Class of 2017 define “senior slump”
May 19, 2017

Joe Orlandella: “[Senior slump is] when you’re late to every class, if you even bother to show up.”
Kiera Connell: “[Senior slump is] when you don’t have to do any work at all because you already got into college.”

Lulu Philip: “Senior slump is putting your backpack down when you get home, and not picking it up until the next morning.”
Callie Junkin: “Senior slump is getting to four corners when class starts, but then saying “Nah” and going to Dunks.”

Jack Fletcher: “I would say senior slump is playing spikeball during frees.”

Syd Hsu: “Senior slump is knowing it’s all over and coming to an end, which means giving up on any motivation.”

Izzy Rubin: “Senior slump is the process of caring less and less about school and grades, considering only one college will receive your final grades.”

Curran Murphy: “Senior slump is when seniors take a little of like a break almost. Not necessarily not work at all, but don’t stress as much or worry about the little things, like getting every homework problem right or done. Not stressing out a ton over the next test and studying like 5 hours, maybe just reviewing notes or something.”

"We all drink lots of water, and it's such an important resource that we kind of take for granted nowadays."](https://waylandstudentpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/IMG_2024-1200x800.jpg)
