Jubilant graduates, Class of 2019, St. Johnsbury Academy, Vermont

A few years ago I interviewed nine high school seniors in the last days of high school at St. Johnsbury Academy. We talked about what they thought their futures might look like...what they were excited about and what they were scared of.

We talked about death. We talked about prom. They were heading to college, to the Air Force, to jobs at car dealerships. One was hoping to become a professional bowler. They were naive and thoughtful and also strangely pragmatic. They were perfect. And Vermont musician set it all to music.
