It's become an annual tradition for graduating seniors at RHS.

This year, a big dance number is on tap to start the video and stalwarts Connor Dowling and John Murolo are nervous that they won't get the call.

With a little help from a legendary coach, they do just fine and start off this year's senior send-off video: Bruno Mars' "Uptown Funk."

Watch all the way through for a great finale, a final goodbye and some bloopers.

Rothstein, a social studies teacher at Rye High, was named assistant principal at Pelham Memorial High School earlier this month. That job begins on July 1.

Rothstein has taught Advanced Placement U.S. history, global history, economics and participation in government. Fluent in French, he also served as adviser to the high school’s Garnet Insider, which produces videos that highlight students and teachers in the school community. He coached soccer and was adviser to the student council, debate team, improv club, and the outdoor education club. In 2013, he received the Distinguished Service Award at Rye High.
