Earth Month at Morrow High School: Growing a Greener Future
April is recognized as Earth Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about environmental protection and encouraging people to take action to care for our planet. At Morrow High School, Earth Month is more than just a celebration, it’s a movement that empowers students to become responsible, and environmentally conscious citizens.
This year, Morrow High is proudly celebrating Earth Month by promoting recycling initiatives and encouraging students to start and maintain community gardens. These efforts not only beautify the school and surrounding community but also teach valuable lessons about sustainability, teamwork, and responsibility.
How Morrow High School is Celebrating

-
Recycling Campaigns: Students are encouraged to recycle paper, plastic, and aluminum throughout the campus. Clearly labeled bins are placed in classrooms and common areas to make recycling easy and accessible.

What's Next!
by Chris G.
Students are nervous and ready to get this part of their lives over. Choosing a school is much more than saying yes or no it is a major life decision that can change your life and determine our success.
For many seniors, this season brings excitement and at times nervousness. Acceptance letters, financial aid packages, and deadlines are all grabbing at us at once.
Some students already know exactly where they want to go, while others are still trying to figure it out.
Choosing a college, university, or career path is not just about the name of the school, it’s about finding the right fit.
Students must consider factors like academic programs, campus environment, location, cost, and opportunities for growth. It’s also important to think about personal goals and what kind of experience we want to have over the next few years.
Beyond academics, this decision represents a major life transition. For many, it means leaving home, meeting new people, and stepping into independence for the first time. That can be both exciting and intimidating. Questions like “Will I succeed?”, “Will I fit in?”, and “Am I making the right choice?” are completely normal.
During this time, it’s imperative for students to take a step back and reflect. Talk to family, teachers, and counselors. Visit campuses if possible. Ask questions. Most importantly, trust yourself. There is no “one perfect path”—success can come from many different directions.
As graduation approaches, one thing is certain, this is just the beginning. Whether students choose college, trade school, the military, or entering the workforce, each path offers opportunities for growth and achievement.
The future may feel uncertain, but it is also full of possibilities. What matters most is making a decision that aligns with your goals, values, and dreams.
So, what’s next?
Whatever it is.......own it, embrace it, and make it yours.
