With the sky still pitch black, the class of 2024 woke up at the crack of dawn and started their morning at Ballast Point Park for the annual senior sunrise.

The 2023-24 school year began Thursday, Aug. 10 as Robinson students reunite with their classmates for one final first day. Despite the anxiety in the air,  seniors eagerly are anticipating for their final year of high school.

“It was really nice to see everyone again. Taking pictures was fun and the sunrise was really pretty,” Kaitlyn Campo (’24) said.

Many students decided to customize their Burger King crowns to showcase their uniqueness.

“I decorated my crown with some of my friends. It was really fun to see everyone’s crown designs and see each other before the official start of senior year,” Katie Orlick (’24) said.

As the sun rose, students took a moment to reflect on their four years together.

“Senior sunrise was really nostalgic because we got together with the people we’ve been together with for four years. These people have encouraged me to work hard and push through all the challenges. At the end, we are all in this together,” Shoira Afandikhonova (’24) said.

About the Contributor
Cecilia Cheng
Cecilia Cheng, Print Managing Editor
Cecilia Cheng is a senior at Robinson and the Print Managing Editor of Knight Writers. This is her third year on staff and her third year as an editor. A self-proclaimed "Swiftie," Cheng is constantly listening to some form of pop music, but her current favorites include Taylor Swift, Clairo and Pheobe Bridgers. When she's not listening to music, Cheng can be found taking photos, hanging out with friends, thrifting or catching up on her favorite TV shows. As of right now, her absolute favorite show is "Heartstopper," but it fluctuates frequently. This love of TV and movies is reflected in her large discography of reviews on the Knight Writers website and former position as the A&E editor for two years. Cheng makes it clear that A&E is her favorite section. Although she is a big fan of A&E, Cheng enjoys writing articles regardless of their section. "My favorite thing about journalism is the storytelling aspect of it," Cheng said. "I love how I’m able to express my opinion and give people that are underrepresented a voice as well." Outside of journalism, Cheng is involved in many other aspects of the Robinson community, holding positions as the Secretary of Women in STEM and the Social Media Manager of Mu Alpha Theta. Despite her connections to the school, Cheng is excited to graduate and see what awaits her. She hopes to head to her top college, Northeastern, where she plans to major in Biology. However, she isn't prepared to forget her time as a Knight Writer and plans to pursue her journalistic interests as well. "Right now, I’m looking to go to college and major in Biology, to go the pre-med track. I haven’t decided where I want to go yet, but I really hope I get into Northeastern. Also, if it’s possible, I want to double major in Journalism or I would join my college’s newspaper." (Profile by Charlotte Stone)
