Seniors in Mrs. Pintar’s AP Literature class took a trip down memory lane during one of their final days together, gathering in the library for a special read-aloud reminiscent of their elementary school years.
Gathered on the carpet, students listened as high school librarian Mrs. Petrosino read “Will the Pigeon Graduate?” by Mo Willems aloud. After the story, students got creative by making handprint pigeon artwork. Using their own painted handprints for the body and cutout pieces for the details, each student designed their own pigeon and completed the prompt, “I am ready…” with a personal message about what lies ahead after high school.
From sitting “crisscross applesauce” on the carpet to college and career plans, the experience marked a full-circle moment for the seniors as they prepare to turn the page to what’s next.
