Senior Picnic of ‘23

Seniors attend final gathering on may 5

Seniors were once again treated this year to a Senior Picnic. Taking place Friday, May 5th at Vetta Sports, seniors paid a small $15 fee and were welcomed to participate in sports activities and complimentary lunch. The food provided was pizza, ice cream from Culvers, chips, cookies and more! This annual event saw over 300 seniors participating this year, with the main attraction being the yearbook signing.

Dr Fick, Senior Principal, elaborated more on the purpose of the event. “Students can get their yearbooks and write notes to each other to help them remember their senior year. It’s a great wrap-up to the year.”

Seniors were given the opportunity to get their yearbooks earlier than the rest of the school, and were encouraged to do yearbook signing at the event. Mrs. Rapp, the yearbook advisor, and the yearbook students spent the entire event giving out yearbooks to those coming in. Needless to say, the seniors being in one place made for a convenient year-book signing.

“It is a time when the school gives up some of its time for seniors to have the opportunity to come together as a class,” Fick commented on the importance of the event.

As seen every year, the seniors were given one last opportunity to get together as a class. Getting away from school, they could discuss their plans for their future after high school as they ate lunch together. Regardless if the students chose to leave for college or not, they got to say goodbye to people they’ve known for years.

“I’m going to miss seeing my friends everyday in all the classes I have with them.”
