Class of 2025 Chalking Day

It was another beautiful September morning, for another beloved senior-class tradition at Scarsdale High School. Senior students gathered in the wee hours of the morning to take part in SHS’s annual “chalking event” where friends worked together to leave their mark (at least temporarily) at the steps of the Brewster entrance.

Music and laughter filled the air as the students created some beautiful artwork and sentimental reminders to treasure these fleeting moments of their senior year. The decades-old event, organized by the Student Government and their Senior Advisors, even had SHS Principal Ken Bonamo and other administrators stopping by to admire the creative chalkings.

It’s no secret that the beginning of senior year can sometimes feel stressful, so these sorts of light-hearted moments of bonding and memory-making, seem all the more meaningful. As one senior shared, “It’s events like these that will stay with us for the rest of our lives.”
