With all the work we’ve done this year, it’s only fair to give a voice to all of those leaving us. Our seniors—some of the most special and dedicated people we could have asked for—were deeply involved in every aspect of what we call “The Lakewood Times.” From specialized blogs and sports writing to covering our community and creating honorable yearbook pages, our seniors were innovators who brought talents from other classes and activities into this room. In this final episode of the year, we end on a note of gratitude—for all we have achieved and for those who made it possible
