Class of 2026 will be walking the stage in May. They have been at a desk for at least 12 years now putting in the hard work, sweat and tears. Finally it will all be over. 

Freshman year, where to start, everyone came in a little nervous not knowing what to expect. Should we be excited? Nervous? Scared? No one knew but just that we had to show up to school or we wouldn’t be able to graduate. That date felt so far away and when Senior year hit all of a sudden it was right around the corner. When our last year started, that is when we realized how much time had gone by, we weren’t little Freshmen walking the halls staring at Seniors wishing that was us. All the dances and games we had experienced and the memories made are now really going to be just memories. All the Seniors walking that stage to graduate are going out into the world not knowing what is coming next. It is the feeling of excitement and being a little scared. When we walk that stage there’s no going back and we don’t need to because we’re prepared for what’s to come. 

The class of 2026 is going to be great when we graduate, if anything we are the most prepared class. All of us have faced so many challenges that have already prepared us for what is to come further down the road.
