photo of senior hailey rondo class of 2026. MY Favorite HS Memory the #1 Skill I'm Taking with Me Advice for Future Seniors my Plans after Graduation The number one skill I’m taking with me is adaptability. High school taught me how to handle unexpected challenges, adjust to new situations, and keep moving forward no matter what comes my way. Being able to hangout with friends. Cherish every moment even the stressful ones. Stay true to yourself, support your classmates, and don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. Senior year goes by fast, so make the most of every opportunity and create memories you’ll treasure for years to come. After graduation, I plan to take online business courses to further develop my skills. Meanwhile, I will assist Ms. Mary with her driver’s education program, gaining experience and helping her teach.

Class of 2022 Hartford High School Alumni, Kaden Johnson has signed with Eastern Michigan University on a basketball scholarship to play his final year of college.

Kaden began his collegiate career at Goshen College before transferring to Huntington University, where he put together a phenomenal season. He earned First Team All-Conference honors, was named Defensive Player of the Year, and achieved NAIA All-American recognition. Kaden graduates from Huntington on May 2nd and will play his graduate year at Eastern.

For Kaden, this move to Division I is about more than basketball—it’s a testament to years of hard work, perseverance, and belief. His journey shows that talent can rise from anywhere, no matter how small the starting point.

High school taught me how to handle pressure, bounce back from mistakes, and keep going even when things didn’t go my way.
