Senior Signing Day Snapshots!

On Wednesday, May 19, the Class of 2021 celebrated both their hard work and the bright futures that lie ahead. While our seniors weren’t able to announce their post-high school plans at the Coliseum, they still found unique and meaningful ways to celebrate. At each school, there was a viewing party to watch a livestream that included student performances, a keynote speech from LGBTQ activist Brandon Wolf, and of course, the announcements of each senior on campus. Every school added their own flair to the festivities, from a dunk tank at GVR HS to a Senior Sunset at Cole HS. Below you’ll find just a few snapshots of this unforgettable day!
