April fools is the day meant for tricks, making mischief but more importantly, tons of fun. There are some that relish the day while there are others who dislike it. April Fools pranking can be taken too far and can create situations that may encourage destructive or malicious behaviors. Mr. Raymond Yost said, “In my opinion, it is not appropriate for students to prank teachers. It is better to avoid scenarios that may result in a student being reprimanded for something that was avoidable in the first place. Depending on the severity of an incident, students engaging in pranks taken too far may receive consequences as minor as a formal warning and as severe as out-of-school suspension or even expulsion.”

Students prepare for the next school year by completing their schedule. Junior Ava Jefferson shared her excitement for next school year. “When we had the meeting to schedule classes it felt unreal. It felt just like yesterday that I was a freshman. Everyone says moving on from high-school is a good thing, but I think they miss the point of it being a scary thing as well. Coming into senior year, I am looking forward to making the best memories with my friends. Im also looking forward to the majorette season, because it’s my last year, and I have the opportunity to become captain. I should have believed all the upper class men when I was a freshman that said the time will fly by, because they were very true.”
