Our senior king got a crown, sash, and a balloon garland and our senior queen got a tiara, sash, a balloon garland, and a floral bouquet!”

In this year’s virtual setting, the feeling of friends cheering in the gym was missed by the winners. According to Villa, "[In] ASB, our main goal is to think of new ideas to keep the entire student body motivated which I think we accomplished ...Although, virtually we were still able to keep everything the same and we cannot wait to plan another virtual event soon.” Although virtual events keep students engaged during this pandemic, moving forward, students continue to hope for some in-person activities.
