Oct. 27-31, Central Catholic seniors will participate in a series of events dubbed "Senior Week." The week is filled with activities and events for seniors.
Main events include Senior Olympics, a scavenger hunt and a costume competition. Senior Olympics is an event in which members of the graduating class participate in events in the school parking lot. The top three teams win cash prizes. Seniors can make teams of up to six people who will participate in relay races and other activities. Olympic events are held after school.
During the scavenger hunt, teams of six compete to follow clues hidden throughout the school. Contestants take pictures of the clues and the team to complete the hunt fastest wins. The week ends with a costume competition. Seniors can dress up either in groups or individually in their favorite costumes. Students and teachers will vote on their favorite individual and group costume for prizes.
These are only a few of the activities seniors will take part in during Senior Week. The event is a way for them to have fun and celebrate their last year of high school with friends.
Weeks of planning go into this special week to ensure events run smoothly. Senior class President Geri Stanus has been in charge of organizing the week in collaboration with the school administration.
"This is definitely going to be a week to look forward to for the seniors," Stanus said. "We've taken a lot of ideas from the past and built on them. Everyone can expect to have a great time the entire week."
