the farewell party

The weather cleared up and me, along with my entire class and teachers, got to enjoy a beautiful ceremony. Lining up we started to proceed out to the football stadium from the gymnasium, my mind would not stop thinking. I just could not stop remembering what it took for me to get to this day. The stress that I endured studying for the SAT, filling out my applications and most importantly, perfecting my essay. The idea that I was not going to be living in this beautiful town I have spent my life in, brought a flood of emotions. Thoughts of my friends not being by my side next year made me feel as if I was sinking into a deep hole; this place, this town has had so much to offer to me. The past two years that I had spent in this place were the most emotional and exciting times of my life. I knew even though I was not going to be waking up in my familiar place anymore, I would be waking up in what was to become my new familiar place. I knew that even though my friends would not physically be there with me every day, that they would be there when I called them. If it were not for all of the people I have met along the way, I do not think I would have ended up where I am today. It just is a common thought for whenever I get sad about everything ending, I remind myself that there is a new beginning coming and it is going to be amazing. The place that I have spent my whole life

At this stage the grieving survivors cut each tie and relinquish the bonds that link them to the deceased. Frost depicts that the grieving will have to come to terms with the many life changes that may follow the boys death yet there is utter helplessness that life must go on as they turn away to their affairs.

After the graduation ceremony ended, my fellow graduates and I cheered for a couple minutes as we were walking back to our homeroom class to return the graduation gown and cap back to our homeroom teacher. We then had our pictures taken with our families, our teachers, and of course, our colleagues! Looking back, I had a great graduation ceremony with my fellow classmates and our last time all together as a class was a memorable day that I had which was our graduation on June 5,

Nothing makes me happier then acting like an actually mother to you all even though way more then half of you in this room are older then me. Baking for you all, giving out advice, and my favorite cleaning up after your parties (mostly when I am still hammered and at the party) brings nothing more to my face then a smile. Seeing you all truly happy is what makes me happy. In life, there are few moments better than those that are filled with absolute, unequivocal happiness and with no doubt I feel like being your fraternities sweetheart will be a moment I will always cherish. I would like to say one last thank you, thank you to the vertex, 519, Hammond, terrace, mill manor, titty city, campus, la Jolla, the dean and to every location I have made the best memories at. I am signing out by saying on last thing, thank you to the DKE’s who have encouraged me to black out, to the DKE’s who have blacked out with me, and to all of the DKEs who have helped me in a black out. Thank you boys for being my sweethearts just like I hope to be

Arrayed in semi-formal attire students attended the 13th “Farewell Dance”, which was held in the Christopher Columbus Middle School gym. Each year a different theme is used and this year’s was “Circus”. The 278 member graduating class passed by a colorful, surreal entry of oversized lollipops before descending into the Big Top area.

Amid this lesson, students will be set in pre-composed gatherings of two. The grouping will be based on the student's pre-test score. The thought is to put a high scoring student with a low scoring student, and together they will work cooperatively. My justification for putting students in this design is very basic. The student who didn't score as well on the pre-test will get assistance from their peer who did. The pair will read and finish their specific role over Franklin Roosevelt's March 9, 1937 Fireside Chat about reorganizing the Supreme Court. The student who scored higher on the pre-test will provide research of the document and read it so everyone can hear. While the student who scored lower on the pre-test will represent what is

First, and of the uttermost importance is the fact that all of the students have made intentions for the 8th Grade advancement. Students have already procured exquisite dresses and stylish suits. A great deal of time and strenuous effort has been put into the 8th Grade advancement by us 8th Graders. If the advancement is canceled, our time and endeavor will have been used for no reason other than an arbitrary

We are all leaving the nest and flying in different directions. Some of us will move on to a school just across campus, while others will leave to a school thirty minutes away from here. I know we are all anxious and excited to be leaving the building that some of us have been practically living in since kindergarten. I have created so many memorable moments here that I will never forget. Today, I ask you to look around you. Who do see before you? I see parents that have worked hard to give us the opportunity to learn and are now so proud of our growth. I see teachers who have taught us so much more that just Algebra or English. Then, I see us, the formal leaders of the school. We are known as the eight graders, but I see us as a giant 40 person family. We are united by the common factor of our graduation. So today as we receive our much-coveted diplomas in our navy cap and gowns, I ask you to indulge in these last following days with your fellow

Lastly the final overnight trip the seniors took with the juniors was the time of our lives, we enjoyed it so much, there was a lot of laughs and personalities in everyone. We all enjoyed ourselves with each others presence before us seniors graduate and our band teachers were so incredible for planning this trip and having a good time with us. Sad to leave, will miss each and everyone of the students in band and our band teachers. Will never forget the good times we’ve had and memories we’ve

"Things end, but memories last forever." My weekend was sure to prove that. Even though the seniors of 2016 are in readiness to graduate we will most definitely miss these times consumed together. On top of my roof, we sat chattering about what we are going to do after senior year. We discussed about how May 21, 2016, would arrive way before we wanted it to come upon us; once that day comes, we will realize only then that we might never see everyone out of our class again. As we all were articulating about how college will be contrary, how we will study so much more, and how tough it really might be; we promised to never drift apart from the best friends that we are. Finally, two a.m. crept up on us, and we knew it was time to get some

Tonight is a special night as twelve years of schooling comes to an end, and with that, we will face the real word and realise our destiny. We cannot predict what is around the corner but as turn the page on the next chapter of our lives into adulthood we will take with us what we have learned from our past. Most importantly the senior years as these times have shaped us into the young adults we have become. I’m going to explain the last two years

Can you still remember our first days in kindergarten? When our parents dropped us off and left us in the classroom? Do you remember who cried and clung onto our parent’s pants, not wanting to let go? I did. Innocent, dependent, and immature as we were, we thought we couldn’t survive a day without our parents by our side. We did not understand why you have to leave and rush to work or get back home to attend to other siblings and household chores. With each passing day we became familiar with the school life, we were drawn to our new friends, engaged in new learnings and experiences, and we became independent, yet at the end of the day, rain or shine, we found you on the school’s doorsteps with open arms to welcome us. You are always there for us. You faced the tasks of rearing us seem so

Our graduation is our coming of age, our right of passage. As we walk across this stage we are writing the closing pages to our Chapter I and heading into the great unknown. It's kinda scary -- but hey, don't you cry, even though high school is over, the times we've shared and the friends we've made will never be lost. The clock is ticking, time is fleeting and nobody lives forever. But true friendship is something we can count on never dying. I hope wherever we go in life it will be happy and even if we all move to remote island countries we can all count on the memories and laugh at all the stupid things we did.

Graduation is an exciting time in a person’s life, especially a high school graduation. When I think of family and friends gathering together to celebrate a joyous occasion, I feel I accomplished my strongest goal. It never occurred to me that graduation would be the end of my youth and the start of adulthood. Graduating from high school was an influential event that gave me an altered outlook on my existence. Life before graduation, preparing for graduation day, and commencement day overwhelmed me for reality.

As the end of the night approached us, I couldn’t stop thinking about how many mixed emotions I had about starting a whole new chapter in my life. I couldn't wait to go to college, meet all new people, get a degree so that I could start my career path, but I knew that meant I had to say goodbye to my two best friends, who were moving several hours away from me. This was one of the hardest things I had ever had to do in my life. We all cried a little, and then made promises to keep in touch, and then we were off into the real world! I was very happy to be at this point in my life, but I was scared deep down inside.
