My favorite high school memory was definitely all of the homecoming weeks. Yearly, I have loved dressing up in wacky costumes that make the other students laugh. I also adored making decorations and staying up for ungodly hours just to make the hallways look good. AND ALSO HOW WE NEVER HAD AIR CONDITIONING IN OUR HALL!!!
P.S. I hope to work in the business side of theme parks like Disney or Universal!

My favorite high school memory is hanging out with my friends at lunch or before school in the mornings. We would always catch up on things with each other or share things about our day.

My favorite high school memory was all the volunteer work we did through Unicef. Unicef was such a fun club to be in and the officer meetings were always eventful!
Next year I will be attending UCF! I will be majoring in Biomedical Sciences with a minor in Psychology. The plan is to go onto medical school and become an infectious disease specialist! However, I have a passion for psychology and might end up in the psych field instead!

Major: Biochemistry with a minor in Chemical Engineering then on to medical school to become a cardiothoracic surgeon. My favorite memory in high school is most definitely my first Dance Marathon. It happened to fall on my 16th birthday and I was skeptical about spending the day at school. However, I decided to go and had the absolute best day full of laughter, tears, dancing, and a birthday serenade from the whole school. To top it all off, we raised $91,141.57! P.S. I’m a first generation college student, so I’m proud to start a new tradition in my family.

My favorite high school memory was having lunch with my friends. Every day I got to spend 45 minutes eating, joking, and just hanging out with my friends. I never really realized how special and precious those moments were until I no longer had them. So I would definitely say that lunch is my favorite high school memory because it brings me the most joy when I think about school-related memories.

My favorite high school memory was being at the Fort Lauderdale airport with the entire schoolband on our way to a music festival in Indianapolis when the coronavirus was declared a global pandemic.

My most memorable high school experience was probably playing lacrosse considering it took up a majority of my time here, despite not playing this season, I did and still do love the sport itself, and it kinda raised me for three years.
P.S. As soon as we graduate, Christy and I are going to Greenland to pursue our careers in ice-fishing!

Out of all four years, I would have to say my favorite high school memory is when I fell going up the stairs on the bus my sophomore year. This memory is my favorite because not only did I fall while the bus was full, completely embarrassing myself in front of everyone, but the bus driver laughed so hard at me that he snorted. I stopped taking the bus after that but it was really funny. By far my favorite and most traumatizing high school memory.

My favorite high school memory was going to every pep rally with my best friends. We always
have so much fun by getting involved in all the activities. Getting dressed in the spirit, and putting on face makeup. Another one of my favorite memories is going to the homecoming dances and enjoying myself and my friends company.
