May 14, 2024

As the 2023-2024 school year comes to an end, we would like to thank all of our senior journalists for their tireless efforts to provide content for our loyal subscribers.

Four years of memories with academics, athletics, awards, and multiple other extracurricular activities, these seven seniors have left their mark at Brooklyn High School. They will be remembered for being well-rounded and just overall good people. Strong personalities with a touch of humor, this class will be missed.

As they type their final article, let us hear from them as they are set to receive their diplomas and will soon-become Hurricane alumni.

Senior #1: Angelina Colon

*Favorite BHS Memory: “One of my favorite memories at BHS was when I was told that I no longer needed my IEP.” 

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “The best advice I can give the seniors next year is to try your hardest and try to keep your grades up because they are important.” 

*Plans after Graduation: “I plan on going to The University of Toledo and majoring in Nursing or Psychology.” 

Senior #2: Alaura Darden

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Take everything step-by-step and finish strong!”

Senior #3: Rebecca Fagiani

*Favorite BHS Memory: “Being part of the school musical for the past six years was awesome and just my senior year, overall.”

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Don’t let your time in high school go to waste. Make the most of all of it.”

*Plans after Graduation: “I will be attending Baldwin Wallace University for a major in Sociology and a minor in International Studies.” 

Senior #4: Isabella Hinkle

*Favorite BHS Memory: “My favorite memory would have to be all of homecoming week. Between the football game, senior breakfast, and homecoming activities, I loved making core memories with the kids I grew up with one last time.”

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Make the most out of high school, get involved, make memories, and cherish it. It goes by too quickly.”

*Plans after Graduation: “Attending The Ohio State University to earn a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing and then attend Medical School to earn my Master’s to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner.” 

Senior #5: Chloe Pawul

*Favorite BHS Memory: “I would have to say my entire senior year. For the majority of my class, we have been together since elementary school, and spending our last year together and doing a bunch of activities together inside and outside of school was bitter sweet.”

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Your senior year flies by; it’s not just some corny thing that people say. It is true! Cherish your last year with the kids you grew up with. And most importantly, have a better senior prank than we did!”

*Plans after Graduation: “Attend Cleveland State University to major in Psychology and then continue my education to become a Psychiatrist.”

Senior #6: Chloe Rojak

*Favorite BHS Memory: “My favorite memory has to be cheer. Even though I don’t cheer anymore, it was still a big part of my life.”

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Do your work when it’s given to you! It’s so much easier to manage. You might not want to do it; maybe you feel lazy or tired, but in the end, it’s worth it.”

*Plans after Graduation: “My plans are to attend Brown Aveda Institute, which is a Cosmetology school. After two years, I plan to go back to college for a Business degree so I can further my education and possibly open my own salon.”

Senior #7: Jordan Wilcox

*Favorite BHS Memory: “The time I got $50 for setting off fireworks in the bathroom.”

*Advice for Next Year’s Seniors (Class of 2025): “Don’t try to be something you’re not for someone else.”

We hope each of you goes on to accomplish amazing things in life. No matter what your plans are, remember to reach for the stars. The future is yours, so make sure you work hard, accomplish what you want to, and be confident in yourself. Never get in your own way when it comes to personal happiness and success.

So one last time, thank you for being terrific writers, great leaders, and most importantly, better people. 

You have made Brooklyn proud! #Canesforlife
