Dear Brittany, Oh man, It is so hard to believe that you are now a senior. I can’t believe I am writing you a senior letter already (Cries). Now where to start? Well I could start with the first day of summer band camp. But no, that won’t do. We have to go back to middle school band. But wait! I can’t talk about that yet. Hmmmm where to start? Oh yeah! that right! PRESCHOOL!!!!!! Well, so… I guess we did go to the same preschool. Learning tree all the way in Torrance right? Yup still the same. What are those odds? That was a fun school. Anyway, moving on we have elementary school next. I would always remember seeing you at the playground with all your other friends. For some reason I remember you being a little violent, but that …show more content…
It was fun seeing you in elementary but I think we started getting to know one another better in middle school. Mr. Sisil was such a great teacher. It was always fun to be in his class, and he always knew how to make each student smile. I remember always being amazed by how many notes you knew and how pretty and loud your sound was all the way back since middle school. Marjorie and I would always be so excited to see you play. Plus there was that one time (I don't know if your remember) but Kevin invited us all to stay in a hotel and I remember you being there too, and we spend the whole day at California adventure. But I think you stayed in a different hotel. Oh Kevin, I'm going to miss him too. Why must you leave. I don't know how I will get through next year without all you seniors there. It will be so empty. Moving on, I reefer when I came to middle school night and I saw you perform for the very first …show more content…
Fresno was also very different this year too. I feel like the flutes really bonded together this year because we had that breakfast get together on Sunday, along with all the meetings that the junior and freshman flutes had, because we had to make your gifts, which I assume have been revealed to you by now. Oh man, I don’t think I’ve ever committed to band as much as I have this year, and I plan next year to commit even more. The Christmas parade was also super fun (which I literally just got back from right now), and all the ornaments and decorations were super cute. I do hope you like the scarfs we made, although it was a huge catastrophe, because we literally got together on Thursday night just to make those. Lets just say when I got home and started my homework, I didn’t finish until first period on Friday. But do not worry, because it was 110% worth it. I really liked the way that they came out, and I hope you will cherish them forever and ever. Next up I guess will be Disneyland, which I can’t really talk about yet, so Ill just talk about some final things that I want to say to
I am exceptionally grateful for this opportunity to possibly be a member of this very prestigious organization. Every day I work tremendously hard to be noticed by both other scholars and my teachers. Now that an opportunity has come, I am truly excited to demonstrate and live by the values of The National Junior Honors Society. I hope to further expose and show both my dedication and want to join arms with my community and my peers and I wish to continue to work with passion and fire to shape the world into a brighter place.
It is a tremendous honor to be considered for membership in the most prestigious Honor Society available at Wapato High School. It is even more grand to be able to work towards enrollment in the Society side by side with such an astoundingly gifted group of young men and women. I am only being considered for potential membership in the National Honors Society because I have demonstrated an exemplary academic attitude, and have proven this through the grades I have attained during the years I have spent in the Wapato School District and the fondness amongst my teachers I have achieved. There are also other characteristics besides good scholarship I must fill for membership in the Society, those being services I have done to benefit others in the community, leadership positions I have held, and an original and interesting demonstration of
I visited the Ronald McDonald House on September 15, to meet a family that was staying there because they had a very ill child. I was there to interview Mr. and Mrs. Davis who’s had their five-year-old son, John was at Children’s Mercy Hospital. The Davis family was there because John has leukemia and needed chemotherapy. When I first met John, I was at a loss for words. I saw a five-year-old boy that didn’t have any hair (like me) and was thin like a cable wire. I thought it was great that John got to say with his family on good days. What amazed me so much was his spirit and thrust for life. Because they had faith in their little boy getting better, his parents were very much the same. I asked them what made them so upbeat and positive. They told me that they were getting the best treatment around and being close to him everyday really helped. I didn’t quite understand what they meant and asked them to explain. They told me that staying at the RMH with their son meant everything to the whole family. Instead of being in a hospital bed, or hotel room, the Davis’s kept close and were able to do everything that a family would do. Such things included playing with toys, having meals together, taking walks, enjoying closeness with one’s family, and all in the comfort of a home.
Seniors, the last half of the year is hard, almost graduated, almost free from hours and hours of homework, but, don’t give up on your goals. Keep doing what you do best finish out strong. And fight for what you want and keep
Wow, three years have passed and the last day is just as long as the first. Three years of hard discipline and learning to get used to homework every night. Three years of standing on the front steps waiting for my parents and saying goodbye to my teachers. I never thought the goodbye might be permanent. 6th grade came and I was looking up at those giant 8th graders, and now I guess I’m one of them. 6th grade, and I was saying hello, and now 8th grade has come and it’s gone from introductions to goodbyes as my last days as a middle school student wind down.
Good evening. Some of you out there may not realize this but those of you who attended Suntime Middle School have been with this guy for the last seven years. I would like to ask you all, not just Suntime Middle School grads and who all else, to join me in thanking Mr. Weather for his patience and dedication to the success of our education over the years. We are the Class of 2000. The first graduating class of the new millennium. The past four years have been pretty wild. We started out as a bunch of rats in a small cage, but as time went by we learned and matured and became big rats in a new small cage, but in any case, the cage door is now opening; the handlers turning us wild things loose. As we leave "Where the Wild Things Are," home to some of the best cat fights, fist fights and food fights this side of the Cascades, I have a little surprise for all of you sitting in front of me here tonight in your caps and gowns … we ain’t seen nothing yet!
Extracurricular involvement through one's school, is a key and crucial factor in succeeding, while growing and developing during the early stages of a student's life. I am an actively involved and motivated student, for I participate in numerous school activities while consistently undertaking superb grades. Throughout my past two years in middle school, I have prospered in the following activities: Newspaper club, Cross Country, Track, Academic Olympics, the Ocean County Math League, Chorus, National Junior Honor Society, and finally, Student Council. In the duration of these activities, I have flourished and excelled greatly.
What an interesting four years it has been. I know I'm not alone when I think back to freshman year and remember the first time I stepped out onto our football field ... oh wait, never mind. And who could forget the very first time we stood in awe in the middle of our gymnasium on the Wildcat logo ... oh, scratch that, too. Seriously now, I know everyone remembers their first dip in the school swimming pool ... am I right?
I loved how he gave everyone in our homeroom nicknames, for instance, mine was “Higgy-Baby”. To this day I do not know how he came up with a name like that, but I know that while I was in his classroom, I was never called just Alyssa. While I learned many new and interesting things in his science class, I remember more of the life lessons that he taught during his homeroom. He was one of the teachers that was there for me when life got rough, he looked out for me during and outside of class. For me, knowing that I had him keeping an eye out for me made me feel safer going to school again.
Now I would like to take the time to thank everyone who has helped me get this far. First of all, thank you to all the teachers. None of us would be here without you always pushing our academic abilities to the fullest. Jessica Parker a.k.a. my partner in crime as Mr. Tri would refer to us. You made everyday coming to school worthwhile. Hillary Laswell, who would leave third period to go steal flowers from horticulture and give them to Mrs. Granillo with me. My brother Jeramie who always said, "If anyone is mean to you, I'll take care of it." My Mom, thank you for always believing in me and putting up with me when I was a real jerk.
...t, letting others know that your teenage years should be the best years of your life having fun, getting out there meeting new people and trying brand new things throughout life. I am here to express my talents and creativity in fashion from my point of view. This year is almost coming to an end, but I’m glad all my senior activities are almost here. I can honestly say that my senior year was difficult. When it came to expenses I wasn’t sure who to run to for help. Reasons being I come from a low income family so it was difficult to get money . My prom day is on May 27th 2011 and I can honestly say that I cant wait and I am very excited for it. I am proud to have made it this far in life so please give me the chance to enjoy this exciting opportunity. It would make my grandmother so proud of me and will also look good on my behalf as an idol for my younger siblings.
Dear Mr. Pettengill I am Veronica Rendon, parent of Robin Suazo, a student at Murrieta Valley High School. The purpose of this e-mail is to notify you that Robin Suazo has been subject to pervasive teacher-to-student harassment by Ms. Inouye. The harassment began I made her aware of my disagreement and all my previous requests to review my daughter's records were continuously ignored. Background information On Tuesday December 5, Ms. Inouye met and disciplined my child for a group project she had assigned to her class on October 17, which had been turned in by a student in my daughter's group the night of November 13, minutes before it was due.
Let me begin by saying that I am very honored to be addressing the County High School Class of 2012 as students of this institution for the last time. We've spent these last four years creating some serious memories: four years of chieftain power, leaking roofs, questionable Homecoming skits, and musical principals. Four years of good teachers, bad teachers, new teachers, old teachers. Four years of youth, music, growing up and breaking free. Four rubber chickens, four yearbooks, four ASB presidents and four chubby bunnies.
Valedictorian Speech Good evening fellow graduates, teachers, family members, friends, and distinguished guests. It is a tremendous honor to be the valedictorian of our graduating class. My job is to somehow be the voice of the entire graduating class, and take five minutes to say a few words on behalf of all 539 of us. Like most valedictorians, writing this speech was not an easy task for me. Not because I did not have anything to say, but because I was overwhelmed by how much I wanted to share with you all on this day. Tonight, we have one common purpose, to celebrate. We are here to congratulate, to look towards what the future holds for us, to wish each other well, and to, most importantly look back on our time spent here. So, I would like to start by saying 'well done' to my fellow graduates, who have all worked hard during the past several years to reach this milestone. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the graduating class for selecting me to speak here tonight. Ever since the news broke, many people, some who've I've never really met before, have come up to me and have wished me well. Perhaps this speech would be incomplete if I don’t say something to the teachers. On the behalf of my entire class, I would like to thank all my teachers: thank you. Thank you for teaching us, for leading us, for building us up as adults. I know that we have not given back to you the respect you deserve. I know that we have not told you how much we appreciate you taking time out of your schedules to help us. And I know that we have not said thank you for giving us a wonderful education. So, I hope that as I say thanks, you can forget our shortcomings and remember us for who we are and not from the mistakes we have made. ...
I opened my eyes at around 9:00 a.m.; I could not imagine that today was my graduation day. I was so excited to get ready for the day I had dreamt of for twelve years. I called my cousin Sandra to remind her to do my makeup because she is a makeup artist. I told her that I needed it to be flawless because I wanted this day to be complete in everyway. I took a shower to get ready for the hair salon because I was going to dye my hair red for the first time. I wanted a simple hairstyle; straight on top with curls at the bottom.
