Foxborough's Senior Class President Reflects on High School Years

Chelsea Laracy, Foxborough's senior Class President, is getting ready to address her classmates, community and teachers at Graduation on Sunday, June 12.

Laracy will be attending the University of Rhode Island in the fall. Her future goals include obtaining a doctorate in pharmacy, maintaining a successful career, and being a prominent figure in the community.

Laracy fielded questions from Patch regarding her reflections on High School.

What is your favorite memory of high school?

High school was such a great experience that I could never pick out just one memory. Every day brought something new. But if I had to identify which memories will stay with me most in the future, it would probably those which occurred after school, like student council, soccer, and softball. Getting involved definitely played a big part in my high school career.

If you could describe the class of 2011 in a short sentence, how would you described it?

The Class of 2011 is an extremely diverse group with so many different talents, from academics, to music, to sports, which lets us play an extremely prominent role in the school.

What will you miss most about high school?

I'm going to miss the friends I have made and the tight-knit feel of the small-town community. The ability to go to school and know the majority of those walking through the halls with you is a very comforting factor.

What are you looking forward to the most in the future?

College is going to be a totally different experience and I cannot wait to see what lies in store. I hope to have a successful career in the pharmacy field, and be able to give back to my parents what they have given me after all of these years. It will also be interesting to see who remains in my life and which directions my friends take.
