Stories from the Allen Class of 2023

by Camdyn Williams The very thought of becoming a high school senior can be daunting. The school year itself is not scary, but what follows after is. After graduation, you either search for higher education or you enter the workforce, becoming a true adult and taking the responsibilities that come with it. To most kids my age, including myself, it feels like time is going way too fast, like an out of control freight train that has no intention of stopping. Honestly it’s all so much to think about, it’s a wonder we haven’t gone crazy. With that in mind, I wondered how to ease the anxieties of growing up, and came up with the idea to speak about our experience as a high school student, so that it doesn’t feel like it’s already over. A few of my classmates and myself have piled together a few of our favorite memories of Allen High School, as well as some personal feelings about becoming a senior, which I’ll be sharing with you here.
