Seniors of 2023 pulled off a great senior prank yesterday! Every single chair in the building was moved to the greenhouse with a new combo lock, little signs posted throughout the school, items from each staff member placed in another's classroom and a 'For Sale' sign placed outside of the building, for which we had several phone calls inquiring about the impending sale.
