It ain't over yet!

Spring break is over, and now we're heading into the final quarter of the school year. New Year's seems like a distant memory... Thanksgiving a speck on my brain. And our first graduating class is about to say goodbye in just 12 weeks! Wow.

Speaking of the senior class and spring break, it seems the break also meant a break from the blog. Our last poll, which asked How many of our seniors have seniorits, received an unprecedented rate of responses. One could conclude that the lack of responses--we in fact, received NONE at all--is a clear sign of the pandemic at PMA. From a teacher's perspective (and I promise to be brief), it seems senioritis is spreading like mold. Some students think they can coast along and do nothing, if they show up at all, because Senior Projects are done. But it's startling that one-third of the class hasn't even completed the requirement... You can't declare yourself a winner in the third quarter of the game, especially if you rode the bench since half time. It ain't over yet, folks!

Meanwhile, our next poll asks how students feel about their senior year. Was it what you expected? Do you wish it had been better? Tell us! You have until April 14!
