The seniors at Gregorio Luperon High School recently took a day off from schoolwork for a fun trip to Pennings Orchard in Warwick, New York, on September 27, 2024. This apple-picking trip gave them a chance to hang out with friends in a new way. 

For many students, this was their first time going apple picking and it gave the seniors a chance to take a break from the stress of schoolwork, college applications, and all the pressures that come with their final year. Spending time in the peaceful, open orchard allowed students to relax and have fun together in a way that isn’t possible in a classroom. The trip wasn’t just about picking apples, it was a chance to relax, laugh, and make memories with friends.

Gregorio Luperon High School organizes trips like this to give seniors something special to remember. The staff believes that these experiences help students connect on a deeper level, while also giving them a break. For the seniors of Gregorio Luperon High School, this day will be a cherished memory, marking one of the final chapters of their high school journey.
