Graduation Speech :: Graduation Speech, Commencement Address

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I would handle to welcome you to Tomatovilles Class of 2006 graduation ceremony. It is a cracking honor to be speaking to you whole.I would just like to take a couple of minutes to point out some things that I maintain noticed during my time in racy school.I always seem to hear complaints about how teachers dont really care about their students. But I presuppose our staff here in Tomatoville disproves that. All the teachers and administrators seem to genuinely care, especially our counselor, Mr. Bool. I am sure that he has helped all of us at peerless time or another.I also get the impression that society thinks teenagers are lazy and that we dont really care about anything. I would also like to disagree with that. Our high school has done a lot to show people that we care. We had a food drive. There is Little Buddies. In one of my classes, we all chipped in money so that a student could buy tickets for the prom. One student started a group to raise money for the Childrens Hospital. Money was collected and buy at was given for a well-loved teacher who is battling cancer. There also has been a tremendous amount of support in these last few weeks for an injured student.In addition, I think that every single member of this graduating class has great potential. As we start a new phase of our lives, I know that everybody will imbibe a chance to accomplish something meaningful to them. The possibilities are endless.The last thing that Ive noticed is something one of my teachers pointed out a few weeks ago. It always seems that in high school, there are certain groups. And one of these groups is always the geeks. But my teacher said that anybody is a geek if he has a passion for something.
