Back to School Study Playlist!

Welcome to the Back To School Playlist! Now that everyone has more or less recovered from the post-summer-vacation laziness, here’s a study playlist to further help ease you all back into the world of rigorous classes and homework. Please feel free to leave recommendations and requests by commenting down below.

Starting from this semester, I will be taking over the playlist section of The Beacon, so if you have any recommendations for future playlists or would like me to feature your own personal playlist, leave a comment down below or contact me at 07youngm@aisgz.org

Feel free to follow The Beacon and any playlists you like on Spotify! Stay tuned for future playlists and for some superb recommendations. Enjoy!
