What do Central students do after school.
Sophomore Abigail Juneau says, “The first thing I do when I get home is go tell my mom all about my day. I usually don’t study at home. If I get a review sheet I’ll look over it in class before the one I have the test in. I usually have some chips like Dool Ranch Doritos or just some popcorn. I do cheer leading, so I’ll either have cheer practice sometimes after school. On days I don’t cheer, I’ll meet up with my friends or I’ll go out with my boyfriend. I do help my parents around the house. I do laundry, dishes, sweep and mop.”
Aniyah Roberson also told us about her life outside of school. “When I get home the first thing I do is go to my room and I set my stuff down and change my clothes. I sometimes go find myself a snack and something to drink. I am a cheerleader here at Central; so If I have a game I try to rest before and get a quick nap in. If I don’t have a good day, I just chill in the living room or in my room on my phone. Around 6 or 7 I am ready to eat dinner and take my shower and get in the bed.”
Mr.Fletcher speculated about what he thinks a typical student’s life after the school day might look like. “I think students go home and take a nap for a couple of hours. When they wake up they lay down in bed and watch TV and eat snacks for the rest of their day. I wouldn’t say that for all kids though. Some may practice after school or may have a good time. Some may have to work after school. But I don’t think most study till the day of the test or right before. I used to do the same thing sometimes or may have even forgotten there was a test. If it was a really big test I would always study the night before and the day of and right before the test.”
