We live in uncertain times and none of us expected our senior year to end this way, but here we are. The past month has been a whirlwind of emotions, and I’ve had a lot of time to sit and reflect on my time at North Platte High School. Here are some of my thoughts…

If someone had told me four years ago how my senior year would end, this is the last thing I would have expected them to say. If they would have told me that March 12 was my last day of high school, I...
By the time I walk across the stage to accept my diploma, I will have spent 4,647 days within North Platte schools. Twelve years, eight months, twenty-three days. In kindergarten, my class all pitched...
