Remembering
the great
W
of the past four years
ith a surely memorable senior year, Class of 2020 closes out their fours years of high school. Friday night lights and club meetings. 7 a.m. arrival times and passing periods. Pep rallies and spirit days. Pop quizes and sports banquets. It all comes to an end as we say good bye to this huge part of our lives. Even though it is not the ending anyone wanted or even anticipated, it is still our moment and our memories. The ending may not have been ideal, but that doesn’t take away from all of the excitement, all of the significance, and all of the greatness. We look back on the memories. We reflect on how high school shaped who we are. We cringe at our freshmen selves. We thank peers, teachers, and faculty for helping us get through it all. We also look forward to the future. We plan where to go next. We eagerly await what life has in store for us. We anticipate greatness. Tomorrow, we will conclude our senior year online and anticipate our virtual graduation. We look forward to finishing high school, together as Class of 2020.

“Winning boys basketball Sectionals my junior year and being able to cut the net.” - Alayna Eismin senior “I loved the pep rallies. Although some people leave early because they’re ‘boring,’ I think they’re kind of fun. You get to sit with your friends and relax and laugh for an hour or so.” - Jessica Geary senior “I enjoyed performing in the pit orchestra for almost every musical in my four years here at MHS.” - Nikolai Hoogewerf senior “The Oscars party we had after finishing our AP Lit film projects junior year—they were so much work but it was fun to get dressed up, hand out awards, and celebrate.” - Anya Fitzpatrick senior “Winning the Girls’ Basketball Sectional this year and the amazing student section we had.” - Emily Zabrecky senior “The time I microwaved 40 pizza rolls during lunch and a girl was obviously angry but didn’t dare say anything because everybody else in the line thought it was funny.” - Timothy Kaufman senior “Dogpiling on Noel Fary after he won the musical chairs at the last pep rally of senior year.” - Paul Katona senior “The boys’ swim team winning State Runner-Up this year. The first time in 10 years. This was the best way to end my senior year as a four year varsity swimmer.” - Grant Afman senior “Early volleyball tournaments showing up to the school wrapped in blankets with bagels.” - Sydney Foster senior “One of my favorite memories is having Alayna Eismin ask me to Turnabout in front of everyone at the pep rally.” - Roman Garcia senior “Traveling to New York with the MHS Chorale to sing at Carnegie Hall was one of my favorite moments in high school. Meeting Eric Whitacre is something I will never forget.” - Ariel Velasco senior “Finally graduating.” - Dharma Niles senior
