Class of 2020 Valedictorian and Salutatorian
On how K-12 education will help them in their next chapters in life. We'll post their graduation speeches after the June 6 event.
"My time in school had an important impact on my life. It gave me friends, mentors, and valuable experiences that I will carry with me forever. My great teachers and great friends early on at Pineview Elementary set me on the right path. I’ve been incredibly blessed by my experience in my schools and in my community. I feel ready to join a larger world and make a difference in the lives of others thanks to the supportive and inspiring people that helped me along the way."
-- Ben Welch, Valedictorian
Memorable words from Ben's Valedictorian speech:
“Work every minute to be the best version of yourself. Let the adversity you face sharpen you and your response to the struggle define you. ,,, The future is a blank page. The world is yours.”
“When examining what I’ve learned throughout my K-12 academic career, I could retain and retell subject material. Although, when I look through a different perspective, I’ve come to realize that this journey taught me so much more about myself and what I should prioritize. I’ve learned that having a strong support system is so vital in success. I depended on my friends, family, mentors and so many more people. I’ve also learned that keeping up a good work-life balance is essential. As I transition into another chapter, I am bringing along my support system, and adapting my work-life balance.”
-- Paw Der, Salutatorian
Memorable words from Paw's Salutatorian speech:
“I know that the Class of 2020 is capable of leading with compassion, honesty, hard work, and loyalty. I know that we will succeed at anything we put our minds to. The possibilities are endless, so let us be unwavering and courageous in our pursuits.”
