Senior Poem
BY: Sara Jordan
8:00
A.M. August, 2011- you entered my room C104- young, excited with a little fear,
But
that was to be expected because… it was Freshmen year!
Challenging
classes with new friends to make;
Clubs,
sports and fun, filled your days,
then
seminar came and yup.. it’s a reading day.
Some
days you were reluctant, but that’s okay
because
we will just read another day!
Those
quiet scared faces sitting in that first pep assembly
is
clearly marked in my memory.
It’s
not always easy being a freshmen,
when
everyone is older and very loud,
Oh
how things changed Sophomore year when you were no longer the youngest in the
crowd.
Sophomore
year brought new learning adventures
AP,
CAHSEE, CST and PST were all part of our seminar venture.
As
we welcomed baby Alex and said goodbye to our carpet room,
C214
became a new place for you to bloom.
Half
way through, the hardest year yet
AP
Classes, SAT, college and career planning… Ready Set!
It’s
finally here,
SENIOR
YEAR!
Work,
Work, Work,
consuming
college applications and big decisions,
but
you never lost sight of your vision.
No
matter where you choose or the direction you go
You
WILL be a success this I know!
Senior
Activities, dances, assemblies,
prom
and graduation are some of the favorite memories!
Oh
how the time flew!
We
know this because I’m reading this poem to you,
and
the year is almost through.
As
you sit at graduation and wait to hear your name,
Remember
of all you learned and experienced and that you are part of the Jaguar Hall of
Fame.
I
wish you could stay forever, but you are off to bigger and better!
The
road ahead isn’t always easy, but stay on path and do not get uneasy.
When
you feel doubt, don’t shout or pout…
keep
moving forward going all out!
Have
courage and resilience
and
never forget PERSEVERANCE!
You
can do anything, I believe in you…
so
stand strong, and always do your best
Remember
you are a jewel in our community Chest!
