The Senior Slide

As high school students begin their senior year, many students think it's time to relax and have fun after three years of hard work. This attitude is called the "senior slide."

As you settle into your class schedule, remember that colleges and universities will look closely at your senior year grades. Many schools ask students to submit their first semester grades or a mid-term report.

This isn't the time to slack off. Remember: Have fun during your senior year, but also stay focused on your academics. Keep up the good work.
