Ceremony Times
Fike High School June 8, 10 a.m. Dear Graduates: Graduating from high school is a milestone and one of the greatest things you will achieve in your life. Your class – the class of 2013 – is an amazing group, and I know each of you worked hard to reach this point. By graduating from high school, you have already proven you have what it takes to succeed in life. You understand the importance of hard work and education. And you understand that if you want to grasp all of the opportunities out there waiting for you, graduation is not the end – it is the beginning of a new chapter. Whether you are headed straight to a career, the military or a college or university, your goal has to be to flourish once you get there. Just being hired for a new job or accepted into college is a great accomplishment, but you also have to put in some work if you want to stay there. The best way to do this is to make the choice to grow personally and professionally for the rest of your life. From this point, learning is something you must pursue and something you must own. Jobs in the civilian workforce and in the military will require training. Seize those opportunities as the first step toward personal growth or your next positions. People will notice when you work hard and go above minimum expectations. Colleges and universities will require you to take and pass classes to earn a degree. You need to strive to squeeze as much from the learning opportunities as possible and not just view the classes as hurdles to be overcome. The truth is, it is difficult to know what direction your life will take. You may have a goal in mind, but it could change at any moment. By choosing to never stop learning and growing, you will be ready for any path that opens up to you in life. Commit your time, energy and spirit to doing the best you can and more. There are so many people around you who believe in you because we know your education up to this point has prepared you for what lies ahead. Congratulations on earning your diploma, and good luck in your upcoming endeavors. I am certain you will make us all proud.
