It’s a tradition at Northwood to have a senior skip day, when seniors skip all their classes and spend the day doing whatever they want. The class of 2024 just had their senior skip day on Monday, May 6, and we’re going to hear from some seniors about what they spent their day doing.
“I Started off my senior skip day by sleeping in, which was nice,” Lea Lambert ’24 said. “Then I met up with some friends and walked into town to the public beach. We spent pretty much the rest of the day there tanning, playing Spike Ball and swimming. It was a beautiful day out, blue skies and no clouds. It was a very memorable day!” Lambert added.
“All the senior girls went down to the public Lake Placid beach,” said Kristen Kiggen ‘24. “We had a lot of fun. I got to know people I haven’t spoken to all year. We played lots of Spike Ball, got a little competitive and may have fallen a couple times in the sand. Lesson learned: running in sand is harder than it seems. Overall, it was such a fun day. I was just happy the whole day. It was a beautiful out and was a really great experience,” Kiggen added.
“I started my morning off by waking up bright and early and hiking Cobble,” said Shayna Deutsch. “Sadly, we couldn’t really see the sunset because it was cloudy and then started to rain on the hike down. After that, I got a quick nap in and then headed to the public beach. I played lots of Spike Ball and got to spend good quality time with my friends, it was a great day,” added Deutsch.
“For senior skip day, I headed to the Lake Placid public beach with some friends and met up with more people there,” Sam Rudy said. “It was a great day, and fun to not have to go to classes,“ Rudy said.
“I had a good senior skip day,” said Sachiel Ming. I started the day off hiking Cobble and then headed to the beach in Lake Placid with some friends. I got to play Spike Ball, do some cold swimming and listen to music and just hangout. It was a very memorable day for sure, some last moments with my closest friends.” added Ming.
