Polly's Senior Year at Boarding School by Dorothy Whitehill's

Polly's Senior Year at Boarding School by Dorothy Whitehill is a captivating narrative that follows Polly Pendleton and her close friend Lois Farwell as they embark on their final year at Seddon Hall. The story begins with the girls returning to school, excited yet apprehensive about the responsibilities and privileges that come with being seniors. The narrative explores their interactions with new students, particularly Fanny Gerard, a Southern girl with a penchant for sentimentality and a collection of letters from admirers. Polly and her friends initially find Fanny's romantic notions amusing but soon realize the importance of understanding and supporting their peers. As the year progresses, Polly is elected captain of the basketball team, a position she has long aspired to. Her adaptation is tested as she navigates team dynamics and the expectations of her peers. Meanwhile, Lois struggles with her role as senior class president, often distracted by her passion for art and her growing friendship with the new art teacher, Miss Crosby. Polly, ever the supportive friend, steps in to help Lois manage her responsibilities, demonstrating the strength of their friendship. The story also delves into the personal lives of the characters, highlighting Polly's close relationship with Lois's brother, Bob Farwell, who faces his own challenges after a sports injury. The narrative is rich with themes of friendship, change, and personal growth, as Polly and her friends learn to balance their academic and personal lives while preparing for the future.
