Senioritis is described as a lack of motivation during a students final year of high school. Though it has been debated, many students in their senior year have claimed to experience this ‘disease.’

Seniors have claimed to have experienced a decline in motivation which has called for a decline in their performance and attendance.  But the question remains, is senioritis real?

I believe that senioritis is definitely real and has affected most seniors at least once.  Everyone has experienced a lack of motivation at one point and I believe that being a senior makes the decline in performance more rapid.

I, as a junior, have experienced a type of ‘second-hand’ senioritis while approaching the end of this school year and believe that I, too, will catch ‘senioritis’.
