Senior year is a  year of both firsfs and lasts. Af Pine Crest,  rising
           to fhe twelfth grade meant receiving class shirts that were more

            intimidating than dorky,  having  legitimate authority to skip

             student store lines or grab Chipotle for lunch,  and getting to

             claim aversions to homework brought on  by Senioritis.  Senior

               year meant signing  up to take the glossy formal pictures that

                make everyone look older,  and starting to actually feel older

                with the opening of that first acceptance letter. These exciting

                  beginnings were,  however,  inextricable from the year's

                  bittersweet endings as students prepared for the years to

                   come. As members of the senior class took their last exams,

                    ate their last Otis Spunkmeyer cookies,  and spent their last

                      months in the oft-disregarded  Pine Crest uniform, fhe weight

                      of the past four years was truly appreciated.  For this year's
                       graduating group,  senior year was a year of both firsfs


                        and  lasts.  Hopefully,  the Class of 2015 will  be not afraid
                         to look back fondly on  both,  knowing that fhe mark they

                          made on their high school would  be a lasting one.
