Sweeney High

February 5th

Senior Night

The Signing of the Wall by Graduating Seniors

It's been a tradition here at Sweeney High to have all senior basketball players sign the gymnasium wall on Senior Night. Some teams have chosen to sign in an orderly manner, one right after another within the same general space. Some chose to sign different areas of the gym wall, apart from their teammates. Some chose not to sign, even.

The Signing of the Wall has been a beloved tradition since the school's founding. Kids come back ten, twenty, even fifty years after graduating and check out their signatures. Sometimes, spouses and kids are involved. A few great grandchildren have even been able to trace grandma's handwriting from back when she was playing for Sweeney High. How cool is that?
