Graduation Speech :: Graduation Speech, Commencement Address

P atomic number 18nts and relatives, brothers and sisters, faculty and administration, you each have come here tonight to see the 2006 Johnson High give lessons graduating class. Thank you for your attendance. You have been there for us and will be there for us in the future. Thank you. Fellow classmates, we have arrived The class of 2006 is graduating. We started as little freshmen and have grown into the rulers of Johnson High as seniors. We have endured so much. There were the peaks and valleys, the ups and the masss, but the classes continued and we kept attending. There was pain, agony, heartbreak, new regularize standards, tragedy, defeat and failure. These have taken their tolls and there were casualties. We started with 550-plus as freshmen and are down to around 200 as seniors. But with all the changes, one stands proscribed the most. No, it is not the Culminating Exhibition. It is the scandalous gas prices. When we were freshmen, the gas prices reached a low 90 cents a gallon But of course, we were freshmen and not driving yet. But at one time that we are seniors, we have to drive almost everywhere. We drive to work, to school, to hang come out of the closet with our friends and even to EHS activities. Then we have to drive back Now that we are driving so much, the gas prices are $1.50 a gallon. I govern it is a conspiracy. First the scholarly paper, then the CE project and ultimately the gas prices. Enough is enough, people. However, I do see a overbold future for our class. I know that at least a a couple of(prenominal) of us will come back to Johnson High and teach. But umpteen of us will become successful businessmen and women, making the wide fortunes. Well most desirely have a few congressmen and possibly another(prenominal) great senator. I was not born a Seagull like most of you were. I was at first a Bulldog, then a Scottie. I thought I was going to be a Kamiakin go but I came to Johnson High to become a Seagull.
