Graduation Week: Moving On

By Jonathon Kraft

As the year winds down, so do the seniors. The 2011 graduates have a lot to look forward to in the coming week. Monday is their last day of school, and they were presented with a spirit day to celebrate their departure. The seniors’ finals fall on Tuesday and Wednesday, May 23 and 24.  As students prepare for this final test of their knowledge, senior Terese Dlobik says “studying for finals is tough, but the end product will pay off.”

           

Dlobik, along with her classmates, will embark on the first step to graduation with the Baccalaureate mass. The mass will honor the graduating seniors. Many seniors are looking forward to this, which marks the end of finals and the beginning of their graduation activities.

           

Many seniors are also looking forward to the graduation ceremony. Senior Bailey Dillon can't wait to get home and get that graduation gown hung in the closet at the end. The feeling may be mutual throughout the class, but they all look forward to ending a chapter in their lives and beginning a new process of higher learning.

           

Even though they will all be leaving the Newman Catholic School doors for the final time, the thoughts and memories of teachers and friends will stay with them throughout the years.
