Senior Reflection Essays Due April 24th, 2026@11:59pm

Seniors interested in speaking at graduation must submit an essay reflecting on class perspectives, educational experiences, maturing process, and view of the future. Your speech should reflect your class as a whole, not just your experience! Speeches, without names attached, are judged by a panel of faculty with final approval by the administration.

Email your reflections to Mrs. Pippins dpippins@normanps.org with “Senior Reflection” in the subject line
