Graduation is right around the corner. Order your customized senior yard sign before March 30.

As the school year approaches its exciting conclusion, the BPHS yearbook staff is thrilled to offer a special opportunity for proud parents to celebrate their graduating seniors.

The yearbook team is now selling customizable yard signs that allow parents to showcase their student’s achievements and plans in a fun and memorable way.

The yard signs come with three creative templates designed to highlight the unique personality of each graduate. These templates can be easily customized to include the senior’s name, school activities, and cherished memories.

For an extra touch of personalization, parents can choose to upgrade their signs to include a photo of their senior alongside their chosen plans for after graduation: college, trade school, or stepping into the workforce.

This is a wonderful opportunity to create a lasting moment that not only commemorates a significant milestone but can also serve as a source of encouragement and pride for anyone’s graduating son or daughter.

Parents interested in ordering a yard sign for their senior should be mindful of the upcoming deadlines.

The official deadline for placing orders is March 30. After this date, prices will increase due to expedited production and shipping costs, and orders will only be accepted until Apr. 15.

Senior yard sign prices range from $35- $45 depending on which options are chosen.

To ensure everyone receives their yard sign in time for graduation festivities, make sure to secure the order before the March deadline. This will help avoid any additional fees and guarantee that the yard sign arrives promptly.

Graduation is a monumental event in a student’s life and a time of reflection and celebration for families. What better way to express pride and support than by displaying a customized sign?

Each sign serves as a public affirmation of the student’s hard work and dedication while also adding to the festive ambiance of the graduation season.

Moreover, these signs can also be a beautiful keepsake that graduates can take with them as they embark on their next adventures, whether that’s moving to college, starting a new job, or pursuing personal dreams.

The BPHS Yearbook Staff is excited to offer these yard signs as a way for families to come together and celebrate their seniors.

Parents are encouraged to participate actively, sharing the news with fellow parents and inviting them to order their signs to foster a sense of community and school spirit.

In conclusion, don’t miss out on the chance to celebrate this pivotal moment in a student’s life. Order your customized yard sign today, and for more details on how to order, please refer to the yearbook team’s communication channels like Instagram.

About the Contributor

Patrick Romito, Staff Writer

And that’s another Bethel Park Black Hawks win for the boys soccer team. Whether Patrick is on the soccer field or behind the keyboard, he’s always aiming to make an impact—one play and one story at a time. This year, Patrick Romito, an 11th grader, joins Scholastic Publications for the first time. When asked why he decided to sign up, Patrick said, “I took the class to get more involved in school activities.” With a clear passion for making the most of his high school experience, Patrick is eager to contribute to the class by writing articles for the Hawk Eye newspaper. He’s ready to take on whatever stories come his way, whether spotlight features, sports, or school news. Patrick is not just a writer; he’s also an accomplished athlete. With 12 years of soccer experience under his belt and as a three-year DECA member, he balances both extracurriculars and academics with ease. As someone who enjoys variety, he’s equally open to different kinds of stories, saying, “I enjoy writing in general, so whether it’s spotlights, sports, or school news-related content, it doesn’t matter to me.” Looking ahead, Patrick’s plans after high school include studying marketing and advertising, although he’s still deciding on a specific college. In the meantime, his favorite class is Law & You with Mr. Vic. He appreciates how the course prepares him for life after high school, and he enjoys Mr. Vic’s real-life stories that make each lesson engaging. Reflecting on his time in high school, Patrick recalls the excitement of attending football games as a freshman, where he formed friendships that have lasted throughout his high school years. “I really enjoyed going to the football games freshman year because I ended up making a lot of friends there, a lot of which I’m still friends with today,” he said. Outside of school, Patrick has worked as a lifeguard at Highpoint Fitness for almost two years, a job that highlights his dedication and work ethic. When he’s not working or playing soccer, he enjoys comedy movies, with Step Brothers being his top pick. And what’s his dream vacation? Patrick hopes to one day visit Italy. “My dream vacation is Italy because first, it is very beautiful there, as well as my family roots going back to there,” he shared. In just three words, Patrick describes himself as calm, caring, and hardworking — qualities that are sure to serve him well both in and out of the classroom. Keep an eye out for Patrick’s contributions to Hawk Eye this year as he dives into the world of scholastic publications! Written by: Grace Ferency, Staff Writer
