I, Hailie New, being in intellectual mind and sound body, do hereby bequeath the following memories to my friends of the class of 2022 and class of 2023: Always playing around in the gym and almost getting stuck inside the mats, escaping everyone and hiding on top of the mats, and even rolling each other inside the mats. Using gym class to sleep or catch up on our work that we

When we were freshmen we booed ourselves during the lip-sync battle because we knew we sucked, but eventually won as seniors, finally. The fun times in biology dissecting frogs, and getting carried away (M) and even sticking candy to our face and throwing it to see who could get it to stick. Or maybe that time when the upper class were hitting each other with a ruler wrapped in electrical tape and when one fell to the ground in pain, and when the sub asked what happened they said they had a leg cramp and we all started laughing.

Maybe we did not get all of the high school experience that we could have, and maybe it feels like only yesterday we were freshmen. The main memories from my senior year include health science class
joking around about anything and everything with my 9th grade friends making it one of my favorite classes this year. Having to act out scenes in English even though none of us knew what we were doing and we always would get distracted and mess up. Our last high school memory will be us walking across the stage, in front of hundreds of people, and having our diploma in our hands, all the hard work paying off. Now till the day where we throw our caps in the air, for future classes and teachers, goodbye from me and the class of 2022. I, Angelina Hughes, being in the peace of mind and able bodied, do hereby bequeath the following to Betzy: I’ll need someone to keep my seat warm while I’m gone so I bestow upon you the privilege to have my place at the senior lunch table; Angel: I give you the endurance to face foes with a smile on your face and the peace of mind to remember you are loved and always will be loved; Haylee: I give you back all the hugs you gave me, so if you feel
