McIntosh Trail Online - McIntosh High School - Back to school stress overwhelms - 0 views
-
The infamous school year stress has already begun by the first day of school. On day one of our 180 day school year, book projects are due, and tests are waiting to be taken. Let the all-nighters and the pressure to not fail begin. Is this any comparison to the serenity of being on a beach? . . . Nowhere close.

I find this article newsworthy because it applies to me, and I feel and think many of the things that the article describes as a student. The article contains importance/impact, timeliness, and proximity. The article is important because it applies to the majority of high school students, which is a large chunk of our population. The topic it explains, excessive stress due to large loads of schoolwork, is something experienced by all of our as adolescents, and which can greatly impact our futures. The story is timely because for students, summer has just ended and given way to a new school year. While the school discussed is in the Fayette County School system, it applies to all high schools, across the nation, including my own.
