Mid-Winter Recess


Senior trip is probably something of the past now, but who says you can't still have fun during your mid-winter recess.

Scholarships-  Get started, or finished up on scholarship applications for college. Top 5 websites for scholarships are:
1.     Scholarships
2.     Cappex
3.     Zinch
4.     Fast Web

Ice-skating – Gather up your friends and go ice-skating. Ice-skating is described as a “winter” sport but you can honestly do it all year round in arenas. Ice-skating is a lot of fun and it also burns 250 calories per hour, for those of you who are trying to burn some calories here and there.

Volunteer- You can take the time out to volunteer at a shelter, it will help with your community service hours for those of you who may need some service hours to graduate. There are many shelters that look for volunteers this time of the year.

Zoo, Aquarium or Museum? – Take the time to explore one of these places, the zoo, aquarium and museums always have 
student discounts and it could possibly be free, you can learn a lot of new things from visiting a museum and have pictures of cute and creepy animals from the zoo and aquarium.


Movie Night – Host a movie night, senior trip has probably occurred already and there is not much time left. Hosting a movie night gives you more time to spend in the company of your best friends who may be going away for college.
