Being an active member in the community, Aubree’s favorite

After graduation, Aubree plans to attend Alma College to pursue a

and service are very important to Abigail.
She currently serves as the president of
Farwell National Honor Society and was
the secretary of the PTK Honor Society this past year through
MMCC. Through PTK, she was part of the Deadwood Grove
Committee that planned the annual haunted trail fundraiser; the
Honors in Action Project Committee exploring new frontiers; and
the Michigan Regional Committee that planned, prepared for, and
set up the state regional convention. Through NHS, she was a tutor
for credit recovery and the after school program. She also helped
with other NHS fundraising and service events such as Popcorn

Glow Dance, Bash for Bernie, and VFW roadside clean-up.
Abigail has earned many academic accolades throughout high
school. She was the academic gold award winner in foreign

a junior, she also earned the Michigan Technological Society of
Women’s Engineers Award. As a senior, she earned the gold award

Abigail has a 3.973 gpa and has earned her academic letter, bars,
and the President’s Award for Academic Excellence. She was a first

Having earned the Centralis Gold Scholarship from Central
Michigan University, Abigail will be pursuing a Secondary

continue her foreign language education through coursework and
study abroad opportunities. She hopes to teach in a rural school
district and is considering teaching English abroad. She said,
“Foreign Language is a growing necessity in an increasingly
globalized world. I want to share our language with others and learn
their native tongues in turn. I also want to get involved in service
organizations and make a positive impact on my community, state,
and country.” Other scholarships Abigail has received include the
Isabella Bank Scholarship, the CMU Bookstore Book Scholarship
through Quiz Central, and the Farwell Area Scholarship Association
Scholarship.

Class of 2016 – Elementary Walk
The Class of 2016 toured the elementary school in their caps and
gowns on Monday, May 9. This was a great experience for both the
elementary students and the graduating seniors. It was a fantastic
way to help younger students think about their future success, goal
setting, and establishing expectations. For the graduates, it was a
chance to reflect upon their accomplishments and the path they had
to travel to get to this milestone in their lives. The younger students
helped our graduates understand that someone is always looking up
to them as role models. With hard work and dedication, great things
can be accomplished.
Farwell High School Honors Night
Farwell High School held its annual Honors Night on Monday, May 9. All seniors and select underclassmen were invited to receive awards.

To wrap up the spring season and celebrate the accomplishments of the state track qualifiers and varsity softball teams, the student body
gathered for their final pep assembly of the year. It ended with a spirit tunnel from the new gym all the way to the high school office. The
athletes ran through the tunnel as the students cheered for them and wished them luck.
