Turning the leaf from junior year to senior year in high school ~ A Teen Girl’s Perspective


For those of us who recently received course selection forms and booklets for next year, we most likely noticed “For Rising Seniors” written on the cover of the booklets.

As our eyes popped out of our heads we realized that WE are the rising seniors!

It seems like just yesterday that we were terrified about beginning our freshman year of high school; and now we’re on the verge of starting our last year in our very familiar surroundings.

Time has flown by so fast it seems crazy!

As freshmen we yearned for the day we would become seniors.

But now that we’re almost there, we feel the excitement about our accomplishments; however, we also feel some anxiety about what our futures hold.

Although we may be very scared about this next step in our lives, we can remember that if we’ve made it this far we have what it takes to go even further.
