Saying goodbye is never easy. The last day of classes is bittersweet for any student, regardless of being so ready to go one could take off in a full sprint or being so reluctant to leave, it is paralyzing. As the Class of 2016 prepares for one of the most coveted Pres traditions (signing the iconic Tower and exiting the historic building through the stained-glass doors) tomorrow, today’s activities – to put it frankly – are just plain silly.
A rather recent tradition, Senior “Prank” Day, isn’t what it seems. Most would imagine a greased pig squealing through the halls, minor vandalism or a crude message displayed on the school’s marquee. And obviously these plans would be kept quiet, especially from administration. Not at Pres. Principal Barbara Wine is brought into the loop from the beginning. Each senior class plans an elaborate theme for their final day of classes, typically involving harmless activities, and is then approved by the principal. She often contributes to the various tricks. Themes of past years include beach day, zombies and Harry Potter.
The Class of 2016, on Thursday, May 12, 2016, the final day of classes at Presentation Academy, has devised a Senior Invasion. You’re now entering the Twilight Zone…
