Senior Academy

Fulfilling a Promise

Mr. Harrington set a goal for the students in last year's US History class of achieving at least 80% 3's and 4's on the EOC. His students surpassed expectations with 92% and he paid the bet by shaving his head on the first week of their Senior year. Congratulations to the Class of 2011!
