OA Senior Send-Off

Jul 28, 2010

Read Senior letters to the team on the home page.

An insightful comment from a parent in attendance... 

 "While I have always thought the Senior Sendoff was perhaps the most meaningful event of the year and I have always teared up...this year was especially emotional.  The kids were sooo sincere and sooo honest and so cohesive and humble.  I loved it when Jill said that they curtailed their evening activities because they wanted to.  It is true, it wasn't much of a decision...they wanted to.  It was a true testimonial to what a character program can do for the youth.

 
I remember sitting there so many years ago and thinking...will my child ever be like that? How do we help them to become that mature and well spoken? Those kids are great role models!"
