A majority of seniors are taking these words to heart and will be leav¬ ing home after graduation. Whether it’s to join the military, go to school or simply to broaden their horizons, many seniors feel a move would be more beneificial than staying in Low¬ ell. Leaving home is not as simple as it sounds. Reality hits home when the responsibilities of laundry, cooking and budgeting must be met. Things mom used to take care of can’t be taken advantage of anymore. When seniors leave home, where do they go? Besides moving away to col¬ lege or enlisting in the service, there are those who plan to leave the state entirely for work or for just a change of scenery. Places like Tennessee, Texas and California seem to attract most seniors. “ There isn’t any kind of future for me here.” Matt Wakefield “I would like to move to Florida. I love the weather and there are jobs available,” said Colleen Smutniak. Besides home cooking, what will seniors miss when they leave? Most seniors listed friends and family as their top choices. Some also said they would miss the “country life” of Low¬ ell. Despite the overwhelming interest in going away, there are those like Michelle Shryock who plan to stay here in Lowell. “If I stay home, I can work and be with my family and my boyfriend.” So, for every senior who goes away, there is another who can’t let go of “home”. 16 Seniors
