Senior Ellen Adams, who was voted “Most Likely to Sign in Late” said she might hold the record for “most tardies in Stratford history” and the vote probably was unanimous.

Senior Superlatives for the class of 2020 were announced at the Monday morning assembly on Nov. 4. Many people may have expected their superlative, but there were definitely a few recipients who were shocked when their names were called.

John Thomas Carter, who received the superlative for Biggest Flirt, says he was “shocked but thinks it is funny.” His friends chimed in and said that it was very fitting for him. When asked about his Best Smile superlative, Raelen Jones was flustered and said he was “very flattered.” 

A few seniors were expecting to receive their superlative. Ellen Adams received the superlative for Most Likely to Sign in Late, and that was no surprise to anybody. She said  she “was not very surprised because [I have] the most tardies in Stratford history” and she is convinced the vote for her “was almost unanimous.”

Jenny Belle Butler received the Friendliest superlative and she says she wasn’t surprised at all. She says she had been talking about it with her friends, so she “was expecting it.” She said she is happy she won it with classmate Will Deal.
