Orcas High School Senior Class of 2015 has the first honor of painting the new Senior Barn. For longer than some can remember, the senior classes have, at the start of the school year each Autumn, painted, and decorated, and claimed as their own the older barn seen in the background in the picture above and now historically pictured below.

The Class of 2014 was the last class to paint that leaning, tipsy old barn which had become a safety hazard. The new barn, just south of the “saggy old” barn, was built this spring.
