The Class of 2017 gifted a lion statue last spring to Ludlow High School, which will be spray painted each year by the Battle of Classes champions.

The winning class will paint the lion their class color. This year, the seniors are blue, juniors red, sophomores green, and freshman purple.

Sophomore Lara Cadete says “this year I want to participate more in the activities they have, and I hope my class wins this year.”
