Our Seniors
As the calendar flips to May, I’m thinking a lot about our seniors and everything they have brought to this community. We started together – they and I – in the height of the pandemic. Smiling behind masks and sitting six feet apart, they forged friendships that will last well beyond their time at bbin娱乐平台. They supported one another through the loss of a beloved teacher whom many of them carry in their hearts. The teams they played on brought trophies and, much more importantly, brought us all together. As seniors, they have made it their mission to deepen that community spirit. Part of their legacy will be a new tradition they, along with younger peers on Student Council, lovingly named the Federal Bureau of Intrepids (FBI) – a yearlong competition involving all students across the four grades; students are assigned to one of eight color teams, which vie for points in all kinds of contests. Several of our all-school meetings have been given over to FBI shenanigans and have been highpoints of the year. I hope that when the Class of 2024 comes back for its tenth reunion the FBI is still going strong. Our seniors are leaving bbin娱乐平台 so much better than they found it. I’m looking forward to the many chances we’ll have in the next several weeks to celebrate them. And I’m starting to miss them already.
