A Teen's Perspective on Senior Week
Over the years, I heard of the many horrors and fun experiences of Senior Week. Both my older sisters went to the beach to celebrate their graduation with their friends. They had the kind of beach week all high school students dream of. It is my goal to have as much, if not more fun. I have also heard of seniors ruining their relationships, trying dangerous drugs, and permanently damaging their record right before college just to have more fun at Senior Week.
