Gallery: Shawnee Mission East Class of 2021 Graduation

Shawnee Mission East held a graduation ceremony for the class of 2021 on Monday, May 24 at Shawnee Mission North Stadium. Each graduating senior was honored and presented a diploma at the ceremony. Seniors Sophie Rice and Maisie Sheets made speeches to their class at the beginning of the ceremony. Senior Claire Baker elaborates on her thoughts about graduation. “I was so worried that graduation would be just another event that the senior class missed out on, so I’m so happy it actually happened. It was kind of a surreal moment watching all my classmates walk across the stage… I started to tear up a little.”

At the end of the ceremony, the class of 2021 sang the school song for one final time and tossed their caps.

Photo Editor Macy Crosser believes there is no better way to spend her senior year than capturing photos or proofing captions in the J-room for Harbinger! If you can’t reach her (and you probably won’t), Crosser is either at drill team choreo, Kansas City Ballet, AP and IB classes, NHS Service chair meetings, TCP President duties or at dive team. Good luck finding her! In any spare time she has, there is a good chance she’s watching the sunset while listening to Taylor Swift, Celsius in hand. »

Senior Sabrina Dean is sad to say it is her final year on The Harbinger. After 4 semesters of being on staff, none of which in an actual Harbinger class, she is thrilled to grow as a photographer. When she isn't waiting impatiently for her raw photos to load, you can find Dean buried in a pile of work from her IB Diploma classes, finding ways to make herself more busy, or playing for The SME Senate soccer team! Being a part of various clubs, NHS, Link Crew, SHARE Chairing, and Advisory Boards doesn’t stop Sabrina from having fun! When she is begging for a mental break she will be driving for coffee with her friends, figuring out how to become unbanned from snapchat, or working as a Lifeguard or a host at the French Market. All of this, of course, could not be done without Second Best Coffee or her dog, Taco, by her side. »
