Graduation Speech: Freehold Boro High School
Imagine… you are getting all dressed up for that big day. You get anxious and scared because it’s the graduation for eighth grade. You get all dressed up and put on your gown and cap. Then you arrive at the school. You sit in the assigned seat and watch the children before you get up and shake hands. You feel your hands get clammy as you wait. You wait till you hear your name and realize that it’s your time to shine. You stand up and hear the creaking of the harwood on your shoes. Then you feel your hands and wipe them down, but when you get up there you shine like a supernova. Everyone's eyes are on you. You realize that it’s your time to show who you are and time to reflect on your legacy here. A legacy is what you leave behind for people …show more content…
Everyone remembers being a sixth grader with those lockers that wouldn’t open and the school that was like a maze. Now this is our school and we are the big dogs. That is what growth is. I set goals is sixth grade and I succeeded and I did the same thing in seventh, now I am still setting goals because without goals you will stray of course. The goals I set for myself involve making the honor role getting into the Medical Science program at the Freehold Boro High School. This will be tough because many other people will be going for this program not only in this school so I will have to work very hard to reach my goal. I will achieve this goal by working hard getting good grades and doing the best I can on those tests. I will work hard in all my classes to get great recommendations and that will definitely help me succeed. Outside of school I play football, basketball, and lacrosse.I set high goals in each of these sports. In football only the top 3 teams in each division get into the playoffs, I want the team I play for to make it into the playoffs. In lacrosse I play defence so my goal for most games is to not let my man get by me and score goal. I am not very good at basketball but that doesn't make my goals easier to schive, I like to get at least 6 points a game. These are some hard goals to achieve but I believe that with the work I put in I can achieve these

    Sense the age of twelve years old, Ive been apart of the James Island Charter High-school Track and Cross country team. For the past five years, I've developed inseparable bonds and life long skills that have helped me develop important morals in my life. This year, my senior year of high school; I chose to tell my parents, coaches, and teammates that I wouldn't be competing for our team this year and that I wasn't running cross country. As a five year varsity letterman and athlete, making the decision to not run cross country was pretty emotional and painful. The decision to not compete and to pause my athletic career for three months all started from me interviewing seniors for media tech (our schools news network).…

    Goals that I had set for myself and accomplished were bringing my GPA up and getting inducted into National Honor Society. During my freshman year, my GPA was B+ and so I started motivating myself and I did this by focusing on my grades more often and asking teachers for help, who were very kind. I would like to be able to become stronger both in academics and extra circular activities for me to become stronger and a capable student; it will take hard work and dedication just to push myself. As years passed, by GPA started going up and in my junior year where, some of my friends got inducted into National Honor Society and I had not.

    Having grown up in a single parent home with two sisters who did not complete high school, made the pressure for me to succeed unimaginable. The constant reminder of achieving greatness has stuck with me since I was eight years old. Throughout middle school I was top of my class, in high school I graduated cum laude with a 4.4 GPA and currently in my 1st year of college I am top of my intermediate/college algebra class, I scored the highest grade out of all 5 of my psychology teachers classes, and I have an A in my Philosophy class. My educational goals consist of gaining knowledge throughout my entire life, achieving higher than my goals, being as involved as I can possibly be with my college/ community, and continuing to prosper. Ever since…

    Good evening distinguished guests, mothers, sisters, grandmothers, friends, teachers, our beloved admin, and, of course, last but not least the beautiful, amazing, guests of honor also known as the senior graduates of 2016. Welcome to the graduation ceremony for the graduating class of 2016. I am proud to be representing the voices of my fellow seniors on this final day of our high school career. And I am sure the lot of us would truly agree that it has been quite a career. To say that it was easy would most definitely be an exaggeration, well more like a lie actually. To say it was hard, now that would most definitely be an honest truth, because high school can be quite a handful: its…

Today marks an end of an era; a turning point in our lives. The years of books, plays, dances, and sports have led to this very moment.
