One more day (of high school class) at Punahou
|||
Tomorrow, May 26th, 2011, will be the last day of high school class for all seniors at Punahou. Four years have gone by, just like that. Gone with the (trade) wind!
This Sunday is the Baccalaureate for Punahou seniors. Next Saturday is the graduation, one of the most well-prepared high school graduations one can expect. I am saving a few tickets, in case some close friends will be in town and want to see the performance. Yes, it has a performance that includes singing by all the seniors. It may be the only singing on stage for many of these young men and women, who have practiced for weeks.
What about the final exams? One may ask. Well, that's next week, but only for some students. The AP tests were given in early May nation-wide, so they are done. Some courses don't have the final. And, some teachers let students skip the final, if they have done well enough... Now, this is definitely news to me.
