Class of 2020 – Senior Portraits

Senior Spotlight – Though the end of the school year for the Class of 2020 is a challenge, it certainly does not define these incredible students and their hard work over their last four years in high school. Their future is a bright one, and I am excited to hear what they do with it.

Congratulations to Moira! She is graduating from Highland High School, and plans to attend the University of Utah majoring in Math and Physics with an ACCESS Scholarship for Women in STEM

Too many good ones, but probably when my soccer team beat the undefeated Skyline on their senior night after we hadn’t won essentially all season, or exploring the dusty catacombs of the school with the carcinogen gang.

Name 3 things you would tell your freshman self.

• Please Google what a GPA is

Chaotic, new, asbestos.

It goes by really fast, even without a pandemic, probably. Take as many photos and make as many memories as you can.
