Bailey Flaagan plans to attend Bismarck State College after graduation to study Pre-Radiologic Technology, with the goal of becoming a radiology technician.
Bailey describes herself as humorous, a quality that shines through both in and out of the classroom. Says she hopes to be remembered as someone who always worked hard, particularly in sports.
One of Bailey’s favorite high school memories was playing softball alongside her sister, cousin, and best friends, making the experience especially meaningful. Her dedication to the sport is evident in one of her proudest accomplishments - starting varsity softball as a seventh grader, which helped build her confidence and shape her into the player she is today.
Outside of school, Bailey enjoys playing golf, spending time at the lake, and being with friends and family.
Bailey says she most admires her parents, who work hard and consistently show their support by attending every sporting event for her and her sister.
A quote that resonates with her is from Carrie Underwood: “While you’re sitting around thinking about what you can’t change… you better make it count cause you can't get it back.” She values this message as a reminder to make the most of time because it goes by quickly.
If Bailey had a theme song that played every time she walked into a room, it would be “Can’t Turn You Down” by Jon Pardi.
Her favorite coaches are Gus and Savannah, who have always believed in her and encouraged her to succeed, both on and off the field. She also enjoys English class with Ms. Hurst, who makes each day engaging and fun.

Brandi Schock is an outgoing senior with a great sense of humor and a passion for staying active. After graduation, she plans to attend the University of North Dakota to study Physical Therapy, with the goal of becoming a sports physical therapist.
If Brandi had a theme song, it would be “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk” by Trace Adkins, showing off her fun and energetic personality. Her favorite quote, “Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it” by Charles R. Swindoll, reflects her belief in the power of attitude and perspective.
She admires her mom and dad the most for their hard work and dedication to providing for their family.
In her free time, Brandi enjoys playing volleyball, scrapbooking, reading, and traveling. She’s especially proud of making it to the national trap shooting competition.
Known for her humor, she believes that’s what she’ll be remembered for most. Her favorite teacher, Mr. Rose, made class fun and engaging, while her favorite class (study hall with Mrs. Forde) was always full of laughs and great stories.

Rylee Flaagan plans to attend Bismarck State College after graduation to study Pre-Radiologic Technology, with the goal of becoming a Radiologic Technologist.
Rylee describes herself as driven, a quality she has demonstrated throughout her time in school and athletics. One of her proudest accomplishments was starting varsity softball as a seventh grader, an opportunity that challenged her to grow and push herself to improve. Over the years, that experience helped her become a team captain and leader, and she now enjoys coaching younger softball players, hoping to inspire them and help them enjoy the sport just as much as she has.
One of Rylee’s favorite high school memories was a junior year trip to the state capital, a memorable experience shared with classmates. Outside of school, she enjoys golfing and spending time at the lake with friends and family.
Rylee says the people she admires most are her parents, who have always demonstrated the value of hard work and never missed an important moment in her life. Their support and dedication have played a major role in shaping who she is today.
A quote that has helped guide her is “All lights turned off can be turned on,” by Noah Kahan, a reminder that even during difficult times, there is always hope and the possibility for things to get better.
Her favorite teachers and coaches are Gus and Savannah, who have supported her through both good and challenging moments and helped shape her into the athlete and person she is today. In the classroom, her favorite subject is English, where she enjoys the engaging and fun environment created by Ms. Hurst.
If Rylee had a theme song that played every time she walked into a room, it would be “Courtesy of the Red, White, and Blue” by Toby Keith.
When she graduates from DPHS, Rylee hopes to be remembered as someone who was determined to achieve her goals and make the most of every opportunity.

Tyler Cree-Beglau plans to attend the University of North Dakota, where he will run track and field while majoring in Data Science. He hopes to pursue a career as a data scientist or data/research intelligence analyst.
Tyler describes himself in one word: prudent. Known for his dedication in athletics, he says he will likely be remembered most for his commitment to track and field. One of his proudest accomplishments was qualifying for the state track meet, a milestone that reflects the time and effort he has invested in the sport.
One of Tyler’s favorite high school memories was competing on the 4x800 relay team during his freshman year in 2023, an experience that helped shape his passion for running and teamwork.
Outside of the classroom, Tyler enjoys running, gaming, watching and playing basketball and football, and competing in track and field. His favorite class is math, which he enjoys because it comes naturally to him and connects with his interest in data science.
Tyler says the person he most admires is LeBron James, whose work ethic and success both on and off the court have made him a role model. His favorite teacher and coach is Mr. Kopff, whom Tyler describes as “a cool, genuine dude and a good coach.”
If Tyler had a theme song that played every time he walked into a room, it would be “The Man” by Aloe Blacc.
Tyler looks forward to continuing both his academic and athletic career at UND.
