3:00pm today. Remember: Make sure your speech is like a narrative. It tells a story about the experiences of the class over the last two years. Make sure to also touch on where you are going (i.e., high school). Talk to you later. And by the way, the speech is coming along great! Let’s get it done by tonight. Bye for now 1: Good morning and welcome fellow graduates, members of the John Buchan faculty, alumni, family, and friends to our 2017 Graduation Ceremony. On behalf of the graduating
time. It's a tough business speaking at graduation. When the Vice President spoke this year at Notre Dame University, students walked out on him. A couple weeks ago in California, students protested the Dalai Lama when he came to speak. These are famous people. The students here at Newfane Senior High decided to play it safe and invite somebody with a lower profile. Here I am. Where are the protest signs? It is considered an honor to give a graduation speech. But I can assure you, there is no greater
Sasenarine Tomby Graduation Speech 2011 Good afternoon [name of members of the head table], teachers, parents, students, fellow graduates and distinguished guests. I must first and foremost thank God for this blessing and honor to stand before you today as Valedictorian of the Class of 2011. Yet, today is not only my day to shine. Every graduate present here is deserving of high praise and recognition and I would like to congratulate each of you on reaching this milestone in life. I
My Graduation A Graduation ceremony is one of the major steps in life, it marks the start of new changes in our lives. It ushers us into growing up and be responsible for our actions. It marks a new dawn of embracing life experiences, cultivation of good work ethics and eventually culminates in chasing our dreams. On my graduation day, I woke up to the sweet aroma of the breakfast my sister was making. I sat down to eat when the food was ready. It took me about 2 hours to finish
Good Morning, parents, friends, and last but not least to my fellow Graduates of Monroe High School. It is an honor to stand before you all to deliver this speech for such a special occasion. To the graduates, today is a very bittersweet moment for us all, as this ceremony marks the transition from High School to college, the military, or the job industry. Let me begin by saying I am extremely proud of the growth we have made as a class from our freshman year until this point. Over the course of
Ladies, gentlemen, parents, friends, family, staff, fellow students: Instead of taking up more time and reading my speech, it is available to you at http://www.olen’s_speech.com. Thank you. No, just kidding. But seriously folks... Today we are gathered here to celebrate our graduation from 12 long years of schooling. The education granted to us has been a privilege. One so graciously given to us by the citizens of our state, by our community, and by our parents. Today would not be
you might ever sit through. Most of us, though, and I regret that I am in this group, will sit through many more ceremonies -- ceremonies longer and more tedious that this or anything else you can imagine. If you think this is bad, try a college graduation. Think, that is, attend a wedding. And, if just for a moment you think that that is bad, just be thankful you have never attended or will attend a Bar Mitzvah. The only ceremony I think anybody would truly enjoy attending is a funeral. But, only
writing papers, doing homework, taking an occasional pop quiz, and of course taking countless exams, it is that time that we all anticipate…Graduation! Purpose Statement: Since the majority of us are seniors, and graduation is a little less than a month away, I am going to provide you with some historical background information and some fun facts about graduation in order to make the occasion even more meaningful than it already is. Road Map: Most of you could probably agree that high school was
the senior class president. A few weeks ago, I was told that I would be speaking at graduation. I was asked to put together a speech for tonight -- I've become experienced at speech writing over the past couple of weeks. The speech that you are hearing is the fourth one I've written, the recycle bin needs to be emptied at home and I need a new highlighter. Thank you, Mr. Mier, you get an "A+" for your help as my speech teacher but an "F" for saving trees. Tonight I'd like to talk to three groups
Good evening everyone. My name is Toyota Moko, and I am an international student from Japan. As the first-ever international student speaker on commencement, I am very honored to be here tonight to be given this opportunity to speak on behalf of the graduating class of the 2003. Born and grew up in Tokyo where speaking English was absolutely absent in my eighteen years of life, one day the life-changing experience came to me. When I was fifteen-years-old, the summer of 1998, I came to America
