Graduation Speech

I have been at District 67 for all of the years from kindergarten to 8th grade and I have never once felt more happy in my life. I realize now that I will be graduating from middle school and moving on to making a better future for myself. I remember once from 7th grade how Adam Castro would eat graphite in math class. He has moved into a different school but I can still hear him crunching from here. I still remember me taking the bus as a small kid and witnessing them breaking down. Then my mom kicking me off the bus and making me walk to school after the 5th time the bus broke down. I will always remember this school and how it carries a lot of my precious memories. Once a wise person told me to look into the future and the present, never the past. I completely agree with them because you will never be successful if you always look at the sad moments in your past. The one exception is this school because it is the most wonderful thing ever. It has taught me how to read, write and even how mortgage works(Because of Mr. Carro). I thank Mrs. Joyner for being a wonderful supporting teacher, I thank Mr Carris for expanding my knowledge on history, I thank Mr. Carro for teaching me about math, I thank Mrs. Maldonado for helping me learn science, I thank Mrs. Conejo for helping me learn Spanish and weird Hispanic culture, and I thank Epic games most of all for creating Fortnite when I'm stressed out from doing my homework. I hope in the future that when I have made a successful career for myself, I will think back to this school and about all the wonderful teachers and staff there was. I also hope that I don't go homeless when I get out of college.
