I knew senior year would go by quickly, but I never imagined how true that would be. Journalism has been a big part of my life throughout high school. I’ve made some of my best friends in this class, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I usually try not to think about graduation because when I do, I get sad, thinking about all of the moments that I am going to miss. I am going to miss sitting in Ms. Ewing’s room watching sensory fruit videos. I’m going to miss running around the school trying to find people to interview for articles, or putting posters up on the walls. But most of all, I am going to miss sitting in the corner with Kinley, Rohani, Preston, Jackson and Ross while we talk about whatever our stupid topic of the day is, or fight over the purple rolling chair. This class has given me so many great memories, and I wouldn’t trade any of them for the world. I love every one of my friends in that class, and everyone holds a special place in my heart. I will miss everyone once we leave, but for now, it is still April, and we still have time to enjoy it. – Kate

I always thought people were dramatic when they told me how fast high school is over, but I realize they were in fact not being dramatic. After four years in journalism, it’s hard to believe this chapter is ending. I’ve made so many friends along the way and watched each of them graduate, never imagining how quickly it would be my turn. Now, I’m one of those people, graduating alongside the friends who made this class so special. I’ll miss the daily battles over the purple rolling chair acting like it was a throne, and the random, funny conversations in the corner of the classroom. Most of all, I’ll miss Mary Ewing, whose warmth and support made this class feel like a home. Thank you for the memories—I’ll carry them with me always. – Kinley

Throughout all four years of high school, I have always looked forward to graduating; however, now that it is actually here I do not want it to be over. Journalism has helped me find my true passions, without it I would have never started photography. I would never be doing what I love if it were not for this class. I have made friends and built connections that I will carry with me for a long time. Sitting in class everyday while taking adventures around the school will be the best memories I have had. Journalism was the class that made me want to come to school and allowed me to truly be myself. This class will always have a special place in my heart and it is so hard to say goodbye. I will miss the environment that journalism has provided for me throughout my time here, but most importantly I want to thank Ms. Ewing for everything she has ever done. Ms. Ewing was the best teacher I have ever had and I will always remember her!
