In what I hope will become a new tradition, Sonoma Valley High School seniors put on their caps and gowns May 20, boarded school buses, and headed out for “Senior Walkabout.” Inspired by a recent article in the Huffington Post, Sonoma Valley High seniors visited all five elementary schools, incuding El Verano, pictured; Adele Harrison and Altimira Middle Schools; Sonoma Charter and Woodland Star; and Presentation and St. Francis.
At each school site, the seniors, wearing graduation garb, were greeted by students and staff, receiving high fives, applause, musical tributes and much more. Many seniors were able to shake hands with former teachers, many of whom were in tears. All of the seniors were able to enjoy the admiration of the younger students who see high schoolers as the epitome of cool.
