Speech For A Farewell Speech

I’m Liz and I would like to start off by saying, “Good Morning”, and thank all of you for coming today to celebrate with the class of 2017 as today marks a huge milestone in our lives. For me specifically, I’m going to start off by thanking my family, friends, coaches, the faculty, and mentors (especially Oba); for supporting and guiding me through the good and bad times. Without you all, I don’t think I could’ve made it this far in my life. Secondly, I’d like to thank Konawaena for allowing me to compete in unpopular sports, excel in my classes, and grow into the person I am today. If you knew me freshman year, you’d remember that I could barely look people in the eye and was too meek to speak. Now, I’m not crushed with shyness, put myself out there and actually developed bonds with people that I will cherish forever. This school allowed me to meet amazing people and have unforgettable memories. Konawaena will hold a special place in my heart as it gave me a second chance to be who I truly am.

First off, I want to say thank you to my parents for supporting me. Mom, Dad, thank you for being there with me during difficult times. You support and understand me, this gives me the strength to continue fight through the challenges in life. Without you being here today and by my side, I would have given up. Next, I want to thank the administration. You have all contributed to making this school run smoothly but also have allowed us to have a good time. I, as many others, have enjoyed the monthly walks and fundraising activities, the cultural fashion show and the fun and exciting cultural festival with the live steel bad and African drummers. These are some experiences that some students have never been exposed to. Therefore, thank you for bringing new and exciting initiatives to PS/MS124. Mrs. Babb, you are a very loving and an easy person to talk to. You have made so many positive changes to PS124, one of which is allowing us middle schoolers to have student council. I would also like to thank my teachers, for sharing their knowledge. You have taken the time to explain assignments, make class interesting, challenge us beyond our knowledge, and inspire not just me, but all of us. I want to Mr. Heaton for granting me the position of secretary for National Junior Honor Society last year. This was a great opportunity and that allowed me to play a key role in the National Junior Honor

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.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my peers once again. Those of you who know me know I’m an entertainer. Well, you have all served as my audience throughout these four years, and you have motivated me in doing so. Your reactions to my personality and my creativity have been indicative and invaluable. I’ve learned more from all of you than from any teacher I’ve ever had. You taught me how to socialize. You’ve enlightened me on the facets of the human condition, the roots of happiness, and the dynamics of friendship. You have given me the life, the strength to keep me moving higher,

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

Furthermore, I do not regret a single part of this year, and even parts of eighth grade I was dreading, such as the National History Day project, turned out to be wonderful learning experiences that I genuinely enjoyed participating in. Thank you, teachers for continuing to find ways to encourage our further learning. Thank you, fellow classmates for helping me and making me smile. Thank you, Mrs. Arzola, Mrs. Chung, and all of the South Pointe staff for investing in so many new programs. And finally, thank you to the whole South Pointe community for supporting each other as we all continued to grow together and find out what our true passions are. I am both excited and extremely nervous for my journey into high school, and I can only hope to find another school as great as this one, that will continue to shape our lives just as South Pointe has. So, as we exit the grounds today and move onto high school, I can’t help but think that we will all reconvene here when our children will have the privilege of walking in our

Hello, fellow students, teachers, staff, and family members from Rio Rancho Cyber Academy. I didn’t find out I was to give this speech until Wednesday morning at 9:30, and that’s probably a good thing because I may have tried to arrange not to be salutatorian if I’d had advance notice. Consequently, this speech is probably not what you would expect; and I’m sure half my class would be much more comfortable standing here in front of you I only want to make two points, and I’m sure you will appreciate it when I say they will be quick. First, I want to encourage my class, myself included, to believe in ourselves and strive to reach our goals. Second, I think we all want to thank those who were instrumental

Good morning, my name is Jacqueline Heitmann and I am currently a 8th grader at St. Rose of Lima. As of tonight, we will be graduating into high school, a new step in our journey. Before I begin, I'd like to give big "Thank You" on behalf of my class to all of our faculty, staff, parents, sponsors, and everyone who was involved in our St. Rose experience. You may not have known it, but each and everyone of you has played a huge part in our daily lives, and we want you all to know that.

After 13 years, it’s all come to an end. No more assignments, no more tests, no more uniform, no more school. To the majority of you, this fact probably still hasn’t really hit home yet, and to be honest, I don’t think that I’ve fully grasped this fact either. That soon, we will be stepping out of the relative safety of TSS and entering into a harsh, and unforgiving new world. But as we -the graduating class of 2016- step out into this new world, it is not as though TSS has not prepared us for this day.

I would also like to express gratitude for the teachers, leaders, and faculty as well. They have all been so caring and generous with their time and so I thank you for taking the time to read this,

Firstly, I would like to thank everyone who took time out of their classes. I'd also like to thank the student representatives and teachers who helped set this up.

Good evening, thank you for having me here. I’m honored that I have been chosen to give my commencement speech and I’m glad to be here. First off, I’d like to thank the superintendent, also thanks to the administration, staff, the graduating class, and to all of you attended here today. The next generation, gathered here today, I’d like to tell you something very important that (I hope) you will consider sometime in the future. life is extremely difficult and challenging unless you work for your dreams and what you wish to achieve. Reach for the sky, because nothing is impossible unless you make it. I wish I had done certain things to my best ability, but that is in the past and time stops for no one. The future is what you should look forward

Good evening and congratulations to the NCPS class of 2017. I would like to say thank you for giving me this opportunity to speak, I'm 100% sure you will regret it.

Thank you so much for the offer, but I had foreseen the results and accepted the outcome. The news definitely was still very disheartening, especially after all my time and dedication to Relay this past year.

The vibrant green grass swayed ever so slightly in the gentle breeze. I ripped my tattered blue bonnet from my head and let my wavy, brown hair swirl in the joyful wind. My nearly nine-year-old sister looked at me with the uttermost disgust on her face. I mustered out the largest smirk possible and directed it at her sunburned face. As I turned to gaze at the completely clear blue sky, I heard her small feet pounding the soft wet earth as she presumably went to report my behavior to Ma and Pa. I rolled my eyes and ambled over to our modest wood house to wish my final farewells. That day, May 1, 1841, to be exact, was the beginning of the end.
