Senior Society!

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

So I was talking with @The Wandering Wizard, and I thought it might be fun to make a thread for the rising seniors to discuss our senior year and all the chaos that will ensue! Cause it's going to be an awesome/stressful/insane year! If you're a senior, check in here, and join the awesomeness!

Feel free to also consider this an advice thread, youngerclassmen, for you people to ask for advice from us wise and experienced Seniors. Cause everyone knows we know everything

And places to avoid, like the bathroom at all costs, well almost all.

*hides* 

High school bathrooms are scary, scary places

 

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

That they are. 

Does your school have something set up that you can go and take some classes in a pathway at a nearby community college or something that allows you to take higher level than high school classes? And I don't mean AP classes.

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

My school unfortunately only has AP classes. No dual credit

Fun fact: my graduating class is about 68 kids. Tiny

That is tiny, mine is closer to a normal size. As I don't know the number at my school except it is probably around ~500, give or take about 50.

Per grade? Or per class? I have no idea what a normal school looks like XD

What classes are you taking?

Edit: I go to a public school btw, I'm just surrounded by tiny schools haha

Per grade as our school is over 2,000 students.

I have creative writing for first.

AP Calc diff second.

Chamber orchestra third.

Physics fourth

And then I have lunch, take a bus and take either General Animal biology or General chemistry at the local community college in the agriculture/biology pathway. Though I had planned on taking the programming pathway, but that would have been in the morning not the afternoon. And I am really enjoying the switch! As I love chemistry and animal biology is interesting, they have four animals, a ball python named Simon, A gecko named Mochi that I can't remember the breed, a dutch rabbit name Cinnabun, softest fur ever, and a guinea pig that is too fat for a wheel. And a few students are assigned for each animal, and I get to help take care of Cinnabun! 

What classes are you taking?

That's so cool! Cinnabun is an adorable name! That sounds like so much fun  

How does it work with the community college? Are you taking it with other college students? What's the environment like?

The community college set it up a while ago I think. The community college has a seperate wing set aside for it and only juniors and seniors can take classes there. It's a good enviroment as those that are at the school are those that choose to be there and work hard. A example would be that they never had to close their bathrooms last year when the highschools had to. It seems like college and that is part of why I enjoy it so much.

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Oh wow that's awesome! I wish our school had a separate wing for those who wanted to work hard. I have a friend at a neighboring school that said someone stole the bathroom sink/mirror and brought it home 

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

I meant the wing is a seperate wing at the community college and they offer free bussing there and back. 

Some similar stuff happened in our school, including atleast one mirror disappearing.

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Oh sorry I misread it!

Why the heck do people do that? Makes no sense to me.

Nothing of the sort this year...yet. 

And schools do have a place for the serious students, they call it the E wing(orchestra wing). 

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

Alas, one year left....I WILL RETURN AGAIN LATER!

Yeah in the US seniors are 12 graders

Though if 10th grade is a senior there, you're absolutely welcome to join the Senior Society

[EmulatonStromenkiin he/him]

Yea, I'm a senior too. Anyone go to Canyon View?

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

No, I live in an entirely different state.

[Shining Silhouette he/him]

Yeah, I'm in NY

[EmulatonStromenkiin he/him]
