Tarpon Springs yearbook adviser retiring after 31 years

Written by Evan Blackwell, CJE

The Yearbooks Blog would like to send out congratulations and good luck wishes to adviser Kenneth Henderson from Florida’s Tarpon Springs High School, who is retiring this year after 31 years as a yearbook adviser.

This article from the St. Petersburg Times recaps some of Henderson’s career highlights, and quotes some of his former students on the impact Henderson made on their life.

Henderson has a special relationship with Tarpon Springs High, where he was also a student. As he told the Times, leaving his job as an adviser has been emotional.

“I’m attached to my students,” Henderson said. “Students are like my family. I overall had a great relationship with the majority of the students and great relationships with some of the teachers. Tarpon High is our family.”
