Senioritis is a term used to describe the feeling of apathy and lack of motivation that some high school seniors experience during their final year. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including the stress of college applications, the excitement of graduation, and the feeling that one has already “done” high school.
While senioritis is a common experience, it can have a negative impact on a student’s academic performance. Students who are struggling with senioritis may find it difficult to focus in class, complete their assignments, and study for exams. This can lead to lower grades and a less successful transition to college.
