Congratulations, Lauren! Your perfect senior quote: “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it” We are so proud of you for your hard work and for having the courage to be successful on your own terms!
David Lamb this is top 10% which means 500 students are in this class.
IS there really only 50 grads? Has Tate enrollment dropped that far?
Congratulations to all of these students!
Extra greetings to the Dixon family! It doesn’t seem like enough time has passed from when we were all at Longleaf for it to be time for John to graduate already!
