BHS Senior Clap Out

BHS Senior Clap Out

The Berkley High School Seniors said goodbye to BHS and to their teachers by walking the halls one last time during the Senior Clap Out on May 23, 2023. Seniors started by gathering in the auditorium to watch the Senior Video, a collection of photos and videos from their time in Berkley Schools. They then exited the auditorium and were greeted by their friends, teachers, and beloved staff members cheering them on. This emotional final lap is an annual tradition.

New this year, seniors were also invited for a final clap out at their elementary and middle schools. During the afternoon of May 23, seniors gathered at their elementary schools to walk through the halls one last time, greeted by clapping students and teachers. The seniors found their former teachers and gave hugs and high fives and enjoyed looking at the buildings to see what was different and what remained the same. After the elementary clap out, seniors were encouraged to then visit their middle schools and enjoy a clap out there as well. This new senior tradition will carry on!
