They arrived in golf carts, scooters, bikes, tandem bikes, riding lawn mowers, tractors and basically anything with wheels and sometimes a motor.
Bluffton High School seniors made their final grand entrance to school this morning (Friday, May 18).
Legend has it that the the BHS class of 1998 was the first to make this, now traditional event, the only way Bluffton seniors arrive at school on their last day as a student in the school system.
The final day of school for the other 11 grades is Friday, May 25. BHS commencement is Saturday, May 26.
