As I celebrate my 50th high school reunion this weekend, the 2025-2026 school year is gearing up to start next week. School bus drivers are driving through the neighborhoods to familiarize their routes, community requests for school supply donations have been ongoing since the beginning of the month, the Ohio sales tax holiday is in effect until the 14th to give parents a break with the back-to-school purchases, and for the high school seniors who drive to school, if they so choose, they can paint their parking spot.
Senior year is the most unique of all high school years. While seniors are technically still adolescents, they are in the midst of preparing for adulthood and college life. This year is full of the past, the present, and preparing for the future for these young people.
As I celebrate my memories of my senior year, these 18-year olds are beginning theirs with creativity, humor, and splashes of color.

Love the creativity with the next two...they're side by side in the parking lot.
I have never seen anything like this! What senior year fun!
