Senior Skip Days

We all know they exist. And we all know that one is coming up. The monday after homecoming is a legendary senior skip day, and one which I will not participate in. I value winning fall student athlete rather than a day off, because I believe that will make senior year more memorable. I originally was going to skip, too. One thing I want to do with my senior year is have fun! I don't want to be constantly drowned by homework. That doesn't sound fun to me at all! My priorities of course, lie with my grades, and I have too many borderline classes to miss at the very end of the quarter. Maybe I'll be able to participate in the next one. I do think that participating is worth it. As long as you're not skipping like once a month, and you keep your grades up, I think it's an okay privilege to use sparingly. I also do think that the amount of work you have to make up is worth, as long as you actually have fun on that day. I wouldn't want to waste my day just sitting around. You should catch up on sleep, then party hard with friends! (without alcohol, of course). I feel that senior skip days are important, because they let seniors have some piece of mind amongst all of the craziness. Everyone could use a break now and then.
