Spring break-a time to relax for LHS students

Mayo — Lafayette County Schools will be closed for spring break from March 25-29.

A few of the students at Lafayette High School offered to share their plans for this welcome time away from the books in order to enjoy the milder temperatures of springtime and just plain relax.

Eleventh grader Lydia Land said, “I’m probably going to go to the beach for a couple days in Jacksonville because my uncle lives there. I’ll probably have softball practice a few days. We don’t have any games that week. Some of my friends are talking about going to the lake. It’s on Cherry Lake (in Madison) and we wakeboard and stuff.”

Senior Ellen Lashley said part of her spring break plans are to help her dad babysit her little brother, while the rest of the family is with her younger sister on her 8th grade trip.

“We’re probably going to have softball practice and lay out and go swimming and stuff,” Lashley said.

Emily Fredriksson is an 11th grader. She said, “I don’t have very many plans for spring break. I’ll probably just stay at the house, lay out, and start working on majorette routines.”

Fredriksson also said she might visit family.

Another 11th grader Darby Guyton said, “I guess I’m going to stay home and go swimming, and stay with my aunt some and maybe go to the lake.”

Eighth grader Chance Simpkins, who said he wasn’t big on smiling for the camera, said he’d probably spend his spring break working on the farm with his uncle. He also said he might go mud bogging.

When asked what was on the farm, Simpkins said, “A lot of cows.”
