    Field Days across the district this week brought t Field Days across the district this week brought the fun, laughter, and joy to wrap up an amazing school year.

    English/Spanish Post If you read about Abigail Kr English/Spanish Post If you read about Abigail Kratzer in the latest HawkTalk, you already know she's a standout student, athlete, and leader. But hearing her story in her own words makes it even more powerful. From the soccer field to the basketball court, the orchestra stage to the classroom, Abigail has embraced every opportunity Goshen has offered. She leads with joy, works with purpose, and reminds younger RedHawks not to take life too seriously. Next up: Huntington University and a future in nursing. But first, a well-earned moment to reflect on all she’s achieved. Thank you for representing us and yourself with pride, Abigail! We wish you the best as you move on to the next chapter! #HeartofaRedHawk Si lees sobre Abigail Kratzer en el último HawkTalk, ya sabes que es una estudiante, deportista y líder destacada. Pero escuchar su historia en sus propias palabras la hace aún más impactante. Desde el campo de fútbol hasta la cancha de baloncesto, desde el escenario de la orquesta hasta el aula, Abigail ha aprovechado cada oportunidad que Goshen le ha brindado. Lidera con alegría, trabaja con propósito y les recuerda a los jóvenes RedHawks que no se tomen la vida demasiado en serio. Próximamente: la Universidad de Huntington y un futuro en enfermería. Pero primero, un merecido momento para reflexionar sobre todo lo que ha logrado. ¡Gracias por representarnos y representarte con orgullo, Abigail! #HeartofaRedHawk
    English/Spanish Post They say time flies, but not English/Spanish Post They say time flies, but nothing proves it quite like this. Today, members of the Class of 2025 walked the halls of the elementary school they once called home. Years ago, they were the ones learning to read, lining up for recess, and dreaming big. This morning, they returned—taller, wiser, wearing caps and gowns, and greeted by younger students who looked up with awe and admiration. We were lucky to be at Parkside Elementary and the Junior High to capture the smiles, hugs, and high-fives. But all six elementary schools across Goshen were filled with the same pride, excitement, and emotion. Each hallway told a different version of the same story: how far they’ve come, and how ready they are to take their next step. Graduation and the final walk are just around the corner. #RedHawkFuture Dicen que el tiempo vuela, pero nada lo demuestra como esto. Hoy, los miembros de la Generación 2025 recorrieron los pasillos de la escuela primaria que una vez llamaron su hogar. Años atrás, eran ellos quienes aprendían a leer, hacían fila para el recreo y soñaban en grande. Esta mañana, regresaron, más altos, más sabios, con togas y birretes, y fueron recibidos por estudiantes más jóvenes que los miraban con asombro y admiración. Tuvimos la suerte de estar en la Primaria Parkside y la Secundaria para capturar las sonrisas, los abrazos y los saludos. Pero las seis escuelas primarias de Goshen estaban llenas del mismo orgullo, entusiasmo y emoción. Cada pasillo contaba una versión diferente de la misma historia: lo lejos que han llegado y lo listos que están para dar el siguiente paso. La graduación y la caminata final están a la vuelta de la esquina. #RedHawkFuture
