As the 2025-2026 school year starts at Hidden Valley High School, a cherished and thrilling tradition is beginning among the seniors called Senior assassin. This event helps unite the senior class as their high school journey comes to an end. It fosters community, quick thinking, and creates memories that will last a lifetime.
Senior assassin is a straightforward game with simple rules, but it can be quite tough and often requires a lot of strategic creativity. Participants pay a small entry fee and receive a target to eliminate each week. You need to eliminate your target while avoiding being eliminated yourself. In this game, the only way to stay safe is by wearing swim goggles or floaties. The aim is to be the last person standing and win the cash prize.
