This week, our graduating seniors participated in the "Senior Strut," where they returned to their former elementary schools: Neidig, QE, Pfaff, Richland, and Trumbauersville to walk the hallways and see former teachers.
Seniors were welcomed with cheers, high-fives, and smiles from current students celebrating their upcoming graduation. For some seniors, the day was especially meaningful as they reunited with younger siblings currently attending their former schools. A few even celebrated the occasion with a piggyback ride through the hallways.
These visits provided a wonderful opportunity to reflect on how far our seniors have come and to inspire our youngest learners as they continue their own educational journeys. Congratulations to the Class of 2026!
