Graduation Speech Essay

First off I would like to congratulate everyone for making it this far. I would like to thank my classmates, my friends, and my family. I especially want to thank our teachers, for always supporting and encouraging us. If it weren’t for the people who support us daily, we would not be where we are today. I would like everyone to turn to their families, and teachers to thank them for all that they have done for us.

As I stand before you all at the end of our senior year, giving this speech, let’s reminisce in some of our memorable pasts. Looking back, we’ve made many great memories in the midst of earning an

As the first person in my family to graduate from college, I am proud and happy that I

Hello everyone! Thank you for attending our graduation. We’re all glad you could make it.

We have made it this far. Graduating from Lincoln School is an important turning point in our lives. It’s an accomplishment itself! Next year, we’ll be in high

I am about to walk across the stage of graduation at the University of Tennessee. Thoughts are racing through my head, as I am getting closer to hearing my name being called.

Dearly beloved we are gathered here today for a thing called life, well actually it's just a milestone in our lives called Graduation. Class of 2016, we made it to this day we never thought would ever get here, congratulations. We all know I hate talking in front of large crowds but then again I'm nowhere near being too shy for this, so sorry if I mess up but I'll try my best. In a normal ol’ graduation speeches they talk about how our future's going to be “BIG and bright” and to” follow dreams”. Well that is all great advice but I want to be a little different sense y'all have already heard these things before. So here I go, First I would like to thank all our parents for having to deal with us while we went through the “Teenage” and the drama that comes along with high school.

Before I start my speech I’d like to congratulate my fellow classmates on graduating. I would also like to thank everyone who came to be here for me today & who have supported me along the way. Lastly, I would like to thank my teacher Mrs. Navarro for being such a great educator, but more than that, a friend.

Fellow Class of 2016, we did it! I never imagined that this day would come as quickly as it did. It seemed like only weeks ago that I was just a freshman trying to figure out how exactly I could get to the fourth floor, because a senior told me in full confidence that that was where my class was, and being extremely confused and stupid when I found out that there was no such thing. Getting to this day has been a crazy trip for me. Honestly, I never thought that I would make it to this point; with a diploma in the rearview mirror and the opportunity to pursue whatever I wanted ahead of me. A big chunk of my family never made it past 10th grade, so I feel very blessed to be standing here among my fellow peers right now. My entire life had been influenced profoundly by choices I never made for myself, such as growing up the way I had, and being forced into Mr. Burrows’ engineering class, and visiting Haiti has led me to my latest assertion; that I would become an architect and join the Peace Corps. To truly understand why I made this decision I have to explain the “choices” that were previously mentioned.

Getting to walk down the stage to receive my diploma, surrounded by my magnificent peers. We’ve all worked so hard to get here. It’s been nothing short

I just want to say congratulation that you are a one step closer to finish school, I can share the same opinion I am exited and nervous to finish this journey. I can say I had every awesome experience here in my college years, in the way that I didn’t had in mind to go to college because I was more in to the money and working that attending to school for a better opportunity. I can add that I am very proud of myself and at the same time is hard to believed that I am two-steps closer to reach my goal of getting a diploma.

Good evening fellow classmates and community. Isn’t it crazy how in a few short minutes we will walk up to the stage and receive our diplomas? We have spent approximately 14 long years in school for this moment and it all went by so quickly. I remember how just yesterday I walked into my kindergarten class that smelled like hand sanitizer and crayons. But here we are… time flew by so quickly and we accomplished many and these accomplishments would have not been possible without the help of many.

The moment I knew I wanted to pursue a scientific degree was when I started high school. I tested high on my science tests in middle school so I enrolled in the honors biology class. The man who taught biology was known to be a bit strict, but I soon found out he would be one of my many inspirations. He didn't just teach you, he made sure you knew exactly what you were talking about. He made sure you could stand in front of a group of people and lecture them on cell division, meiosis and mitosis, human anatomy, and so much more. As I studied for his tests, I found myself making connections to my previous knowledge. I found myself wanting to know as much about biology as I could. That led me to taking almost every class he taught. I found my

Now on behalf of all of us graduating seniors, I'd like to thank all of the parents for all of the
