Headlocks and tiger trots

Date:

by Madison Prellwitz, GHS Blue Ink

    Some of us can agree that we all dislike school. Whether it's the homework, waking up early, or just going in general. Although school isn’t for everyone, there are positives to going to school. Getting to see your friends, seeing your favorite teacher, or school lunches. Some of us just don’t care because we’ll see them next year. However, the seniors are ones who won't come back next year as they graduate their way into the real world. To switch it up a bit, what is something “weird” the seniors might miss?

Bohl with student in headlock
Wrestling coach and High School teacher Jason Bohl greets students in ways the seniors say they'll miss next year.

     For example some may miss the way Mr. Bohl greets everyone in the mornings, like putting them in headlocks or slapping them on the back. Some may miss Dragon Olympics, and others will just miss the chicken ranch pasta we get at lunch.

     “I’d have to say I’ll mostly miss Mr Heumiller and his weird obsessions with Tigers'' mentioned Senior Cadyn Ockenga. Ockenga said he is mostly looking forward to college next year because of the bigger and better opportunities.

     Along with Ockenga, senior Joy Fry is going to miss Mr. Heumiller, not for his funny habits but because “he's a great teacher.” Fry also said “I am going to miss being put in a headlock by Mr Bohl every time I walk by him.”

     Thinking differently, Senior Kylie Fueston claimed “I’m going to miss hearing all the gossip in the hallways, especially from the middle schoolers.” And just like Fry, Fueston will also miss Mr Bohl.

     Both Fry and Fueston have the same insight about what they are looking for next year. Agreeing they will mostly be excited to be an adult and not have to live under their parents rules.
