Baccalaureate Ceremony

Graduation weekend kicks off each year with the Baccalaureate service. Held annually at a local church, this activity is sponsored by the Activity Club and celebrates the accomplishments of the WKHS seniors, honors the impact they have left on the school and community, and wishes the seniors luck as they move on in life toward the exciting activities and adventures ahead. 

Tonight’s program featured many of my talented students.  Maddie Beal and Anne Dargenio were on the planning committee along with Ellen Baxter (mom to Ryan).  Jacob Bloom provided a variety of introductions for the event and introduced the parent speaker. Michelle Borchers performed the piano prelude as the ceremony got started. And several other of my students shared their beautiful voices including Anne Dargenio, Maddie Beal  and Grayson Brown.  Elizabeth Borchers was awarded an Activity Club scholarship and Maggie Baumgardner and Amy Cameron (mom to Grace) introduced several of the Wolves for Cubs mentors for this year including Grayson Biglin, Miriam Bassani, Maddie Beal, and Justin Souder.  (There may have been other students who served as Wolves for Cubs mentors up front but I am forgetting at the moment - sorry!)  I particularly loved seeing all of your baby pictures alongside your senior pictures!  You have grown into incredible young men and ladies... and you sure were cute babies/ little kids!  :-)


Each year I love Baccalaureate and tonight was no exception.  Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to put together such a special night!
