What I think I will miss most about high school is the connections and relationships I made throughout the past four years. I don’t think I could’ve made it this far without my parents, my siblings and close friends, who have pushed me, motivated me and stood by my side through my ups and downs. I hope that I may continue to find these sorts of relationships in the future as well.

Throughout my time here, from freshman to senior year, I really learned more about myself and the person that I want to become. I also learned that I don’t have to be afraid to speak up for what I believe in and what it means to be in a supportive community, and how those around me can provide many tools and resources for me to use, whether it be in school or just life in general.

I hope to be remembered as someone who was never afraid to share their faith in Christ, as well as being a light to those around me. I hope that the love I have spread and the kindness I have shown will be testimony to my love for God and His love for you and me.
