Graduation Speech: The Last Day Of Eisenhower Middle School

Imagine we are standing here, the last day of Eisenhower Middle School, at our 8th grade graduation. As we look up with our hearts pounding of excitement and melancholy we see our fellow classmates one by one heading up to the stands getting their diploma.

I hope my family and teachers would be extremely proud of how far i’ve grown since the beginning of the year or even the beginning of 6th grade.

It’s really important for me to have a good legacy because I want to have a good reputation. My reputation represents not only myself but my friends and family, so it’s very important for me to have a good impression on everyone. I want my reputation to be like my legacy, I want everyone to remember me as the person who cared about school and their education and was nice to everyone and strived to work their best at all
