Over the last few days, I believe you have begun to appreciate how great your impact has been on the people in your school community. The younger students spoke about you with such admiration and affection. They described you as their older brothers and sisters. They told you how they looked up to you and how proud they are of all your achievements.

The Rev. Fathers, the Parish President and Board Chairman Mr Phillips, Mrs Tsaconas, everyone here is proud to share this evening with you. As His Grace Bishop Iakovos said at the close of the Thanksgiving Service dedicated to your graduation, we are all here for you. You are our present joy and our future hope. We say that our school days are the best days of our lives. Mrs Katsogiannis always qualifies this, “most days”. I guess we say this because the time we spend at school is substantial and significant for the rest of our lives.
