On Friday, May 9, seniors from the Class of 2025 at Proctor High School took a meaningful walk down memory lane as they returned to Conkling Elementary—revisiting the very halls where their educational journey began. Greeted with cheers, high-fives, and handmade signs from current elementary students, the seniors were celebrated for how far they’ve come and the bright futures ahead.

This special event gave graduates a chance to thank their former teachers, reflect on their growth, and inspire the next generation of Raiders. For younger students, it was a powerful reminder that hard work, perseverance, and pride in one’s school community can lead to incredible accomplishments.

We look forward to seeing groups of seniors at each of our elementary buildings in the coming weeks! thank you to our Conkling seniors for showing our youngest learners what’s possible!
