Winter Break is on the horizon, and students are excited to wrap up their school work and rest up for the holidays. However, this is not the case for all students, as many are leaving at the end of this week to beat the holiday rush. This comes with a lot of stress, as students have to finish the work they’ll be missing early on top of the work that is already due.
“I have so much to get done before I leave this weekend,” Junior Alexandra Valdes said. “If I let it sit until after I come back I’ll probably forget most of the material.”
Since Winter Break this year starts next Thursday, it’ll only be a three day school week. Many classes aren’t expected to be productive as some teachers are also looking to get out early and beat the holiday traffic as well.
