There was a full house at the West Shore Middle School Stepping Up Ceremony on 6/6/2024 -- on both sides of the venue. The excitement was clear -- and the evening was perfection! The collection of laughter, deep sentiment, and love could be felt by all.
A few speeches, a few memories, and a few smiles reminded our kids that the world is ready for them. No dream too large -- and the future is bright. Congrats Class of 2024!
Here they come! The HMS Class of 2024 entered the auditorium filled with cheers, applause, and well-wishes as their commencement begins. Pure joy!

And the winner is ... East Shore Middle School!!! Crew members Chloe Hudd and Kerrie Astrosky muscled through to enter the fastest time of the entire fleet -- and will maintain the beloved Great Boat Race trophy for the year. Great job, all!!
Six heats, with 2 boats each, ran with timers at-the-ready to see who could complete the course loop the fastest, overall. The crews consisted of teachers and administrators from the schools -- and the competition was fierce!
