Fifth period Choir: four seniors along with students from other grades

D.J. Pickell decided to wait to take a day off from school until it gets warmer outside.

“Everywhere I would go, other kids from school would also be there, so I am going to wait until a warmer day where I can enjoy it away from school,” Pickell said.

Meanwhile, I have been checking in via cell phone with my friends and fellow seniors who did skip today, and the majority of them took this time to sleep in and to go out to eat with their friends.

One senior I spoke to went to breakfast with friends and then to the mall.

“It was nice to be able to have a day to relax with my friends. By the time we are seniors, we deserve a day off of school,” this senior said.
