Members of the Darlington Community gathered together in the A.J. Huffman (’67) Memorial Athletic Center to celebrate the start of the 111th school year at Opening Convocation in August. With a processional that illustrates the diversity of our community and customs like the ringing of the historic school bell, the program is always full of tradition while also celebrating the year ahead. This year’s ceremony, which involved students of all ages, was extra special as it marked the beginning of our year-long celebration of the 100th anniversary of Darlington’s Honor Code, which was founded by students in 1915 and remains an integral part of our school culture today.
