North Surry High School seniors are making their mark! 🌟 🎓
Today, seniors completed their senior walk, visiting all of our elementary and middle schools in the North District. They were greeted with cheers, high-fives, and smiles as they walked the halls where their educational journey began. It's a beautiful reminder of how far they've come and the bright futures ahead. Congratulations, seniors! We're so proud of you! 🎉 #ClassOf2024 #SeniorSpotlight
