Pomp and Circumstance – the most popular song this time of year as high school seniors attend their last assembly, make their last walk, sit with their friends in just that way a last time.
Thursday, May 11, Escambia County High School seniors lined up in the hallway and walked into Hodnette Auditorium for Class Day.
Numerous honors, awards and scholarships were presented.
