Senior year ending-

As the school year is coming to a close, it seems that most of my teachers just don't care. In my math class, instead of less homework being assigned, she decided that it would be best for the class that, which is mostly made up of seniors, to begin collecting the homework and have it graded. Not only that, she made sure that new system will be in place till the last couple days of my pre-calc class.

Now for my AP European teacher, I do not feel that it is his fault for giving out so much work at the end of the year. But instead it is my fault. For some reason, I felt that it would make sense, college level or not, that a class would respect the idea that as the year comes to an end the work load would become lighter. Well, sadly enough, it was a disturbing realization when the teacher told the class that from the beginning of April till May 14th, because that is when we take the AP exam, the class work load will be at its peak. But luckily, for those that are takign the AP exam on the 14th, that will essentially conclude our class. Even the teacher said that we will most likely just be watching movies and doing fun activities up until the end of the school year.

I understand the concept that no matter what date it is, we still have to learn in class. Although myself and I am sure many other students would greatly appreciate it if the teachers of this school would help lower the amount of work that is be assigned at the end of the year. Due to it getting much warmer outside, no one wants to be inside a class room. A classroom that has no air-conditioning  and that is simply uncomfortable. But of course, these are just my thoughts, and here at BHS, unless you are part the part of the student council, and even then it matters very little, your voice is simply not heard. All I can do is hope that the rest of the year simply goes by fast.
