On Friday, June 10, the seniors of PIHS walked through the hallways of their former SAD 1 schools in their caps and gowns. Seniors were greeted by signs and cheers for siblings, friends and all graduates. 

Seniors marched through:

  • Mapleton Elementary 
  • Pine Street
  • Zippel Elementary
  • Presque Isle Middle School
  • Alternative Ed
  • Presque Isle High School

PIHS has been doing this low-tech but heartwarming tradition since 2016. “It’s surreal, I’ve gone through 14 years of school and it doesn’t feel like I should be done,” said Breanna Wasson ’22.  

“It’s bittersweet to reminisce and it was nice to see familiar faces of my former teachers,” said Ethan Shaw ’22.
