On Tuesday, Sept. 19, the class of 2024 participated in their first event, Senior Kickoff.
Seniors were excused from their fifth and sixth period classes and given the opportunity to spend time with their classmates on the softball field.
Before entering the event, all students attending had to fill out an Educare form which had to be signed prior to the event.
Senior Maylene Zamora shared that she felt the process to enter the event was very chaotic and led to a huge crowd outside the entrance.
“It was really hard to get in because the lines were so long,” Zamora said. “I just feel like this year everything was so disorganized and last minute.”
The kickoff was hosted by Senior Board and the event was set up with the help of eleventh grade volunteers.
“We had to rearrange a lot of things, but we are all really happy with how it turned out in the end,” junior volunteer Anait Atkozyan said.
Some of the activities available included outdoor games, such as Giant Jenga, card games and a performance by the school’s Dance Company.
“Senior Kickoff was an overall exciting day,” senior Kyrillos Mina said.
ASB Vice President Karen Grewal expressed that she felt the event on a whole was a success, despite the few hiccups they faced throughout the day.
“Although there were a few problems, I think Senior Kickoff went really well and was a great way to start off the class of 2024,” Grewal said.
