By Mevlad Delic and Luca Ianucci The final countdown for seniors this year is filled with navigating college application, trade school requirements, and memories. Sometimes, there are people that say senior year is easy and you do nothing. All past graduating classes have only talked about how fun senior year is and how fast the days go by, but in reality it’s been boring, stressful, and long for some seniors. For the Wethersfield High School Class of 2026, we personally have found senior year easy in the aspect of work that we are getting. There is definitely less homework and less classwork compared to junior year. At times though, it has been difficult and stressful. Doing college applications, college essays, scholarships, and getting everything ready for life after high school are all the difficult and stressful things we found these first few months. Also we found ourselves thinking about the memories made throughout high school. That is because knowing you will not be in high school next year is a crazy thought. Wethersfield High School senior Ajdin Huzejrovic, who is planning on going into a trade said,“ Senior year has been pretty easy and I have found it pretty good. I’m going to trade school for HVAC.” He went on to say, “ Senior year hasn’t been my easiest year, but has been easier than freshman and junior year. I found getting prepared for life after high school pretty difficult this year because of how much there is to do to get ready for trade school.” But not every student is having the same experience in their last year.For some seniors, college athletic recruiters make a big difference in their experience. Senior Ramo Ahmetovic, who plans to play soccer in college said, “Senior year is going great, soccer is also going great and I have a lot of colleges that are interested in me. The hardest part school wise about senior year is staying on task with all these exciting events coming up and am ready to graduate.” He went on to say this about the experience of being recruited, “What I found the hardest thing about being recruited is that I have so many options it is hard to find the best school that fits my desires.” Ahmetovic has a range of schools from high division 1 schools to high division 2 schools to attend, study, and play soccer.
