The Dazzlings smiled as they walked into the school, it was their last day of their Freshman year. The last day of school, a day that all kids loved. Just one more day, just a few more hours and they would be out for the summer and not have to come back to school for a few months. As the Dazzlings headed their way to their classes they couldn't help but wonder what they would be doing on the last day of school. 

When the girls got to their first class they wondered what they would be doing. They had finished all of their finals and their teachers had already let them know that they wouldn't be giving out homework for the rest of the year. And, they knew none of the teachers wanted to be that teacher and give homework on the last day of school or even worse, summer homework. The Dazzlings watched as their teachers walked up to the front of the class with a smile on their faces. 

"As this is the last day of school, we're free to do whatever you please. We'll be watching a movie for our last class of the year." The Dazzlings smiled as their teachers started up the movie and kids began talking or playing games with their friends.





It was currently lunchtime and the girls were just halfway done with their day. So far the first three classes had been nothing but fun and good times. All their classes so far they had been watching movies or hanging out with their first to waste the time, they only hoped that the rest of their three classes would be the same and they would finish off their day with some fun. 

As they ate with their friends for one last time, Aria couldn't help but stare at Dawnshine. Things hadn't changed between the two of them for the rest of the year but after their little fight earlier, they were told to stay away from each other and if they couldn't do that they would be given detention for a week. Celestia had let them know if they even dared think about getting into another fight they might get expelled. But that didn't mean that Dawnshine and Aria had to be friends, no, the two still hated each other, well, Dawnshine hated all three of them. If they were to walk past each other in the halls the two would stare each other down, but they weren't about to get in trouble again so they stayed their distance. 

Adagio and Sonata could only sigh at their sister, they knew she hated Dawnshine but it was the last day of school, she could at least take a break for a day. The two could only keep reminding Aria that once the day was over she wouldn't see Dawnshine for a few months, which would make her feel a bit better. The bell then rang signaling the end of lunch, as kids got up and threw away their trash, the girls made their way to their fourth period. 





Sixth period, the last period of the day, and the last day of school would be over. The Dazzlings had said goodbye to their previous teachers and classmates, and now, they were one step closer to being finished with their last day of school. They had been known that they would be given a letter in sixth period on whether or not they passed their finals and if they would advance from Freshmen or have to, unfortunately, redo the year. After hearing that, the girls could only hope all that studying they did was enough and that they had passed their finals.

During class, the kids cleaned out their lockers for the next class of next year. After they had done that the teacher had come back and started passing out the letters to all the students. Everyone watched as one by one she gave the letters to the kids as they would then hope that they did well before opening up their letter. The Dazzlings watched along with their friends as the teacher slowly but surely walked up to them last and gave the girls their letters. 

The Dazzlings held the letters in their hands before looking at one another. "Well... let's open these things, shall we?" Aria and Sonata nodded their heads as the three girls ripped open the envelope and started reading their letters. 

As the girls read their grades they couldn't help but smile. Aria's grades were; Math - B+, Science - A+, History - A+, English - A-, P.E. - A+, and Spanish - A+. Adagio's grades were perfect all A+'s with Science, Math, History, English, Spanish, and P.E. She was a bit surprised that she had an A in P.E. but at the same time, she didn't want to fail P.E. and do it all over again. Sonata was probably the most happy as she did better than she thought. Sonata's grades were; Math - B-, History - A+, English - A+, Spanish - A+, Science - A+, and P.E - A+. 

The Dazzlings then looked at one another with big smiles as they looked at all their friends who shared the same expression as them. "WE DID IT!" The girls cheered as they all smiled and hugged one another. After an amazing first year of high school and after all the studying they had done, they had passed their finals and classes with great results. Just then the bell rang, signaling the end of the day, and the end of their first year of high school. 

As the girls made their way out of the school, they said goodbye to their friends one last time and headed out to their mom's car. Sunset smiled at them once they got into the car and had big smiles on their faces. "Hi, girls! How was your last day of school?"

The Dazzlings smiled as they all told Sunset about their days and their grades on their finals. To say Sunset was proud would be an understatement, she was beyond belief and happy that the Dazzlings had done so well in their classes. But she wasn't surprised, they had all worked hard and put in a lot of time and studying to do the best that they could to get the grades they wanted. They had passed with very good grades and Sunset couldn't be more proud of them. 

The three girls smiled as they continued driving away from the school and back home. They hadn't thought about it until now they were out of school, but now that school was over, what would they be doing in their time? Sure, they were happy that school was over, but they were also sad. The girls looked out of the windows with mixed emotions, even though they had just gotten out of school, they were already missing it. But next year they would no longer be Freshmen, they would be Sophomore and they couldn't wait.
