Abstract
Even now, I have vivid memories of my last day of high school. Do you? In my mind's eye, I'm cleaning out my locker, then staring at the emptiness for a few extra beats before slamming it shut for the last time. I'm roaming the halls with my best friend, blissfully ignoring the bells going off every 50 minutes on schedule because, just today, we're allowed to break the rules. I'm sitting on my desk, swinging my feet, and shooting the breeze with my English teacher Mr. Carr in a way that makes me feel almost grown up. It's maybe my favorite day of the whole year. And like the final layer of watercolor, the freedom and lightness I feel seeps into the rest of my memories of that day and turns them just a shade rosier. If the school year hasn't yet ended for your kids, consider what you can do to make the finale count. Why?
