Senior Year Events at St. Agnes
Your senior year at St. Agnes Academy is nothing short of exciting, with special events around every corner, perfect for sharing on social media.
From traditions that bring the whole class together to milestone moments, each event is a chance to capture the memories that define your senior year. Below, you’ll find some of the biggest senior-year highlights, along with caption ideas to help you post about each moment!
1. Senior Sunrise
Senior Sunrise is organized by
St. Agnes’ Student Council and is hosted on the first day of classes. Seniors come to school early to take pictures in their pajamas with friends and classmates, watching the sunrise together.
Many get together with friends before this day to decorate their cars with fun, colorful designs. Student Council prepares a donut-and-coffee spread for the seniors to enjoy before their last-first-day-of-high-school begins, and the seniors gather for a class picture.
Caption Ideas:
“Last first day. #SeniorSunrise”
“Up with the sun, ready for senior year.”
“Donuts, pajamas, and senior vibes.”
2. Fish Week
Fish Week is one of St. Agnes’ longest-standing traditions. Also known as
Welcome Week, this week marks the official integration of the new class of freshmen into the St. Agnes community.
Each freshman is paired with a senior, whose identity remains a secret until the end of the week. The seniors dress up their freshmen buddy in silly costumes and give them dares and challenges to complete throughout the week.
Identities are revealed with Friday’s costume parade, where seniors and freshmen dance around the school in themed costumes. The week concludes with the Neon Dance on Saturday night, where seniors and freshmen are invited to dance the night away in neon garb and celebrate the sisterhood of the Academy.
Caption Ideas:
“Fish Week fun!”
“A week of costumes, chaos, and sisterhood”
“Secret senior duties complete!”
3. VVD
Veritas Vacation Day (VVD) is a much-beloved day when classes are cancelled, and the student body enjoys a fun field day!
The special twist of VVD is this: the date of VVD remains a surprise to all until it is announced over the school's speakerphone. Once revealed, VVD commences with field-day-style activities, including a petting zoo, obstacle courses, face painting, a silent disco, and more.
Caption Ideas:
“Can you guess what day it is? VVD!”
“Veritas Vacation-ing today.”
“Petting zoo > class #VVD”
4. Winter Formal
Winter Formal (WinFo) is St. Agnes’ winter dance, organized by Student Council. Often held in January or February, student planners choose a fresh theme for the event. In recent years, students have seen a Valentine's-themed dance and, most recently, an aviation-themed dance.
Caption Ideas:
“Dancing our worries away tonight!”
“Never too cold to boogie”
“Getting groovy on the dance floor”
5. Graduation
Graduation marks the end of the
seniors’ time at St. Agnes, as faculty, administration, and family members gather to commemorate and acknowledge each graduate.
Seniors put on their caps and gowns for this day and listen to speeches from the administration and the valedictorian. Special awards acknowledging standout members of their class are also distributed.
Finally, each senior walks across the stage to receive their St. Agnes diploma, a mark of the completion of their high school years.
Caption Ideas:
“Caps on, chapter closed.”
“Officially a St. Agnes grad”
