Students are taking advantage of the three-day weekend in many ways including to rest or focus on schoolwork and extracurricular projects.

Students on campus have the chance to enjoy a three-day weekend starting Friday.

 For junior Rupal Shirpurkar, this is an exciting opportunity to unwind before school starts up again. 

“I’m super excited for this three-day weekend,” junior Rupal Shirpurkar said. “School has been so stressful and overwhelming lately so I just need this time to relax. I think I’m mostly just going to hang out with my friends and family and get some good sleep.” 

Junior Ayush Dane’s weekend looks a bit different as he is focusing his break on academics. 

“This weekend, I am mostly just catching up on school work,” Dane said. “I have some tests here and there that I have to study for and a DECA project I have to finish up so this weekend will be focused mostly on that.”
