We, The Seniors of Rock Hill School District, believe that we have the right to an earlier last day of school like the seniors before us. This is a right that has been wrongfully taken away from us. Those few days before graduation when we could leave early, was a time for us to spend with our friends. With all of us getting ready to graduate, it is a time for us to create those last memories with our high school friends before we leave. Those few days are also a time for us to spend with our relatives who live out of town. With everything that has to happen for graduation, we might only have time to actually be with them on those few days that we have out of school. We believe that we have the right to be out of school at least three days earlier than the rest of the school. This has been something that we have looked forward to ever since we were freshman. Allow us to have that right as seniors.

I think that we should have senior days because it was granted to the classes before us. Students like myself and many other have worked hard to become a senior so I feel like it’s fair to continue the tradition.
I am appalled that this right has been taken away from this year’s graduating class. I had this time, the seniors before me had this time, and this is something that pulls the relief off of seniors and has since it started. It is disrespectful, to say the least, how this year’s seniors have been treated in comparison to classes before them. The gates. The forced extra class time. The denial of in-school clubs. Some of my best memories of my senior year have been ripped the repeated opportunity for this year’s graduating class. It is disrespectful and disgusting that such things would be taken away from these students.
Everyone else in previous years were allowed to why not us? Plus those days are also used for senior make up school which we will need!
As a NHS alumni I have to say that this is ridiculous. Freshmen look up to the long 4 years ahead thinking of the rewards that will come as a senior. Getting out of school early has always been one of the biggest things to look forward to being a senior. It’s fair. They earned it.
I am a parent and I support this as well. Students and parents need time to prep for the graduation ceremony. Stress levels are high and they need time to decompress from a hard year
Eh, just seems like the logical thing to do.
Why would this right being taken anyway?

We had the right in class of 2018. I remember I got to spend quality time with my friends and make more memories with them before everyone went their separate ways to adulthood. Don’t take these moments away from them. They deserve it.
