Wills, Superlatives, and More

As students here at WCS begin the final quarter of this school year, the seniors are constantly being reminded of the short time they have left. A few weeks ago, each senior was handed an “end of the year” schedule. This included the dates for our ditch day, senior chapel, and graduation. On this sheet we were also asked to fill out specific information about ourselves such as our favorite Bible verse, what we plan to do in our future, and who we would like to give our senior blessing.
           
Last week, each senior was given another packet similar to the first. Unlike the first, however, this packet was interesting and fun to fill out. Something that almost every senior student looks forward to is filling out their “will.” These wills are simply lists of items, attributes, and other things that seniors wish to figuratively leave behind to certain non-seniors. These wills eventually appear in the yearbook for all to see.
           
The other section of this senior packet was filled with superlatives. In case you don’t know, superlative ultimately means the most or best of something. Thus, seniors were able to write down, and essentially vote on, who they think is the most likely to do/be something, or who has/is the best in some category. For example, one would vote on who they thought happened to be the funniest senior or who was perhaps the most likely to become president.
           
Be sure to pick up the yearbook when it comes out so you can see who was voted to be in each category. Some of them are quite funny as well. Also, for all you under-classmen, don’t forget to read the wills; you might’ve gotten something special.
