We also had a senior lot.
One of our traditions was on the first day of school the ENTIRE school had an assembly first thing in the morning. I went to a small, private school so for us this was everyone from Pre-K to 12th grade plus all faculty members. Our headmaster would give a boring speech about the new school year. At the end the seniors were each introduced in terms of how long they had been attending the school. Then we lined up along the walkway in the same order and shook every person's hand from 11th grade on down, including faculty again.
We also would have a winter carnival the week before winter break. The entiree week was like spirit week. Each grade would have a color and the seniors would ALWAYS be the blue team. This was because on color day you could wear blue jeans (a BIG thing when you have a dress code)
Other high school traditions:
1. when you were a senior being able to NOT be in school when you didn't have a class.
2. Off campus priviledges for juniors and seniors
3. The junior college tour
4. The senior trip (LOTS and LOTS of fun, we went to NYC for mine)
