Speeches

Graduation was a time to celebrate my achievements, to celebrate growing up and maturing into adulthood, to celebrate my friends and family that guided me along the way, and most importantly to celebrate one chapter coming to an end, and another one just beginning. The night before graduation I could hardly sleep as I knew that my high school career would soon be over. I got up that next morning, took a shower, put my makeup on, straightened my hair, and put my favorite black dress on, only…

Good morning Mr. Ian Morris, Mrs. Grazia de Bettaglio, staff members, teachers, parents, fellow students, and inductees. It is a pleasure for me to reunite with all of you in a new campus, on such a significant ceremony. I am really happy and pleased to see the new members, who are about to join the National Honor Society. Students that due to their outstanding service, character, leadership and scholarship have been granted the opportunity to join such prestigious group. All…

No words can fully capture the horror, disgust, and anxiety I feel concerning the results of the election that just took place. I am disappointed in my fellow Americans and feel short-changed by the democracy we live in. Trump is a figure who represents every negative facet of modern America. On countless occasions, he has proven to be racist, sexist, xenophobic, Islamophobic, ableist, and misogynistic. He is reckless and callous with his speech, and his behavior is simply disturbing. From…

Thank you so much for the classroom set of scissors and the concept story books. My multiple handicap and fourth grade students have greatly enjoyed the books. My multiple handicapped classes favorite has been "What a Wonderful World." Though it is music class I work with these students on reading skills through songs. Two of my students are in speech classes, as well. This song has helped them practice pronouncing their T's. They are working with triplet rhythms as well with this story.…

Two of the most important speeches in Julius Caesar are actually spoken right after each other. Mark Antony's and Brutus' speech are the most criticized and looked over, so following that theme I will be comparing the two speeches in this essay. They also reveal quite a bit about each, Mark Antony's and Brutus', personalities. Out of the two speeches that are given to the crowd gathered Brutus went first, so that's who I'll be addressing first. Brutus is a very logical man. since he is so…

I am honoured to be todays eugoogalizer you know, one who speaks at funerals…For those who knew my father, you know that I could not speak at his funeral with out referring to one of his favourite movies Zoolander. Friends and family I want to thank you for being here today. My father leaves behind a loving wife, three daughters, five sons, and a loving sister, and seven brothers. Dad, you did it, 110 years old. Let us go on a life sketch journey of Jameson Scott Belyeu’s life. From the…

Dr. Meyer, I honestly thank you so much for your kind words. Although the last couple weeks have been hard, I was able to have a nice long talk with my parents and family yesterday, and we all acknowledged that things are difficult right now, but we also agreed that all we can do is hope for the best. Despite the struggle we are facing, we have become more united as a family and that will be very helpful. Honestly, I feel much better than the last couple of days and I am glad that both you…

It is almost time for Donald Trump to officially become President of the United States. The rumors have been flying that Caitlyn Jenner could be dancing with him for his inaugural dance. People shared a few details about what Cailtyn's rep had to say and if she will even be in attendance for Donald Trump's big day. .@Caitlyn_Jenner's new @MACcosmetics collection champions inclusivity in the best way: https://t.co/ajhWsUPGEo pic.twitter.com/f7pkkTmBYh — MAKERS (@MAKERSwomen) January 10, 2017 On…

Welcome family, friends, students, and faculty. We arrived at this school 9 years ago and now we are already graduating. How did time go by so fast? It seems like only yesterday we were short little kindergarteners trying to learn our alphabet and looking up to the intimidating eighth graders. The bad news is time flies by, the good news it we are the pilots. I have got to known all 50 of my fellow classmates over these years, some more than others, but I will always remember them all for having…

Good Evening, my fellow graduating class, our magnificent teachers and administrators, and our very supportive parents. It is nice to see you all here tonight.I am Devin Brennan. We are gathered here to celebrate the graduating class of 2018. We have finally made it. Three years seemed like a long time, but it feels like just yesterday we were just sixth graders trying to find our way around the school. Eventually we did find our way, not just through the hallways, but in our student life. None…
