As winter break approaches, students prepare for vacations, hosting family, or relaxing at home, and this year is no exception. In addition to a break from school, several major holidays are celebrated including Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, and New Year. From going on cruises to making baked goods and ginger bread houses, this is what Woodgrove students are doing for their winter break.

What Wolverines Are Doing Over Winter Break

Freshman Abby Browning

“I will probably sleep, take care of my dogs and celebrate Christmas.”
Senior Marlena McKim

“During winter break, I always look forward to reading by the fire with my mom. Overall, I love spending time with my family and doing fun things like baking or watching movies. It’s just a time for me to relax and enjoy the time I have with them before I leave for college.”
Junior Patrick Lyons

“During the holidays, I prefer to undertake various leisure activities such as skiing, crafting gingerbread houses, and not doing calculus.”
Sophomore Lorelei Hurts Major

“I’ll just be enjoying Christmas at home with my family.”
Sophomore Bella Towe

“I’ll be going to Florida and seeing family.”
Senior McKenzie Sullivan

“I’m going on a cruise to the Caribbean and then I am spending the rest of the break with my grandparents who are visiting from Bolivia.”
Freshman Stasa Merkel

“Over break, I’m going to be practicing some drawing techniques and playing with my cats. I’m going to spend a lot of time with my family. They are also coming over for dinner. After Christmas, I’m going to be spending time relaxing with my family and with my uncle who is coming over from Italy.”
