Last week we held one of our favorite end-of-year traditions at Ellsworth High School - our 2026 Decision Day! We had the best time celebrating our graduating seniors (and juniors!) as they announced their next big adventures. First, we heard an amazing keynote address from Mrs. Diane Cyr, and honored her career with a gift as she begins her retirement this summer!
Whether they’re heading off to college, packing up for trade school, joining the military, or diving straight into the workforce, the Class of 2026 is ready to take on the world. We are so proud of every single one of them and can't wait to see what they do next!
