We have 3 Seniors this year. One in electrical, one in programming, and one in awards. This is vastly different from last year when 17 Seniors graduated.
It is always amazing to me how the Seniors take on the responsibility of leaving the team better than they found it and worrying about the next year when they will be gone. One of the Seniors sat down with me during the early part of build season and we spent 2.5 hours talking about bridging some of the gaps and strengthening areas that were weak in our team. I have always been impressed with her quiet steady-as-she-goes approach to getting things done. She later was selected by her teammates as one of the Dean's List nominees from our team. It's been a privilege and an honor to watch her and the other 2 Seniors grow, develop, and prepare for their futures beyond high school. Where has the time gone?
