In 2004, Coral Gables Senior High School, I was sitting waiting for my advisor, exciting and nervous to get my high school diploma next year 2005.

Why Defend Senior Prom in High School The first time I heard about senior prom is after I came to study in America, two years ago. It seems that almost everyone in the school looks forward to the senior prom. I found that senior prom is a rite event in America. Something that should not be missed.

There are several reasons for this: I had a more independent lifestyle than my junior year, I started working for an amazing company downtown, and I met a lot of friends.

I would love to be a member of the senior planning team because the senior planning team helps promote change within the school. I believe, along with many other leadership teams at Alpena High School, the senior planning team is empowered by the staff, administration, and other seniors to make important decisions that powerfully impact the school and senior class. Without the senior planning team, many decisions would be left to the staff/administration to decide and, while this is still an…

Going into my senior year I was aware that there was going to be a new girls soccer coach in which I was very upset about. I already worked my butt off to make the team and show my potential and it paid off, but then my coach decided to leave for personal reasons.
