Senior Farewell
As I look back over my high school experience, I am amazed by the growth and challenges that came my way. There is so much that I wish I’d known (and understood) when I started middle school and high school. While I can’t go back in time to give myself advice, I can advise the grades below me.

SGA Varsity Softball
