The Kindergarten/Senior Buddy tradition started almost 23 years ago, in 1999. The special bond between these students grows strong throughout the year, as they participate in many fun events. One of those events is Senior walk. Senior walk is one the most special traditions at Saint James. It is when the Seniors and their Buddies walk from the elementary school to the highschool. During the walk seniors are able to go back and remember all of the great memories they have made at Saint James and the kindergartners are able to see what the future holds for them. The seniors and their buddies walk hand in hand the whole way. This moment on the quad is an amazing way to end the year with their buddies and surrounded by their STJ family.
