Color Guard Speeches

The flag waves majestically in the wind above me, or, that’s what I’ve been told it would be doing if the flagless practice pole in my hand was actually a color guard flag. Learning color guard is boring and, I couldn’t care less about marching slowly with the American flag. And, the dumb egoistic guy who demands we scream, “aye, P.O,” after everything he says, is not improving my mood. I want to be inside shooting an air rifle, but instead I’m loathing color guard. It is the millionth time I have gotten stuck with a task I didn’t want to do since I joined my Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (NJROTC) unit, and, quite frankly, I’m worn out.

Color Guard was created to inspire the participants to be creative. The program started with style and creativity. Every Guard starts out with an equal opportunity for success. Color Guard exist for and because of the members, staff, and fans. Guard performances inspire the members to achieve higher creativity and artistic standards. Participants treat everyone fairly, no matter their race, sexuallity, gender, or background. Members believe that the activity is for everyone, no matter who you are. Color Guard provides a chance to succeed and be

Around the world there is so racism so going on, people who are different are so getting target by the white man. We believe that racism is completing gone but it's not. Racism is coming back slowly as the years pass us. The only thing that we can do is to keep our bodies safe from all the danger that might happen. Ta-Nehisi Coates has been talking about keeping our bodies safe protected from the danger that happening around the world. People are getting targeted for being different or not being accepted for who they are as humans.

I am deeply honored to be among the exemplary students who are being considered for the National Honor Society. I must admit this is what I’ve been looking forward to since the start of my high school career. This organization is not only known for the student’s high gpas but the willing to set an example for others. Joining this prestigious society will present countless opportunities for me and allow me to grow as a person and do as much as I can for my fellow peers and community. I believe that leadership and character best complement each other because the scratch surface of a true leader, or look behind his or her her personality, you’ll find a good character. While scholarship and service complement each other because you must do your

“Cheerleading is my favorite high school memory”, said senior Molly Dudas. Many of the cheerleaders would agree, it is a privilege and an honor to be a part of the tradition and school spirit that makes STA. The cheerleaders revelle their favorite parts of the long season “This is my second year cheering for the sta basketball team and every season is always a blast! There’s never a dull moment cheering for the best team around with your friends. Can’t wait to try out again for the squad!”,said sophomore Carli Brent. The girls are always encouraging each other to keep cheering even in the worst of loses on and off the court. “Cheering at STA is like having a second family”, said senior Emily Huard. “Being apart of something so uplifting

Ever since I first heard, “You Always Hurt the One you Love”, I had fallen in love with it. The lyrics being very simply, saying “You always hurt the one you love, the one you shouldn’t hurt at all”. In the context of this story, I feel like this verse would

Changing who you are right now into who you want to be in the future is hard to comprehend. Especially as a high school student, our careers may still be uncertain. It’s undeniable though, that a big part of who you want to be is shaped by being in FBLA. Just being here at the state conference is evidence of the impact. Hello Illinois FBLA! I’m Neha Arun, and I’m running to be your FBLA state secretary. What comes to your mind when I say FBLA? Is it the conferences or the competitive events? Do you ever think about the business aspect of FBLA? The Business Leader part of FBLA often gets lost in the acronym. However, becoming who you want to be in the future is shaped by your business skills. What you learn by forming business partnerships will help you throughout your life, no matter

When there is someone special in your life, that is something you shouldn't take for granted. For example, in the book Fever 1793 by Anderson, the main character named Mattie lost a lot of her family. For example, one of the people that she lost was her grandfather. Her grandfather was that special person to Mattie. After this had happened, she had no one to turn to until she met up with her friend Eliza again. Eliza helped Mattie survive by taking her to the coffeehouse and giving her food and helping her with things she was doing. If Mattie would not have found Eliza when she did, she probably would’ve been lost the

In life, people can gain friends quickly, but what no one talks about is that they can lose them just as fast. I learned how quickly a friendship can begin and end about two years ago. In August of 2013 a girl named Moriah Ebron was deemed my best friend. She lived in Delaware while I was all the way in West Virginia. That was a small challenge, but we made it work. We were able to visit each other and have an amazing friendship, but suddenly, something went terribly wrong. Never had I realized how fast friendships can end until I became friends with Moriah Ebron. This is an epic story of friendships and trials as well as love and hate. This is all about how I gained and lost a best friend in the same amount of time, and how that shaped me as a person.

On the morning of Saturday, October 31st, we had cheer practice. Ms. Perez had brought up the idea of captains for this year's cheer team. All of us thought it was a good idea. So she decided that we would vote today. We were all kind of surprised we were doing it right here and right now. We got to thinking about it and we decided it was smart to do it now because then it would be easier just to get it done and over with.

Color guard is an activity you participate in the marching band and spinning flags, rifles, and sabers while dancing as well. The activity color guard has been around for many years, but still is not very common to most people. If you went around asking a survey of who knew what color guard truly was, the numbers would most likely be pretty low. I first auditioned for color guard my freshman year of high school with roughly thirty girls. They were only taking twenty-two, out of the thirty girls. The returning members took up eighteen out of the thirty girls so there were truly only four spots available and twelve girls wanted their spots. I auditioned and gave it my all, and they pulled my number and I was officially a part of the Moon Area Color Guard.

“Stay in your toaster!” With every move, the flag must stay right in front of our body and right behind our backs. This one simple rule is embedded in every guard girl’s mind. Color guard requires to do various actions at once. For instance, we must remember the sequence of the choreography, march in step, find the right drill spot, and smile. One simple mistake with a flag allows all eyes on you. As the guard girls performs with flags, there’s three different types of girls on the field. There is the hard worker, the slacker, and the hardworker and the slacker combined.

It was an honor to watch State Trooper Stephen Vincent's funeral procession. There were hundreds of law enforcement vehicles from all over the state and from many other states. Several of the officers that passed thanked us for being there! We thank them for serving and protecting. We are also thankful for the safety through the years of the Louisiana State Troopers that are in our family. Wendell Fontenot and Bobby Osborn.

I remember that it hurt, looking at her hurt. A beautiful line, no doubt, but I mustn’t take credit. I remember seeing her at her best. I remember telling myself that she would get better. I remember seeing what she would post on Facebook and pretending that I thought she wasn’t slowly killing herself. I remember seeing the blades sitting on her desk and throwing them in the trashcan and acting like they didn’t hold any significance, only to repeat the process the next weekend. I remember hearing her stories about falling out of that damned tree and telling myself, “Oh yeah. Those scars could totally be scrapes from the tree bark.” I remember ignoring the brokenness of her smile. I remember not doing anything about it, and I remember foolishly telling myself that it was all in my head.
