Current juniors looking forward to enjoying an off period may be surprised to find out that it won’t be as easy next year.

The administrators set a list of requirements that students must have completed before a counselor will consider giving a student an off period. There are some requirements that all students must do, but some items on the checklist will be personalized for each student to help them toward their goals for senior year.

“It’s a good cause but they should be a little less strict,” junior Ashwanae Barrett said. “I understand they are trying to help us juniors become seniors and be ready for the real world.”
The list was created by administrators and counselors.

The checklist helps students get their FAFSA/TAFSA filed, college applications completed, and to obtain college scholarships.
