Senioritis: I think it’s safe to say that most of us seniors suffer from this condition; making us sleep through first period and wait until the due date to even start an assignment. I know I’ve been slacking a lot this semester; I’ve shown up to school late everyday and I even turned in this article to my editor late. Senioritis definitely takes a toll on us and though many people say that senioritis is not real, trust me, it is. When you begin to slack off, your grades suffer. Even though it might be your last year in highschool, it is still very important to keep your grades up. If you don’t pass all of your classes you may miss out on the experience of walking the stage on graduation. And if you’ve been accepted into any universities, your acceptance can be revoked if your grades fall. We don’t want that to happen.
Senioritis is a struggle, yes, but it isn’t terribly difficult to overcome. You just need to be motivated enough to actually do your work when it is assigned. Prioritize school work over social media and utilize all of the resources available to students. Your GPA will survive.
The truth is though, senioritis isn’t exclusive to seniors. We all know that one kid who’s had senioritis since freshman year. Some of us started freshman year thinking it’s cool to not care about high school and kept that mindset. We are only three months away from graduating. If you could just stick it through for two more months it’ll be worth it. Good luck with your senioritis!
