The Senior Sign Caper
Ransom Everglades seniors discovered large personalized signs – their senior yearbook pages – when they emerged from their homes or apartments on April 18. Head of School Penny Townsend and other members of the administration fanned out across South Florida throughout the day to plant the signs in seniors' yards or hand-deliver them to apartment-dwellers.
Some signs were left anonymously. Some families caught the administration in the act. The Senior Sign Caper elicited smiles, a few tears (mostly from parents) and lots of sharing on social media. All 135 seniors received a sign; a few photos from the day are offered here.
