Hopkins held its annual Prize Day celebration on Thursday morning, June 6, under the big tent on Pratt Field. The community gathered for the last time this school year as students from all grades were awarded prizes for their achievements. The event culminated in the reveal of the Class of 2024 banner. This year’s banner was created by student artists in Derek Byron’s Studio Art 3 Class along with the input of a senior steering committee. Thank you to seniors Ava Maccaro, Alix Rawald, Katherine Tombaugh, and junior Rosa Bilston for their hard work and beautiful artistry. Themed with a Hopkins twist on classic "Peanuts" characters, this unique banner will brighten Heath Commons next year, and the reunion tent when the class of 2024 returns for Alumni Weekend every five years.
Please see the list of prize winners below the video, some of which were awarded on June 6 and others on May 24 at the Yearbook and Awards Assembly. Watch a video of the full presentation below.
