As the school year comes closer to its end and summer draws near, students at Notre Dame itch to finish their classes and enjoy their three-month break. Spring sports, the spring musical and several other activities help keep the students busy and their minds off the few days of school left.

The baseball team, with a record of 10 wins and 1 loss, continues to play well, and players look forward to a success for rest of the season and post-season. Although the softball team has not been as lucky, having not yet won a game, those players continue to work together as a team with hopes for success in later games.

The track and field and tennis teams also compete with tremendous spirit and accomplish some of their goals this season. Junior Julie Romich broke the school's high jump record with a jump of 5'6".

Students also attended the Future Business Leaders of America's State Leadership Conference. Senior Zachary Hogan and junior Abigail Marone both earned a first place in Business Ethics and now move onto the FBLA National Conference. They will be the first representatives for Notre Dame at the national level.

The production of "Sweeney Todd," a dark and twisted musical, drew to a close with many cheers of admiration from those who attended it. Patrick Davis, a junior, played the role of Sweeney Todd while senior Alexandra Séman played Mrs. Lovett. Every student who contributed to the outstanding play now waits anxiously for Freddy nominations to be announced, hoping for the same level of recognition as the last few years.

Now that the fourth quarter begins, only allowing for five short weeks for the senior class, every student hopes to make the best of their final days until summer break begins. Seniors are excited to begin a new chapter of their lives, but they do not wish to leave each other. On the other hand, the freshman cannot wait until they are no longer the youngest in the school.
