As on April 1, 2015, the Southeast School Board has decided to have the senior class of 2015 stay until the final day of school, June 2, 2015.
            “Seniors do not need to miss out on the final days of school. It prepares them for college and enhances their learning skills,” teacher Twixie Paterson said.
Seniors will be taking all of the required finals and will not be allowed to leave during the school day, even if the students do not have a final at the required time.
“Seniors don’t need to lose out on the idea that they are ending school early, and then go right into college and be lazy and flunk out,” Paterson said.
Seniors will also lose senior week, senior scip day, and they will be required to take ITEDS. Juniors will receive the last week off, and will not have to take any finals.
“I cannot believe this,” Senior James Franco said. Franco has been looking forward to senior week all year, and especially getting out early.

“Seniors have survived four years of high school, I believe they can get out a week earlier than the lower classmen. I’m disturbed, and most likely will not be coming the last week, I don’t deserve to come to school anyway.”

 APRIL FOOLS!

The questions are centered on the material learned in the class throughout the semester. The most recent FRQ pertained to the information learned in the second unit of the book over population and migration.                 The students had the opportunity to take their first FRQs home to work on them overnight.                 “I thought that for the first one it would be good to do a take home assignment to gently get [them] into it. Next we’ll be doing one in class and eventually as a test,” said Gross.                 When grading the tests, Gross looks at the responses the way any AP grader would when looking at them this summer.                 “I look for: Did you answ

These aren’t just ordinary sticky notes, on every single sticky note there is an inspirational quote to start your day.                 During spring break, students that are a part of stand for the silent got together and made a sticky note for every single locker in this school. Mrs. Goodrich is in charge of this club and actually came up with the idea. “We did it to uplift people after coming back from break,” sophomore Cassidy Oberbroeckling said.                 When asking other students what they thought of the idea, they responded with positive feedback. “It was a very good idea and it was cool to walk around and see all of the different messages,” senior Nic Henderson said.                 Doing these creative messages can really help to brighten a student’s day after everyone
