‘Don’t forget to hug your momma’: Big Country’s Class of 2025 walks into the future
BIG COUNTRY, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) – May marks a time of bittersweet goodbyes — the end of one chapter and the beginning of another for graduating seniors. As families and friends gather to celebrate this milestone, let’s take a look at how our Big Country graduates are reflecting on the journey — from walking the halls of their elementary schools and inspiring the next generation, to giving back through service to their community.
Senior walks are an annual tradition for many schools, where seniors walk through the halls of their school or possibly their elementary or middle schools, reminiscing about all the memories made within those four walls.
