Seniors moving on
 
They'll always have a place at Collins, but 26 of our seniors have graduated and are moving on to exciting new challenges.  Go here to see pictures of the Flatts, Collins' current a capella group, performing at the Senior Dinner, and those new graduates sharing their memories.
 
Then, go here and here to see what two brand-new Collins alumni have to say about their time here and their futures.
