Graduation Speech : School District

I have been going to school since I was four years old and, that means that I have been attending school twenty to twenty two years, including kindergarten, middle school, high school and now college. As every student, I had my ups and downs in school; I had some failures and some successes. One of the failures that affected me the most and that I will always remember was the time that I was in high school during my junior year. I failed almost all my classes and, I only passed two classes and with a C. In the other hand I had some really good success. The most recent one and the one that I am still happy about is getting my Family Development Credential. We learn from our mistakes and also from our successes, these two times in my life

On February 11th, 2016 I attended the Houston Independent School District’s (HISD) school board meeting. I received a first-hand experience of how educational decisions are made and I also witnessed all the intricacies of the process. An article entitled Understanding Your School Board states that “school boards are entrusted by the public to translate the needs of students into policies, plans, and goals that will be supported by the community” (www.tasb.org). In other words, the board and its members are responsible for making and enforcing essential decisions for the school district. They are ultimately a strong determining factor for their students’ academic success.

The career I have chosen to pursue is a Secondary School Teacher. It is a challenging and creative career to have and is a career that helps “prepare students for life after graduation. They teach academic lessons and various skills that students will need to attend college and to enter the job market” (“Bureau of Labor Statistics”). To me preparing students for the future is a huge responsibility, that I would be willing to take on. Not only is it a high school teacher’s job to help a student learn and understand important high school subjects, like math, science, english, or whatever else, but it is their job to help shape the minds of the the world’s next generation of passionate and promising young adults.

Hello everyone! My name's Ally Ward and I'm a senior at South Stanly High School. Currently I'm taking CCP courses with SCC, so that I'll have two years under my belt when I start college.

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.

Mr. Riff, esteemed teachers and staffs, dearest parents and grandparents, guests, fellow graduates, relatives, friends, ladies, and gentlemen, good morning!

“Say cheese!” the photographer shouted. I have always dreaded those words because in “saying cheese” it would mean to show my twisted teethe. I am Olga Monic Gamboa a senior at United South High School, vice president of National Honor Society, vice president of LULAC, and officer for many other clubs. I am very active in my community and my school, which lead me to be embarrassed to show my teeth. Every time I speak at a meeting or a presentation I am afraid they are just staring at my teeth or falling asleep with the non facial expression I put on. I can’t smile while knowing that a tooth is to forward and a tooth is hidden in the back. In a year I will be going to college and I need to look professional and be confident in my smile. A smile

Hello, I am Sean Hart, I am a 12th grade student here on behalf of Legacy High School.

Good afternoon my fellow classmates thank you for joining me on this journey through life. I thought there would be nothing more appropriate than to share twelve things I’ve learned over the twelve years here at Putnam city. So number 1 was in first grade I learned to always listen to your teacher.

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.

Welcome all to the graduation of the Hadley 8th grade class this year. I want to begin by saying a big congrats to the graduating students of 2017 for making it through all the bumps and swerves in this winding road we have had in these past three years. As I begin, the thoughts run through my head of how our time here had one terrifying beginning, memorable end, and a middle consisting of lots of late nights, rushed mornings,different kinds of distractions, and tests many forgot to study for. Every year I spent here I gained a little more independence, and became all that much closer to who I am today. So today we are celebrating us, and all the milestones we have achieved in our adventure here at Hadley Jr. High.

Tri-County School Corporation, centered in Wolcott, IN, is exactly what one would expect from a small, rural school. Class sizes are small, students know the names of everyone in their grade level, and it’s not uncommon for teachers to also teach the nieces, nephews, and even children of their former students. And, like most small schools in Indiana, Tri-County is entrenched in the crisis that is the Hoosier education system.

Who here has attended Vaughn since elementary school? Do you remember how every morning on student would lead the pledge of allegiance to the entire school. Well, I was that kid once - I didn 't want to do it, but my class nominated me so I have no choice. That day, I came late to school that day, and I didn 't even eat breakfast; I just ran through the cafeteria and went into a full-on Sprint toward the stage. There were already the other two kids holding the flag of the United States when I got on the stage and Mr. Palma hands me the mic and says, “ Don 't be nervous.” (As if that is really going to calm me down.) I walk up to the center of the stage and say, “ Put your right hand over your heart,” and everyone proceeds to do so. My
