Graduating seniors from South Lakes and Herndon High School reunited before saying goodbye during a recent Buzz Aldrin Elementary School anniversary.
Held at the end of May, the event was a celebration to honor the school's 10-year anniversary in Reston.
When HHS senior Andrew Blum heard about the event, he decided it would be even more fun if 2005 seniors could get together one last time on their old stomping grounds.
With the help of senior Tara Mahoney and Mahoney's mother, a guidance counselor at Aldrin, the three planned a one-hour reunion.
Complete with pizza, cake and giveaways, 40 seniors came to not only able to reconnect with each other, but also see former teachers and principals.
Because the event was such a hit, school officials hope to continue it in the future for upcoming seniors.
