If My Guidance Counselor Could See Me Now

Admission | Kila McCann, December 4, 2011

As our seniors prepared for life beyond Darlington, my message to them is to know themselves and what makes them happy. Most will not know where their paths may take them upon graduating, but I am confident that they will have realized their passions and strengths. As all of our lives take many twists and turns, one aspect remains constant, Darlington is a part of who we are.
