She says there is a lot of pressure put on students, particularly because of standardized tests. The soul needs to refresh itself before it returns to the arduous demands of the following school year. I know for myself I need to travel and read what I want to.

Summer break is a chance to take a break from school and have some fun.
OK, so the beach is a hot topic this summer. But other teens are just happy to get a break from school. I usually go out of town and hang out with friends. The main reason why summer means so much to me, is because I can get away from things that I can't get away from during school. Summer break is important to me because it's my time to release all the stress and tension I receive during school.
