✨BEN DID IT AGAIN! ✨
Remember back in February when we announced Benjamin Wayne was a candidate for the U.S. Presidential Scholars Program? Today, the Michigan Department of Education officially announced that Ben has been selected as one of only 19 semifinalists in the ENTIRE state!
Being named a Scholar in the Arts semifinalist places Ben among the absolute top graduating seniors in the nation. We could not be prouder of his hard work, talent, and leadership.

In case you missed it, our Senior Class of 2026 took a nostalgic trip last Friday for the annual Senior Parade! They visited their former elementary and middle schools to say a huge thank you to the teachers who helped them start it all. There were endless smiles, emotional reunions, and lots of big hugs.
And because you're never too old for recess, they even spent some extra time hitting the playgrounds they once ruled as kids! 🛝✨
We know a few photos have been floating around, but we couldn't resist sharing a few more of our favorite moments from an unforgettable day. Check them out below! 📸👇
