SENIOR ISSUE SENIOR ISSUE 20202020
Dear Class of 2020,
During this time of uncertainty and fear, it seems difficult not to focus on what is going on in the world currently. With many all over the world falling victim to the deadly COVID-19 virus, all we tend to think about the consequences of this development, and what it means for our future. However, this is also a time to celebrate our achievements, our graduation from QO, and to be hopeful for the future. Whether you are traveling far away to study, or staying close to home, we all are excited to move onto the next chapter of our lives. These past few years have been filled with new friendships, thrilling experiences, a state championship, dazzling productions, and lots of fun all around. At first, we were nervous freshmen, unaware of who we would become by our senior year; now in just a few short months we will be departing to undergo the next part of our lives. While that day in March may have been the last day we as students walked out of those red doors and outside those brick walls, it feels nice to know that while Corona may have canceled the rest of the year, that it can not wipe the memories of this great school out of our minds. It has been a great four years, Cougars, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for us.
Sincerely,The Prowler Staff Seniors
