hello hello first things first congratulations to the 2016 good evening parents teachers siblings faculty coaches alumni students can forget significant others and community members thank you for joining us to support our class through this passage usually these speeches talk about all the lessons to remember as we part ways and has been drilled in our heads for 13 years now tell me sing it one more time won't make a difference but I'll just go ahead and do it anyway  since I was 5 years old Sports have been the passion of my life spending almost more time at practices then it's cool my freshman year was frightening not the school or social life but the fact that I had to be one of the best make a spot on the team soccer has been my favorite sport and all I wanted was to represent lahainaluna and that mile I practice all I could with the team today tryouts came along I didn't see the point in going I was just some five foot three freshmen who could never keep up with the older players the week after tryouts one of my French drew the head coach I didn't show up that I would have made the team  if only I believed in myself the next 3 years I played wing on the varsity soccer team and had some of the best times of my life  so I listen to give is never cut yourself short do you have the greatest influence of pain you decide what do you make the team or stay home you can push yourself further than anyone else no matter how many times people tell you you can only when you decide for yourself is when it is really possible  often times the point of view you have does not show the whole picture so don't shut up in it moving on its life you will face challenges as you have been told for the past 13 years and the only way to overcome them in yourself thank you 2016 has found success the many of the things we have set our mind to  those are always those underestimate us are classes shown time and time that we won't give up and it won't take two feet without a fight this resilience has the finder class that's a warm August day for years ago we first stepped onto this campus freshmen allowed routing and attempts unruly group of kids for me so instrumental in receiving State and National recognition today the cast of 2016 can probably say we have contributed to over a dozen Mal titles state championships National Meadows at several other which is an awards academic competitions  at the end of the day however  there's a that I've always remembered for my charger that says I want to be the very best that no one ever was the catch them is my real test to train them is my cause what you might be thinking why did he just quote Pokemon  has nothing to do with anything but I'm on further inspection it just might but like many other kids have heard this theme song thousands of times flexion perhaps explains why We Are Who We Are is what they are classed as shown is that we truly do want to be the very best that there were training at passion I'm confident that our class will be able to capture our goals and dreams what they may be what dream is to be a healthcare professional engineer artist farmer even perspective Olympian  no matter what it may be big or small the test of 2016 is head in the right direction that's not to say we're the best of everything just that we will not stop until we've given it our all all here today to show that we have survived for long and arduous years of core classes electives and career Pathways with some of their what is subjects we might of thought what have I gotten myself into and started to doubt ourselves but we push through and never give up we saw each other as competition yet we never failed to lend a helping hand when we see someone struggling to do their work only pertains to academics but also extends to the community and they willing us to do various community services such as Wheeling for Life tutoring Beach cleanups and other volunteer opportunities we had different reasons in the beginning one thing is the same and that is the rewarding feeling love helping others  as we climbed the ladder to being seniors we moved up from being the freshman's to the sophomores who thought that High School will never end we felt like we were at school we were as cool as seniors and we couldn't wait to rule over the and now that we're seniors we think about how fast time has gone by we have some regrets but we gave many things along play if you look around you right at this moment sitting in the same seats as you you will see one of the things that you game throughout these four years besides knowledge and experience and that is friendship some may be casual and somebody clothes but we will remember them Nautilus  dresser being with these people for 4 years I can definitely can confidently say that this class is multi-talented and diverse although we stand here today your valedictorians as number one the class we are not the only number ones here all of you sitting here right now have your own things that you excel in doing such as art music Sports and academics each one of us has the potential to do great things in life and its Arch is to use this potential to change the world thank you how come things are all the things I need to learn this is too much work and the most commonly used how is this even going to help me in the future complain about every word that was given to us we didn't realize that our teachers were trying to teach us a wasn't mean about doing the work that was about learning to have the drive finish something difficult because once we step out of this thing you will face a lot more of circles also cause I will not make sense whatsoever overcome not only to have the satisfaction and contend that we always you're in for this will be the last time that we are going to be together as a next after this we will all be separated by the future that we choose to choose to go off Island and other switches to stay the hopefully with all the side come back and give back to the community the community that supported us and help us throughout the years with our performance as being the whatever class saw her High School career truthfully we may not seem as though we had the potential but being the class that we are we were able to show that with our diversity do anything from Sports to clubs to academics with all the experience and wisdom that we gained will go out in the real world overcome all obstacles with a heads held high because we are the class of 2016 and our future is in our hands  Chase Bank it is been
