Change

Yikes! It's probably due time that I posted my last Phenology blog post. It's interesting how so much changes over the course of a year, especially if you are student. There is no explanation to the crazy amounts of drama, homework, and of course fashion statements that are forever involved with going to high school. Senior High is no exception to this of course and I have gone through my fair share of questionable attire.

However, there is something about Senior High that makes it unique in it's own way. Connected to it's walkways is a little place called Pioneer Park. There is something stable about knowing the presence of the outdoors not to far from the cramped, noisy hallways. It doesn't graduate or decide to change it's whole outfit. It's a part of our school and it was so nice this year to actually get involved with what's really there. Phenology was a great way not only get outside but it brought our learning to a testing ground. It was remarkable to see the vast changes that my area went through from the fall, (including having a muskrat move in!), but it has been reassuring to see it go back to green fluffy grass and an overflowing creek.

Overall, change doesn't have to be a bad thing. It's kinda scary to go through so much in such short four years, and that can be a bit overwhelming at times. Having a place where students can breathe fresh air and just learn about the outdoors was just the right tool to help bare the craziness of high school.
