enter Grove High School’s Class of 2022 has spent half of their high school careers dealing with COVID-19. This experience has given them and all of us a better appreciation for big events and seeing the smiles of our friends and families. We are fortunate to have removed restrictions in time for these seniors to enjoy the traditional senior festivities and milestone events. My hope for these graduates (and all of us) is that they will never again have to face a pandemic. I wish every senior the very best as they start the next chapters in their lives. Sincerely, Richard A. Arkanoff, Ed.D. Superintendent

I WISH EVERY SENIOR THE VERY BEST AS THEY START THE NEXT CHAPTERS IN THEIR LIVES.

he 2020-2021 school year saw a return to a more “normal” school year after two year of constant challenges and changes that resulted in a variety of instructional delivery modalities. While portions of the year were spent in mandatory masks, ensuring strict quarantine protocols, we ended the year under much better circumstances, and were able to maintain 100% in-person attendance for the entire school year. While we started the year with some masking requirements and attendance limits in place for our athletic, extra-curricular, and co-curricular events, we were able to return to full capacity as the year progressed. We were also able to return to having Prom in our usual venue at Crane Bay. It was great to see so many of you enjoying one of our traditional events again this year. You are a remarkable class of graduates with brilliant minds, compassionate hearts, and unlimited potential to make a difference in the world. You have shown resilience and positivity in a time of crisis during your high school career, and the acts of kindness I have seen you involved in inspire me. I am confident that, through all of the disruptions you have endured during your high school career, you have gained skills in flexibility and perseverance that will benefit you, both personally and professionally, as you accomplish your goals and aspirations in the future. I wish you success, good health, and happiness as you graduate from Center Grove High School. I hope you will stay in touch with us and let us know how you are doing in future years. Remember to respect and care for yourself, respect and care for others, and remember… It’s Great to be a Trojan! Your Partner in Education, Jeffry M. Henderson, Ed.D. Principal

REMEMBER TO RESPECT AND CARE FOR YOURSELF, RESPECT AND CARE FOR OTHERS, AND REMEMBER… IT’S GREAT TO BE A TROJAN!
