Lion’s Roar seniors say goodbye

These past four years have flown by, and I can’t believe it’s coming to an end. I’ve experienced so much growth in my time here and developed so many new friendships and memories that will last a lifetime. High school gives you an amazing opportunity to make your mark. It’s where you learn your life has a purpose and that you personally can have a role in making a difference in the community...

Friday, Oct. 13, 2017, the Lions varsity football team hosts the Monticello Mustangs for the Homecoming game. The student section is packed to full capacity with students of all grade levels. Perry, just a little freshman still trying to find himself, is eye balling every move that the student’s section leaders do. From that moment on, my biggest goal in high school was to be remembered as the best...

As senior year is coming to an end, I have found myself flashing back to freshman year and the many times teachers, principles and the upperclassmen ahead of me warned just how fast high school would fly by.

Everyone grows up hearing “cherish these years,” “enjoy your senior year” and “high school will go by in the blink of an eye.” Indeed, all it took was a blink of an eye for our whole senior year to be taken. Just like that, everything we have waited 13 years for: gone. From the craziness...

High school truly does fly by. Freshman year, you walk in nervously anticipating the next four years of your life. You don’t know what to expect, but you’re excited to be one step closer to the freedom that we all long for. Sophomore year comes, and you learn more than anyone could ever want to about driver’s education and econ. You turn 16 and can finally drive— you’re another step closer...

Throughout my high school career, as many, I made mistakes; one of them being I wore 23 scrunchies in my hair for VSCO Day junior year. Trust me, I will never understand why I did that either, however, these “mistakes” lead to high school memories that will last forever. From football games, to lunches in the cafeteria, to simply just walking in the halls, I will never forget my time at Louisa...

There have been many changes this past year, good and bad. I think it’s safe to say that we have all grown when it comes to adapting to the constant change around us. However, with this shift, there has been a disconnect in the world— between friends and family, jobs, and maybe even ourselves. But not in Louisa County. Louisa County is active in its role to safely bring its members together. I...
