MY Graduation Speech
Hello everyone, how are you all doing this fine night? Well, I’m great, and I’m pretty nervous; because I’m afraid of giving public speeches. But thanks to Brighton, it pushed me out of my comfort zone and onto this stage in front of all you wonderful people.
Succeeding from middle school is no easy task, looking back it surprises me that I even made it this far. Thanks to my teachers and family, I did make this far.
As for my teachers, the one that is the most important would be Mr. Bretz. He would make sure I wouldn’t embarrass myself, help me with my homework and, of course, kept me safe in Virginia, Washington DC and New York. If it weren’t for him, I’m sure that I’d still be on a subway, wondering when to get off. Thanks for all your help, guidance and support Mr. Bretz.
During the three years I’ve been in Brighton, I had three science teachers. Needless to say though, Mrs. Ashenburg is the best. She constantly makes science fun and exciting. It’s fun to look forward to her class and wonder what surprises she would give to us. Thanks Mrs. Ashenburg, you are the best science teacher I’ve ever had.
Ms. West, you are one awesome, awesome, awesome math teacher. You make math so easy to learn and understand. It is truly amazing how you make math fun and exciting with your projects. Thanks for making math fun and for your service in the military.
When I was in a different school, my dislike for language arts soon became hate, but once Mrs. Flegenheimer stepped into my life, my hate instantly became love. Thanks to Mrs. Flegenheimer, I now love Language Arts.
As you all know, my English is fluent. As some of you know, I speak Mandarin Chinese Fluently. Two languages was already good enough for me, but when I met Senorita Rosa, she was kind enough to give me a chance to teach me a third language: Spanish. A new language is a new door to the planet, a new culture, new religions, more chances to express the mind. Senorita Rosa knew this, and

    First of all, you were probably the funniest/most entertaining teacher I have ever had throughout my elementary and secondary education. I thoroughly enjoyed coming to your class. You made learning lots of fun. Your students became apart of your lectures so many times it was like we was living the history you were teaching. You have a lot of passion for your job, teaching us and personally made me want to give the same amount of effort…

    In Science, she made learning fun. She spent countless hours preparing lab materials (and I’m sure spent a lot of her own money) before school and on her breaks to be sure we were able to have as many hands-on-experiences as possible. Until seventh grade, Science was my least favorite…

    Hello students, faculty, and families of BFCCPS. As my classmates and I stand here before you tonight, I imagine we are all thinking very different things. Some of us are excited, others sad, and some scared. Maybe not at this moment, but at some point we have all thought about the time we have spent at BFCCPS and how our years at this unique school have changed us. Whether you arrived as a nervous kindergartener or a confident middle schooler, the opportunities we have been given, and the lessons we have learned have shaped each and every one of us into the people we are today, and more importantly, the people we will become in our futures.…

    On my first day of school, I was not able to communicate with my peers as Spanish was all I knew. Learning English became my priority and I worked meticulously every day to close the barrier between my peers and me. Fortunately, there was a bilingual teacher, Mrs.Verburg, who became the only person who could…

    You're one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. English and writing played a part, but the way you taught and related to kids on their level was pretty awesome to watch. I thought it was funny how you'd go off subject at a moment's notice and I remember you even bringing up two of my favorite subjects in class - Punk Rock and graffiti. I was especially impressed by your broad-mindedness and unrelenting support for the underdog.…

    Good Afternoon, thank you for coming to our 8th grade promotion. 9 years ago I walked onto this campus for the first time hand in hand with my mom. Being only 5 years old, I had no clue regarding what would happen in the years to come. All I knew was in that moment, I was utterly terrified. Looking back on it now though, I had nothing to worry about.…

    When I was younger, I didn’t necessarily have the highest grades and I wasn’t the most talented student, but what set me aside from others was my desire to succeed. That desire only transpired when I entered high school. Many people would not assume that I once struggled with reading numbers and words because they all looked the same.…

    Imagine… you are getting all dressed up for that big day. You get anxious and scared because it’s the graduation for eighth grade. You get all dressed up and put on your gown and cap. Then you arrive at the school. You sit in the assigned seat and watch the children before you get up and shake hands. You feel your hands get clammy as you wait. You wait till you hear your name and realize that it’s your time to shine. You stand up and hear the creaking of the harwood on your shoes. Then you feel your hands and wipe them down, but when you get up there you shine like a supernova. Everyone's eyes are on you. You realize that it’s your time to show who you are and time to reflect on your legacy here. A legacy is what you leave behind for people…

    I will never forget the day I took my first steps into English l. They're at room a110 I met the teacher who would completely change my view of human trafficking. Human trafficking wasn’t even something I had ever known or heard of. What was unique is that my teacher was passionate about the subject at hand. We did research and sent letters to people who really needed a push towards hope. While doing all of this I started to see how important this had become and it was all because of this one teacher. She altered her view into what seemed to be my view now.…

    When I think back to my most memorable teacher I immediately am reminded of my third grade teacher Ms. Castaldi. Her classroom was set up in small groups of four around the room, her desk in the middle. I liked this classroom arrangement as a child because I felt like she was one of the students. Ms. Castadli treated all her students with respect and was extremely caring and understanding, like a mother. She had a true passion for what she did and it really showed because all of her students were successful in the classroom.…
