

I cant believe that I am finally a senior in high school it seems just like yesterday I was beginning high school. As I begin my final year I am beginning to realize that this year I will be faced with many responsibilities and will make tons of memories. But I hope that I am able to make my senior year the best yet. Through this final year I hope to have passing grades in all of my classes, to win pep rallies, and to have perfect attendance.

Sophomore year had ended, and my summer had just begun. After a long wait to gain permission to go on a backpacking trip. My father gave me the approval. I took my love for the outdoors and began to explore it even more.

High school, four of the most interesting years of life. It is a time to find yourself and figure out who you are and what you want your place in this world to be. During this process comes friendships that build because of alike interests and beliefs. From freshman year at the bottom of the totem pole, all the way to senior year, being the top dog of your school. It is such a great feeling knowing that those three years of hard work build up to essentially a grand finale. Many big changes happen as you grow older in high school. From summer camps, to starts of a new year. From homecoming week, to the end of sport seasons. From in school privileges to coming to and leaving from school early, and finally Graduation. This grand finale year has some similarities and some differences and as you read on you will see what I mean.

Attending High School is hard enough, especially that last year in High School, yes senior year. Now let's add college classes to that and my High School routine is eat, school, and sleep. In the past, I’ve made horrible mistakes for not knowing how tough courses can get especially with an overload and not studying "right". This year I’ve made changes and improved on how, when and where I study to earn good grades and improve my knowledge.

Do you think that seniors should be allowed to skip senior year of highschool? Is senior year unproductive and not as educational as the previous years of high school? Is skipping senior year and going straight to college the best for the students.

His first ride in a military jet was during his freshman year. He flew in a Lockheed T-33 (109-115). The summer before his sophomore year, he went through survival training. It was called SERE training, which stood for “survival, evasion, resistance, and escape.” It was designed to teach them skills if they were captured, how to not be captured, and just basic survival skills. By sophomore year, Sully realized how all of the skills he had learned helped him mature. His sophomore year, Sully got an outstanding amount of flying experience and instruction. He signed up to

I thought Senior year would never come. Well it came and arrived sooner than I though. I've been planning life after high school for a while now but, this year makes everything seem surreal. I thought I had everything planned out, ready to go, and this year would be a piece a cake. I've never been more wrong. The stress of senior year and accomplishing what I need to to graduate so i can further my education in college is weighing me down. Sometimes I need to take a step back, take a deep breath, and just calm down. I know with everything in me I am cabe of whatever I set my mind to as long as I don't let minor obstacles hold me back.

Senior year: you never see it coming. Before you start high school, you are told that the next four years of your life will be the best times. You are also told that those same 4 years will go by faster than you expect. Going into highschool I never expected it to go by fast. I thought these amazing four years of my life were going to drag on forever. Now I realize that is far from true. I am now a second semester senior and the time clock is almost to zero. Joining orchesis was one of the best things I could have ever done in high school. Being involved in something makes senior year that much harder. Everything you do is your last. You know you're a senior when it is time for you to make the senior chant for show.

Senior project, the highlight of senior year. An event that most look forward to in hopes to gain experience with a project of their choice. An opportunity for students to use a skill set that they have acquired throughout their high school careers and apply it to their passions. When I initially began planning for my personal senior project, I had so many things going on in my mind as to what I would like to complete that I didn’t even know where to start! Initially, I wanted to learn and gain experience with welding. Then, over the summer prior to senior year, my father and I traveled up north to visit old friends and spent quite some time out on the sea. I developed a passion for sailing and our family-friends sea adventure stories and hoped

Senior year was going to be the best one yet. I was going to be involved and fully enjoy it. However, my excitement started to diminish when my best friend got a boyfriend a month before school started. I didn’t think things would change at first, but suddenly I no longer had a constant companion at social events. The nights where we’d hang out were gone, and I found myself constantly third-wheeling. My hope for an amazing senior year was gone; I lost my best friend, and I felt miserably alone. (499)

A misconception I have heard during my high school year is that high school will be the life of the party literally of “life”. With this, they say that with all the events, mistakes, dances, field trips, club joining, fundraisers, learning, sports, rallies, carnivals, and classes throughout the process of a high schooler to the big exciting events that come during senior year they say.

Senior year of high school is often thought of—by many older people—as the year you slack off and take easy classes. Well, why not? I mean, they’ve worked hard to get here, so why not go easy on yourself, as a reward. Contrary to the belief of those people, senior year is when you should be taking the most challenging classes in order to be prepared for college coursework.

When you think about high school, you think about what you have seen on TV and movies or what you heard from other people's experiences. You will make your own assumptions about what high school is like but won't know for sure until you get there. But when you think about your senior year, you automatically think that senior year is the best year you will have because of many reasons. 1.) It's the last year of high school. 2.) You're preparing to go to college and can't wait to get away from your parents. 3.) You’re to prom in a beautiful dress with that special someone. 4.) Celebrating senior week with you fellow classmates. And fifth and last reason is Graduation where you say goodbye to your teachers and classmates but say hello to new adventures. Senior year makes you feel like the world is yours. My senior year, however, was different from others.

There comes one of the saddest times of the year when a girl must put away her bikini and shorts and trade them in for a knee length skirt and a shirt that shows no shoulders, we call this back to school time. I am luckily entering my senior year so really all you will see me doing is counting down the days to my graduation! No totally kidding this by far has to be the most emotional year of high school, you are realizing you probably wont be seeing your friends in the halls next year and you wont be going home to Mom's cooking and sisters screaming. Don't get me wrong there are definitely days (weeks, months, whole lifetimes) I'm excited to leave the house and never want to see the people from my school again but its also the realization that so much will change and honestly you are finely

Most students believe that they have it made when they reach their final year of high school. Most also conceived the idea that their year will go by leisurely; but as a senior you face the most challenging obstacles that will test your integrity. Depending on the kind of person you are these challenges will make or break you. In turn leading to your downfall or your success. The choice is truly yours and I have made mine.
