Senior Skip day

At first I really liked this assignment because it was a way to be creative and funny. We were able to write about something that applied to us which made this a lot of fun. Fred and I just brainstormered ideas that would work and came up with senior skip day. We had trouble coming up with how we were going to structure the paper and came up with stating what to do how to plan it and something else I dont remember cause I dont have the paper fred does. once we got going it was very easy but it was harder to get started than i thought it would be. To fix it we would add a conclusion and fix some of our bullet points. If I were to fix it I would give it a better intro that was more catchy.

How to Utilize Your Senior Skip Day

Senior skip day is a day in which seniors don’t go to any of their classes and instead enjoy a day of leisure and fun.  It’s a tradition most commonly seen in Canadian and American high schools.  On this day the whole senior classes excuse themselves from school and do things.  Popular skip days have been known to fall on Halloween, April 20^th and May 5^th.  On this particular day someone can do a countless number of things, and it should be something exciting.  So this paper is a guide to help you utilize your day off from school productively. 

Steps to plan a senior skip day so that it actually works

            Many times in high school a bunch of seniors may randomly decide to skip school and tell a couple of people, hoping it will get out and other seniors will get the memo.  However this is not always effective, and many times only a handful of kids actually end up hearing about it.  If it’s not planned and thought out it wont’ happen.  In some cases being spontaneous is alright, but in this case it isn’t a good idea.  We thought up some ways that you can be sure that this day will happen.  Some ideas are listed below. 

• Make a Facebook group
• Text every senior in your contacts
• Make an announcement in the commons during free
• Get a teacher to agree on the date so they can pass it on to all their senior students
• Talk an administrator into going on the intercom or morning announcements to prodcast the date

The wrong way to spend your senior skip day

When given the privileged not to attend school there are certain things you should not do.  It’s you day off, so you should be having fun and not be boring.  Many people look at this day as a way to catch up on sleep or do an essay that’s due the next day, but this is not a good idea.  On your day off you should take advantage of the opportunity and not do the following listed below. 

• sleep
• do homework
• go to school
• work
• clean
• not hang out with people
• get arrested
• drive your siblings to school
• Get caught

The correct way to spend your senior skip day

As stated in the previous paragraph your senior skip day should not be boring.  If senior skip day is on a Friday the following would work out better because an extended weekend means more time to enjoy your day off. Some ideas on how to accomplish this are listed below. 

• Road trip
• Go to the beach
• Do something unoriginal
