Class of 2022: Seniors Share Last Words

The WAHS Class of 2022 has had anything but a traditional high school experience. While they did have a normal freshman year, the class’ sophomore year was halted in March of 2020 by the pandemic. They spent the vast majority of their junior year learning virtually on Zoom. The class returned to WAHS in 2021 wearing masks for the start of their senior year. As the year progressed, the atmosphere has returned to a more normal state. With graduation approaching in June, they will walk across the stage and toss their graduation caps into the air along with their peers, despite their unusual four years. These seniors have been through it all, and these are their senior last words:
