Graduation Speech: What It Was Like To Attend Jeffersonville High School

Good morning Paige! Hope you’re well; I greatly appreciate you reaching out to me. Sadly, this is not a surprise to me, or even most of the residents who feel exactly as you do. Many folks moved to Folsom with the optimistic dream of keeping Folsom the “ best little town” by Sacramento. Unfortunately, there are folks who are politically implanted in Folsom’s city government who feel bigger is better. Growing up in Folsom and graduating Folsom High, I got to experience all the amenities Folsom was known for like our parks, schools and small town charm and friendliness. Our elected official made big promises to get the development plans pushed through unbeknownst to most; they were pushing the “grow for growths” sake mentality we see today. This has been twenty years in the making starting with then Mayor Bob Holderness (who brought the light rail and is now SO50 landowners primary advisor) and continued by Miklos, Howell Starsky

So … snaps fingers … wow! This is a lot of people. Well, first off, congratulations everyone; you all made it this far. Hopefully you will be able to make through this speech. According to page ten of the Chisago Lakes High School Student Handbook, all of you have earned at least 28 credits in a variety of disciplines throughout the last four years. And for those English nerds out there, I do have a properly formatted works cited page if you would like to fact-check me. Don’t worry.

High school is supposed to be the place where you have fun and a time in your life you’re supposed to enjoy. Movies often trick you into believing that high school is an amazing time in your life and there is nothing but parties and fun. In Bring it on, they portrayed the fun and exciting part of high school cheer-leading, however they intentionally leave out the tough times high school students’ face in school and in their practices. In other popular movies, such as High School Musical the students have no pressures other than the next basketball game. In reality, this doesn 't happen. The constant pressure is affected by the grade level you are in. In high school, students can be classified based on the pressures that are faced in each grade level into the categories of freshman, sophomores/juniors, and seniors. I am here to help you make your high school experience less stressful.

Education, teachers, family, friends, and honored guests. It is my pleasure and honor to be speaking on the behalf of the Carl Sandburg Middle School 2018 graduating class. To my fellow graduates, I cannot believe that middle school is already over. It seems just like a very short dream; it seems like yesterday we were stepping into the building for the very first time as 6th graders. I could not have asked for a better group of peers to leave middle school with. From being cooped up in a room all morning during NJSLA-S testing together and going a little crazy, to experiencing the beautiful, unlimited wilderness that we saw on the Fairview trip, I would not have any of the amazing memories I have without you guys. Eleanor Roosevelt said “the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” If every student here believes in the beauty of their dreams, and does everything in their power to achieve them while seeing the beauty in them, what this class will do in the future will be absolutely breathtaking.

Welcome to Mt. Edgecumbe High School! Coming here, far away from home may be nerve-racking, but you just got accepted to one of the best schools in Alaska. Not everyone who applied got accepted, which is why you shouldn’t take this opportunity for granted. Attending MEHS, Mount Edgecumbe High School, is way different from being at home; for instance, you’re not living with your parents anymore and you have to teach yourself to be independent. This may seem frightening, but by coming here you can get a better education than from where you live, which is why I encourage you to stay all four years. Since you’re a MEHS Brave now, I am going to tell you some things that I personally like and dislike about MEHS. I will also tell you what to expect while you’re

During the last three years of my attendance here at Mt. Edgecumbe High School, I could not think of a teacher who has influenced me more than yourself. You’ve taught me to not only appreciate music, but to appreciate life. I’ve spent a total of four semesters in your Choir class and one semester in your Accounting class. We’ve traveled to two music festivals through Choir class, which are two of my most memorable experiences here in MEHS. I’ve also been apart of the MEHS award-winning Radio Club under your supervision. You’ve certainly witnessed my development as a maturing adult. It would be an honor to have a letter of recommendation from a teacher like yourself. Thank you for making my high school years enjoyable. If you choose to write

Hello Mrs. Patterson it is Noemi. Yesterday was my first official full week of school and it is pretty neat so far. Betty H Fairfax High school is the name where I am attending now. Also I have not taken any pictures yet because my camera is not all that great and I get nervous just stopping in the middle of all the students to take a photo. Anyways I haven't really made friends (like one really) but I have made many acquaintances! I mean I guess that's good because they will probably turn into my friends later on who knows. Additionally, as much as it pains me to say, I will not be doing track and field over here because my parents want me to get a job. So of course I will be sending back your money thank you very much for that again! Anyways they want me to get a job because I got accepted into ASU and it is expensive

Thomas Jefferson High School welcomes a new addition to the English department, Jennifer Stephenson. Stephenson, who student taught with former English teacher and current CCT teacher, Matthew Santambrogio, now teaches Honors Introduction to Literature (Intro to Lit) and Composition and AP Language and Composition. “Ms. Stephenson definitely has a passion about the subject,” commented Santambrogio, “she is really involved and she is really cognizant of what she is teaching.”

Hello Jodie,My name is Kyle McKenna I am currently grade 10 and attending Latrobe High School.

The Morehead State University Honors Program opens the door to many great opportunities which include, but are not limited to, a semester-long internship with a legislator in Frankfort, a summer research program for aspiring physicians and dentists, and a year-long volunteering experience working with children in an after school program. Although all of these would allow me to develop many new skills, along with relationships across our great commonwealth, I feel as if the summer research program for aspiring physicians and dentists would be the best fit for me. As an aspiring physician, I believe that this experience would allow me to challenge myself with new concepts that will be critical to my success in medical school, as well as allowing me to better my research skills. This program would assist me unbelievably as I transition into my future.

Welcome to Northwood Middle School- a place to successfully prepare all students for their futures! Here, you can be educated in a good working environment, but also partake in exciting activities such as clubs of all types, and exciting pep assemblies. However, this might seem strange but Northwood is also quite similar to a cell!

I once attended Bullen myself, and while the experience felt monumentally difficult at the time, it allowed me to understand the impact that both negative and positive school experiences can have on a child’s future. Like many middle school students, I not only struggled within the school environment, but also faced difficulties in my home life which contributed to the issues I encountered at school. I was shy and anxious about fitting in with my peers and was bullied throughout 6th and 7th grade. By 8th grade, on average I was only attending school twice a week to pick up and drop off assignments. The only reason I didn’t drop out during that school year were a select number of

For once, the words “Class of 2017” does not sound foreign. As graduation is quickly approaching, it is impossible to escape the exciting chatter about plans for the summer and ultimately starting college. I have been lucky enough to get to know classmates that are going to University of North Carolina, University of California Los Angeles, and Dartmouth. It seems that everyone shares a common goal: to get as far away from York as possible.

Imagine a world without discrimination, without hate crimes, and without racial targeting. It's a shame we have it in this world and in our schools, but there's a way to end it in the future, and it starts with our students. It starts with an education, and we can provide that education in our school. A racial appropriation class must be required for East Jordan Middle High School because it will teach our history, address our present, and prepare for our future racial issues.

In a world where fantasy becomes reality there is nothing left but one girl, one school, and one way out. Now that girl is me, Shelby Mayo, that school is Decatur High School in Decatur Alabama, now I know what you’re thinking... what can one girl do to save herself from thousands of flesh eating zombies… I’ll tell you it’s quite simple actually. Step 1. Be badass and that’s right bring a sword because guns will run out of bullets. Step 2. Bring a map of the school that you have to survive in. Step 3. bring comfortable clothes that you wouldn’t mind getting dirty (obviously), step 4. now stay with me because this one isn’t really a physical thing, but bring a heart of steel because you’ll need it and step 5. bring a grenade in case all else
