US kids - what month do you finish your penultimate year of high school? June or July?

Also, what when do you start sending applications to colleges?

haha, truth be told, seniors in their second and final semester do NOTHING.

my school ends seniors six weeks early and idk what they even do then, but they have to have a three week internship doing SOMETHING, and then there's grad bash sometime in the middle of that and graduation. beyond that, i've never seent hem do anything at all during that last semester.

I know! ^-^ mostly senior's will leave after their one class, because we have a system where we have to get a certain amount of credits in our four years to graduate. so we have four classes a semester, and two semesters, but some classes are half a credit and some are two semesters for one credit like Alegebra A and B. it's just all screwed up. We have internships for juniors second semester and up, but you have to keep your grades really high and you have to have a liscence and you CAN'T skip class. mostly people without discipline referrals (or a certain amount of them) are only signed to do internships though.
