With junior year coming to an end, the realization has started to set in. I will soon be experiencing all of my last moments – my last summer, my last first day, my last basketball game, my last Echoes, my last prom and then will come my last day of high school. The question we start to ask ourselves now is ‘am I really ready for all of this?’ Am I ready to begin the next chapter of my life?
I try to remember to hold onto the little things and enjoy it while it’s still here, to not wish it away so fast because now it’s almost gone. It’s scary, but this is what the last 13 years have been preparing me for and now my final year has come.
The class 2025 will be one to remember because of the contributions we have made on the field, the court, and the classrooms. We are a group with diverse interests but all connected by WHS. Now it is time to step up as leaders which is what many of us have had to do this past year. We as a class know how to have Wildcat pride and support our school. Senior privilege isn’t given out, it must be earned and our class knows how to earn it.
When we were freshmen we didn’t worry much because we still had three years. To a freshman that feels like a long time but now we have one year.
We don’t have time to undo past mistakes, we can only move forward with a positive attitude and make the most of our last year. We need to make the most of our last moments together – go to the games, support each other, attend dances, come to school! If you aren’t here we can’t share the experiences. Everyone wants to make money but we have the rest of our lives to work. While we are still in high school we need to make the most of it.
