Today as we leave middle school and enter a new and exciting environment we all remember something special that made us who we are today. Some of us will go one way, and others another, but at the end of the journey we will always have the memories of here, of this school, the memories of our panda pride and traditions. Through fun and games we've had it’s hard to believe that we have learned so much over the years. Well for one thing it’s don’t skip class in the bathroom that’s for sure! It is important that us as young adults realize that this isn't the end but only the Meir beginning. From here on out what you do will impact your future greatly. Showing great ambition and pursuing all goals plays a great deal in our lifetime.
Ms.Willams, Mrs.Cosner, Mrs.Glenn and Mrs.Mickalockis I want to thank you for planting seeds within us to prepare us for our futures. As we transition to high school we must focus on cherishing the time we have there we all have very bright futures ahead of us but what you make it means the most. I truly will miss each and every one of you!

One of the students said, “8th grade because we are becoming more mature.” I think in 8th grade lots of students had grown not only in their learning but with their personality and maturity. Six people who favored 8th grade as their favorite year said they had a lot of fun that year and that friendships grew a lot stronger with other students. One student said, “8th grade was best for me because I found my best friends and I have had lots of fun.” Some students have said that their favorite memories have been that year was going on the school trips, teachers, and camping trips. One student said “having the most wonderful friends and teachers”. Another student said, “My favorite memory from 8th grade was going on the Washington DC trip.

I’ve grown up with all of you. We’ve laughed and cried together. Though, as I leave, as we all leave, I think about how we’re not going to be all in this together anymore. As the end of our time together grows closer, I want to look towards the future. Yes we’re graduating, but just as Carol Burnett says, ‘We don’t stop going to school when we graduate’. We may be leaving, but we’ll never stop learning. Each new day will be a new adventure. We’ll make new friends and gain new experiences. Yes, I know this all sounds incredibly cliché, but that’s the point isn’t it? School if anything, was a love / hate relationship. We had our ups and downs, and just like school, life is going to be the same. So I encourage you to look back on your own schooling lives; take your mistakes and learn from them.…

I will never fail to remember everyone that has made a difference in my life and will definitely make sure they know how much they mean to me.

I am the one in the picture with the sloppy bun in my hair and the bright red cheeks. The one who can't stop smiling. With all my friends surrounding me, it was one of the best days of my life. All fifteen of us look happy; it was a night for many smiles. Everyone is crowded around the table. There are a lot of red cheeks in the picture; the room was as hot as a sauna. There was a strong smell of barbeque sauce in the air as well. The picture was taken right after dinner. The table we are crowded around is messy. There are a lot of cups on the table and bottles of ketchup and barbeque sauce, with dirty, green napkins piled up. The restaurant was as noisy as the circus when the clowns perform. There were a lot of pictures taken that night, but out of all the pictures, this is the best one taken of everyone. Crouched down in front is Brent Dana. He has a grin on his face more than a smile. Brent hates pictures, and he doesn't smile in any of them; he is wearing his red "Rag Tails" shirt that he always wears. Next to Brent is Jade Walker. She has her hair back and is wearing her red "North Face" jacket. Jade has an adorable smile on her face. Next to Jade is Mary Attaway leaning over the table wearing a flowered backless shirt with a black sweater. To the right of Mary is Laura Jones. Laura is slightly leaning her head toward her right shoulder and is wearing a blue shirt with a drawstring tie in front. Laura has her arm around Erica Farnsworth, who has a yellow shirt and white jacket on. She looks especially happy; she is smiling from ear to ear. Starting in the left hand comer (in row two) are Chad Phillips and Caitlin Pollock standing together. Chad has his arms around Caitlin's waist. He has this cute little grin, and Caitlin has a huge smile and rosy red cheeks. Brittany Wilkins is next to Caitlin with a puzzled look on her face, the face you would see in a hard Algebra II exam when you don't think you even learned what the question is asking. To the top right of…

It was the fall of 1984; I was a senior in high school, this wasn’t a new school for me. Getting to school that morning proved to be very exciting, entering the doors at Hanau American High, this was going to be my last first day of school there. We were all excited to see each other, although we may have seen each other during the summer, for the most part some of my fellow classmates lived an hour away from me. This time I walked in with my head held high, I was a senior. Excited about starting my senior year, this at the time was supposed to be the best school year of my life. There was so much to look forward too, and really knowing deep down that this school year was going to fly by and we would all be headed in opposite directions.…

Every summer break, I dreaded summers final days as though it was the plague or some kind of virus. It marked the end of a time of laughter, friends and fun. I can remember sitting on my porch, scarfing down a juicy watermelon with many other kids my age. There was laughter and joy that filled this moment. Afterwards, we would get on our bikes and ride to the nearest friend’s home, hoping to find more summer activities to satisfy our summer time thirst for fun. But upon summer time coming to a close, the result was all kids my age having to return once again to the life sucking place known as middle school. But even middle school is known for being one of the most dreadful times in someone’s teen years, I have a place that my younger self would…

During school when 7th period rolls around we stare at that clock waiting for the bell to go off. High school is a fun time and part of your life that you won’t want to let go. Not only do you want to leave, but the fear of graduation is holding you back. In the movies the seniors can’t wait to graduate, but in life it’s not like that we don’t want to graduate as it may seem. It just means that we have to grow up and not be so childish and immature. We will have to get real jobs and not stay out till 4 O’clock on a Friday night because you will have to take everything seriously.…

A defining moment in my life was my 8th grade graduation. To most people who went to Hopkins, this may not seem like a big deal but to me, attending a private Christian elementary/middle school for the past 10 years was kind of a big deal. I had just spent the past 10 years with about the same 18 people and just like that- we would never see each other at school together ever again. The switch from a parochial middle school to a public junior high was difficult. The fact that I was no longer with my friends who I build strong relationships with hurt me a lot. It was hard to make friends in 9th grade because I missed all of my old friends so much. This gigantic transition changed many parts of who I thought I was. When at a religious school,…

Yes, you've been pampered, cosseted, doted upon, helmeted, bubble-wrapped. Yes, capable adults with other things to do have held you, kissed you, fed you, wiped your mouth, wiped your bottom, trained you, taught you, tutored you, coached you, listened to you, counseled you, encouraged you, consoled you and encouraged you again. You've been nudged, cajoled, wheedled and implored. You've been feted and fawned over and called sweetie pie. Yes, you have. And, certainly, we've been to your games, your plays, your recitals, your science fairs. Absolutely, smiles ignite when you walk into a room, and hundreds gasp with delight at your every tweet.

Middle School isn’t over; the end is here at last. The parts of my life that seemed never ending are gone for good. I thought I could not wait until high school, but now I wish that it wasn’t here so soon, ending my year as an eight grader. I feel lost as my eight grade year comes to a close. The anticipation I once felt about high school has been replaced with not only fear but also the never ending question of what to expect when I get there.…

Esteemed Director Sir, Principal, Teacher’s & My Senior Colleagues. Good Morning to all of you we are gathered here to give a farewell to our seniors. Is saying good bye really an occasion to celebrate? I consider myself it is very hard to say good bye to whom we like. This is the first farewell function of our school. Today we are saying goodbye to the first batch of 10th grader’s, those whom we met 3 to 4 years back. Some of them may be leaving for new destinations and new journeys unknown to the rest of us while the other’s may be in home town.…
