My high school years seemed to have flew by. It seems like it was just last week that it was the first day of school in my freshman year. I'm both nervous and excited for my first year at college. There is a lot I will miss about high school, like the great teachers including Mr. Shaver, and all my friends including my wonderful girlfriend. Besides that, I'm excited to start my learning career as a student pilot.

High school was just part of my childhood, and now that I'm moving on to college I am able to peruse my life in the direction I chose. I will miss my friends and being able to see them everyday. I am looking forward to going to school in the city and going off on my own.

Ginnette Hric

It makes me feel that I'm growing up a lot. High school went really fast and I learned a lot from going to school here. I have a lot of great memories from here that I will be able to bring with me wherever I end up. My high school career coming to an end will help me shut a lot of doors that I needed to close a while ago. I'm not attending college but am joining the military after high school. I'm excited for all the people I'm gonna meet and experiences and places I'm gonna endure and see.

High school has been a very important part of my life and has shaped who I am, but I can't wait to move on to college. I will miss the friends that I have made but I am looking foreword to making new ones and exploring new interests in a new place.

I'm excited to graduate and for high school to come to an end; I'm ready to begin college. I've had a lot of fun in the high school and some great teachers, such as Mr. Padilla, Mr. Weidman, Mr. Miller, and Mr. Wagner, and I will miss all of them. I'm looking forward to starting college in the fall, a new experience in a new place and I get to meet new people and learn about things that I want to learn, not have to.

I am going to miss gym with Natale Buongiorno and photojournalism with Mr. Shaver. In the future, I will be looking forward to not being in high school and not getting up at abominable times in the morning. The field trips were really cool but after high school, everyday will be a field trip.
