The school year is almost over, and summer is just around the corner. For many students, that means trading school stress for beach days, road trips, or some much-needed sleep. Some are traveling, getting summer jobs, or staying home with family. I’m heading to Mexico to spend time with my family and friends—but here’s how others are spending their summer 2025.
