As the first finals week of the 2019 – 2020 school years comes to a close, stress is lowering but hopefully grades are rising.

“I am glad that this week will be over soon so I can start preparing for the next marathon of studying,” senior Regan Bishop mentioned about heading into the next semester.

“This year is much easier than [junior] year. I have more opens but I also understand my classes more than in the past,” said fellow senior Grace Carr about the difference between the difficult year of junior year and her last year of high school.

To end the infamous finals week, students get out at 12:15 p.m. the Friday after the season of testing.
