Advice for Seniors
The pressure is on from everyone with questions and suggestions from near and far on how to survive your senior year of high school. I've come up with a few tips to help get you through!
Get out of your comfort zone. Nothing new and exciting happens inside your comfort zone.
Push yourself now, 'cause you'll regret it later in life. Finish out strong. Don't settle for C's.
Your more than just a number. If you applied for a school and you did not get accepted, it just means you were a good match. Be true to yourself.
Be open to change. I know many who have decided on a different school after being set on their dream college since freshman year.
Take tons of pictures during your senior year.
& Don't forget video's. Record yourself walking through the halls. It will mean a lot once to look back on it years from now.
Be nice to your underclassmen. In ten years, they will be peers and age will not matter. Heck, they might become your boss someday.
Take the time to help out those Freshman. They will be the leaders once you leave.
If you don't know what you want to do after high school. Follow your passion.
