you leave high school, regardless of what you

do after, take an opportunity to reflect on who

you are.”

Her middle daughter, who graduated four

years ago, said that, if high school graduates

think the prior four years went fast, hold on to

their mortarboards, because the next four

years will go even faster.

Bassett’s advice focused on opportunities,

grabbing at every one that comes along, and

having no regrets.

“Build on what you learned – and you’ll

be surprised at what you can do,” she said.

High school Principal Lucas Trierweiler

recommended the seniors for their diplomas,

and school board President Jessica Brandli

officially accepted the class of 2021.

School board members and Superintendent

Kyle Corlett awarded a diploma to each

graduate.

As the exercises drew to a close, most of

the graduates threw their caps into the air,

then recovered them before they filed out of

the stadium to see parents, family and friends

and celebrate their accomplishments.
