Recommended: How peer pressure affects students

Welcome friends, family, and the graduating class of 2016. I am honored to stand here before you to give this final address, even if mine is not the “final” address since Letitia and Hailey will also present their speeches, but I digress. I am so thankful for everyone who helped me, helped us get this far - whether you’re a teacher, parent, or one of the 28 friends I see before me who I have come to know and love these last few years. I would also like to thank those who are in attendance today. You show how much you care for us by your presence, and I’m sure every student here is just as glad as I am to have you with us on this remarkable day. Today is the day, the day we say goodbye to the hallways that housed our education for the …show more content…

This new environment was not like anything we had seen before; new people and a second place we would eventually call home. Here we would start the foundation of friendships that would last the next 13 …show more content…

We really were moving up in the world now. No more cubbies for us, now we have lockers and even passing periods between classes. And even… hormones. Yes, the wonderful years of adolescents are troublesome for all growing children, not just us in Suring. Now we get to deal with acne, voice cracks, and hair in strange places. Some of us even had neat afros, and no Letitia I am not singling you out. Of course the work in Junior High only got tougher. Portfolios, essays, homework, studying for tests, it was all there. But we never let it get to us. We still found ways to mess with each other, like after our 8th grade gym class. It was a pretty eventful day when Ms. Krushcke threatened to issue 3 detentions, one for Bob hanging on the basketball hoop, another for Parker pantsing Bob on the basketball hoop, and finally one for Mark for playing with an ice chipper. Mark somehow got away scot free, like he normally does. Bob and Parker, however, were not as

    To the County High School Class of 2012: As you sit in front of me, I know what most of you are thinking at the moment. There are those who are already pondering about what life without high school will be like; those who are debating whether or not to tell your crush tonight about your whispers of adoration you’ve secretly held for four years; some simply want to get out of that ungodly chair, get that thing that isn’t really a diploma but only tells you when to pick up the thing, and then be the first one on the green bus to the grad party — you know who you are. And the rest, well, the rest aren’t even paying attention, you’re thinking, “Great, here comes one of the valedictorian speakers. Next up: a boring speech straight out of the pits of scholarly hell.” And it’s OK, I don’t mind — that sort of thing comes with the territory. But tonight, I ask that you give me a chance to break that stereotype so that I may address you in the full splendor that you deserve after 13 grueling years of work. I do not want to be known as your “valedictorian” as I stand here, c’mon guys, there is no time left to place labels on people anymore, instead I ask that you accept me as one of your peers — and as a man who will enjoy becoming a graduate alongside you.

    Even though this is a celebration of a new beginning, we couldn't possibly move on without remembering the past. I don't know about everybody else, but even now, this still feels unreal. I have been waiting for this day since sixth grade, and it is strange that it is finally here. I have had so much fun these past 13 years with all of the friends that I have made. I want to thank everybody for all of the memories throughout the years. It was you guys that made school fun and interesting. From back in elementary school getting intense on the four square court or playing some tetherball, to the Friday night football games and volleyball matches, and the whole time enjoying every minute of it just because I was hanging out with my friends.

    Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - I would like to start by thanking Frank on behalf of the bridesmaids for his kind comments and echo the fact that they look wonderful and performed their role fantastically well, despite the inevitable and healthy rivalry that can sometimes occur. In fact, just before the service I overheard a furious sisterly argument about who was going to be first to dance with the best man. Understandable, I thought - until I got closer and heard them saying, 'You!', 'no, you!'

    As time progressed, like it usually does without a regard to the effect it is having on an individual person’s life, I soon become more comfortable with the environment I was in. I started to notice the finer aspects of people’s personalities. I was able to figure out where I fit in best and who understood me. High school is a microcosm of society where everyone is just trying to find their niche that they fit into. This move may have seemed like a hard task at the moment, but reminiscing upon it now, I know that it bettered me because it helped me understand the intricate workings of society and how I fit into

    For all the time that I have spent in this school, it is a memorable time that I will never regret for having it. First of all, I want to thank you all the teachers who teach me — not just knowledge in the classroom but also life lessons. Secondly, for my friends, especially my best friends, I want you to know that all those moments of happiness, craziness, and etc. that we share together are very precious to me.

  • Speech For Valedictorian Speech

    Valedictorian Speech Good evening fellow graduates, teachers, family members, friends, and distinguished guests. It is a tremendous honor to be the valedictorian of our graduating class. My job is to somehow be the voice of the entire graduating class, and take five minutes to say a few words on behalf of all 539 of us. Like most valedictorians, writing this speech was not an easy task for me. Not because I did not have anything to say, but because I was overwhelmed by how much I wanted to share with you all on this day. Tonight, we have one common purpose, to celebrate. We are here to congratulate, to look towards what the future holds for us, to wish each other well, and to, most importantly look back on our time spent here. So, I would like to start by saying 'well done' to my fellow graduates, who have all worked hard during the past several years to reach this milestone. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to the graduating class for selecting me to speak here tonight. Ever since the news broke, many people, some who've I've never really met before, have come up to me and have wished me well. Perhaps this speech would be incomplete if I don’t say something to the teachers. On the behalf of my entire class, I would like to thank all my teachers: thank you. Thank you for teaching us, for leading us, for building us up as adults. I know that we have not given back to you the respect you deserve. I know that we have not told you how much we appreciate you taking time out of your schedules to help us. And I know that we have not said thank you for giving us a wonderful education. So, I hope that as I say thanks, you can forget our shortcomings and remember us for who we are and not from the mistakes we have made. ...
