What's New at School?

DAYTON–The senior class of 2022 officially graduated on Saturday June 4, at 1 p.m., when they moved their tassels and thrown up their caps signaling the school has officially met its end, for them. The last day for the other grades is Tuesday, June 7.

The graduation ceremony, having just 14 graduates, was short and sweet. Class Valedictorian Sage Kilts gave a simple speech with very meaningful advice for the class. Salutatorian Aria Woodend spoke as well, adding a bit of humor and nostalgia to the ceremony. The class President was Dylan Bledsoe, who read off the names of his peers as they accepted their diplomas.

Prior to the “Big Day”, the senior class spent their last week of high school practicing the well-known traditions. They took to lake Chelan last Wednesday for their “Senior Sneak” trip, where they had fun in the sun at a local water park, and then enjoyed dinner on a boat cruise of the lake.

The rest of DHS will celebrate the years end with an all-school hike, organized by the Outdoor Club. This activity was found to be popular last year, and so the club decided to give it another shot. Students will spend the day in the Blue Mountains, hiking, playing games, cooking, and enjoying the outdoors together.
