Although his high school running career reached an untimely end, senior Patrick Moran plans to continue doing the sport he loves at Berry College. “[When] school closed, it cut the season basically right when it started around the first race. I've coped with it best by staying positive and talking to my teammates even though we aren't running in season,” Magnet senior and long-distance track runner Patrick Moran said.

As the ending to senior year and graduation swiftly approach for NC’s juniors and while NC watches as the seniors depart, new adventures will start, new group chats will form, and acceptances will arrive. Good luck to all of NC’s seniors leaving and we hope you will wish us (the juniors) luck because our senior year will consist of challenges, heartbreak, and failure without you.

Now in 2019, seniors at NC see themselves predominantly working and focusing on self-growth. The difference demonstrates how staggering the change in ambition has become for high school seniors.
