On Friday, May 23, Eagle Elementary welcomed back members of the BCHS Class of 2025 for one final visit before graduation. The event marked the start of this year’s Senior Assemblies, a heartwarming Bethlehem tradition.
The gymnasium was vibrant with Eagle pride as current kindergarteners led the former Eagle students into the assembly where they were greeted by their families and a sea of waving pom-poms and cheering elementary students clad in black and orange. The event featured welcoming remarks from Eagle Principal Dianna Reagan and teacher Paula DiBiase, who organized the gathering, along with their former teachers, including several who had returned from retirement for the special occasion.
The afternoon was filled with hugs and laughter as seniors shared their favorite Eagle memories as well as their plans for the future. As part of the festivities, the fifth graders created a special keepsake for each graduate, a collection titled “Words of Wisdom.” The compilation, filled with advice and encouragement, was given to every senior.
The celebration concluded with a sweet slideshow of the seniors’ time at Eagle, stirring smiles and tears as families and graduates reflected on their earliest school days together.
Thank you to the entire Eagle community for making this a meaningful and memorable day! Congratulations and good luck to the Class of 2025!
