Salutatorian Speech
Hello, everyone! I’d like to thank everybody again for coming out today to help send us off into our futures. The sad truth is, is that this is probably the last time I’ll get to talk to my entire class at once so I’m gonna try and make it good. We’ve come a long way from nap time and chasing each other around the playground well…maybe something’s never change. Our class has had some awkward moments, from learning about the “bull head” in Mrs. Currnutt’s class, to Morrison hitting on Mrs. Harber. But, we’ve also had some fun times too. We had a pretty amazing fishing trip at the end of our junior year, and also we made a great Senior Harlem Shake! In the past four years I have become friends with people I never expected to be friends with, or even the past two years, for that matter. And I think our whole class can relate to that. Our teachers and parents have always described our class as a “colorful” class, but if you ask us, we’d say were just incredibly awesome. We know that the teachers may not show their heartache but we know that deep, deep, down we will be truly missed. So in conclusion I would like to say thank you to everyone that has helped our class to reach this point. We are truly blessed with people that love us. I would like to end with a quote by Dr. Seuss that says ““You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You're on your own.
And you know what you know. You are the guy who'll decide where to go.”

Thank

    Hello, I am so honored to speak in front of all the parents, staff and my fellow students today. Wow guys we made it! These past 3 years have been full of so many memories that I know we’ll never forget. Think all the way back to 6th grade we were always the littlest ones and I remember feeling like a fish out of water. We were terrified of getting lost or being late for class, but excited to have a locker to decorate and change classes each period. It doesn’t seem like that was over 2 years ago at all. We came back in 7th grade, much more confident than the year before. We looked down to the new 6th graders, asking "Were we really that short just last year?" And by the end of 7th grade I was shocked that I was officially an 8th grader. 8th grade is defiantly my favorite year. I feel like I have everything under control. But next year is full of changes. We'll have free periods, more homework, electives, and an open campus. The new choices also bring new responsibilities that test us in figuring out how we grow from kids to adults. As we say goodbye on the last day we sit together as Balboa students, we reflect on what has happened the past 3 years, but also look forward to what is coming up in the next 4 years. My advice to future 8th graders is to keep up with your school work and try your absolute best and make lots of good, loyal friends that don’t get you in the bad kind of crowd. And most importantly, have fun! This is the last year you will be the oldest in the school for another 4 years, so enjoy it! I’d like to finish this speech off with this quote : A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.-Ayn Rand…

    Throughout this semester many things have been new experiences for the entire class. Some met new interesting people on the other hand some people learned new experiences that will be used throughout the rest of this next semester. Whether it was watching a video on the computer or reading through the Bedford book, many new techniques were learned, as well as new information being learned. Some day’s everything may have not been all together but everything still managed to work out for the entire class, or the one’s that stuck it out through “craziness” of being a new student or having a new teacher. This “craziness was definitely well worth it now that the semester is over and the new semester is approaching.…

    I’d like to thank my friends and my academic adjudicators. Without any of you, I would not be where I am today. Thank you, because without your help, I would not have been given this chance to represent the class with a lengthy speech comprised of highly personal anecdotes, a chance I now plan to take full advantage of. Thank you teachers, for all that you have taught me - lessons that extended well beyond the four walls of a classroom, for providing me with myriad opportunities for all round development and values in life. Mere saying Okay. I won’t make my speech way too lengthy because I know what a torture it is to stand right there and listen to all the blabber. So first let’s get done with the Thank yous.…

    There are so many great memories at this special school. All these memories are like photos in an album. As I am flipping through the pages, lots of memories came to me… Trying for treasurer for twice but failed twice. Running for president of the student council. Making posters for lemonade sale. Playing basketball with friends at recess... Argonaut, thank you so much for giving me so many great memories. Thank you, my teachers who taught me tirelessly. Thank you, my friends, who cheer me up and make me laugh. Thank you, Mr. Chapman, who welcomed us every day at school. I’m looking around and hope I can capture all this in my memory that I will never forget… trees, playground, office, classrooms, library, teachers, friends …. I am going to miss you very much, Argonaut. We will move up higher from here, but I know, I cannot be me without you,…
