Don't rush your Senior year! I was so excited for Senior year to start so that I could be done with high school. When my last year ended abruptly due to Covid-19 I realized that I wasn't ready for it to be over. I yearned to walk down the halls one last time.
So, enjoy your last year in high schoo (1) ·

A slide show of some of the topics I went through in the TulsaTech class "Cyber security and forensics."

I chose my senior capstone to be about photography and my progression within that. I’ve picked up technical shooting skills and am building a portfolio.

After deciding not to write the book, I felt more comfortable and natural making my capstone with a piano rather than a pencil. I started spending hours at the piano at home. Those three simple notes that gave me the idea for my song were being explored in all different ways I wanted it to go. Nothi (1) ·

Early childhood education is often overlooked as an easy babysitting job when in reality it's far from it.
