Seniors: Where are they headed?

Where are Greenport Seniors going?

Anton Riehle ‘21


As the end of the year rapidly approaches, high school graduation looms large for GHS seniors, leaving them pondering their futures. The Quill reached out to as many seniors as possible, asking them two seemingly simple questions:

1)What are your post-high school plans?

2) Now that nearly 12 years have passed since the start of the first grade in September 2009, we asked them to give a little insight into where they hope to see themselves in 12 years.

From a house with a wife and kids to the West African coast with a chimp, we got quite the spread of answers!
