Franklin Central HS Orchestras

Congratulations Grads!

One last time for the class of 2026….while they graduate today ❤️

And that’s a wrap on our senior class of 2026.

Seniors, it has been a joy to watch you all grow and learn in your abilities all these years. Thank you for sticking with orchestra, it hasn’t always been easy but we know it was worth it.

Parents, thanks for making your kids stick with orchestra. The Arts are so important and bring a development you can’t get anywhere else. We know it hasn’t always been easy, but we know it was worth it.

Shonk, Dawson and Lucas - thanks for pouring into this group of students. We appreciate you more than you can know. It hasn’t always been easy but we know it was worth it.

On a personal note, my only kid that will go through this program graduates with this class. I’ve loved watching her learn her violin. There have been days where it was painful, days it was easy - but I know that everyday she grew. I sincerely appreciate the village in this program that made it easier to stick to it and I hope all the other parents feel the same.

Best of luck 2026 - I, for one, can’t wait to cheer you all on and will be asking how you are all doing in the coming years.

Last but certainly not least - Jaidon.

Jaidon, thanks for being part of our program for so many years. Best of luck in all you do!

Ah, Jameson - today is your day. You have been fun to watch over the years, and anyone who paid attention knows you have enjoyed your time in orchestra, and we are so thankful for your love of your instrument. Thank you for being such a wonderful part of our program, you will be missed.

And we hope you keep playing - no reason to not keep up a life changing talent! Good luck in your next chapter, can’t wait to see your success in all you do.

(Shoutout to your mom for being on the Boosters too!!)

In the final stretch of honoring our seniors , and their high school careers, we give you Nimrat.

Quiet when you first meet, hilarious after - she is a gem! Graduating a year early continues to show this group’s smarts but if that wasn’t enough, she wants to go into neuroscience.

Nimrat / thanks for being part of our orchestra program, we’ve loved having you. Have the best time at your last high school Kings Island trip, and don’t be a stranger - best of luck in your next chapter.

Another day, another senior celebration.

Ah Gage, some of us have known you since you were knee high, and are so impressed by the man you have become. You are wonderful at viola, and you are a wonderful person.

You will be missed not only by your peers, but also everyone in the orchestra program who has come to know and love you. Big shout out to you mom for stepping onto the Boosters when we had little parent help, and for her stepping up and taking on a role to support the program!

Best of luck in your next chapter - hope to see you at a concert in a year (or more likely two 😉).

Ah, Talon! It is our turn to celebrate you!

You win most fun pictures sent in for the senior slides! Thanks for being such a cool part of our violin section during your high school career!

Wishing you all the best in your future YouTube career! Certainly hope there will be some cool music as part of it!
