Why did Senioritis start so early

My 17-year-old daughter, a senior, just received her first ever referral for being late to class, disrupting the class, and talking to a classmate while the teacher was talking—even after being warned. She still has an A in the class, but wow… senioritis is real. 😅
I thought seniors will start acting up in April or May.... |

| My senior is also having senioritis. Mid-March sounds about right. They are just so done with all of it. |

| HAH, majority of my seniors have had it since winter break. If i wrote up all the "talking while i'm talking" kids, it would be 2/3 of my senior classes some days. These are AP students. |

| FCPS doesn’t take kids being in class seriously, why should she? |

| Come on, the kid has worked hard for years, they've been accepted to college, has an A and you're mad she was late for class? It. Doesn't. Matter. |

Does the rudeness matter? |

| March is not early. You are lucky this is the first time she was late for class. Some got senioritis in August and some got before senior year even started. -HS teacher |

Disrupting class and talking while others are trying to learn does matter. |

| I think early action and early decision contribute to this. They apply so much earlier than kids used to and know they are accepted. Senior year grades feel like they don’t count and kids start shifting over to that mentality earlier in the year. Then it spirals from there and you add in crazy weather on top of it. |

+1 way too much pressure on kids nowadays for college. They are just done by senior year. |
