Getting to know someone with a two-year grade difference can be challenging. Some conversations can get dry, but Louisville had a solution! At each table, sheets of paper with creative icebreaker questions lessened the need to be an extrovert for both juniors and freshmen. The questions ranged from “who is your celebrity crush?” to “what is your dream vacation?”. 

Other than providing conversation starters and opportunities for many laughs, Louisville also had pastas, salads and drinks for lunch. The best was definitely saved for last as our Louisville sisters rushed to finish their meals to get first pick at a variety of desserts, including many flavors of cupcakes, cookies and brownies.

Once everyone was settled down and enjoying their desserts, the junior class council and Louisville staff gave speeches describing the beauty,  connection and support provided by the sisterhood of Louisville. Since Louisville’s first ever Big Sister/Little Sister Luncheon, the tradition has returned every year. As both grades stood, the juniors followed principal Dr. Aguilar in making an oath to support, teach and bond with their little sisters for the next two years of their high school career. During this oath, each junior placed the first pin from Louisville on her little sister’s blazer: the angel pin.
