Elementary School and I am here on behalf of the entire lot to akin to congratulate the class of 2021 you are now officially and we are so fun what do you have to accomplish over the last two years as and will be unmatched but you did it it wasn't ideal was like most graduating classes can you get the hang out while your bodies are sitting in class with 35 kids turn off a screen to a computer so yours you still think your job I know a lot of people out there are saying all these kids they're you know they're going to struggle when it not our kids not you your 7th grade teachers last year your 8th grade is this year I've done an amazing job of making sure that you got the education that you deserve and you're going to see it when you go to high school but everybody else is trying to catch people up you going to be stopping you're going to sit in those boxes to go we've done this keep it going you have an advantage what a disadvantage this year but it's been an advantage for you for your future because you've done the work you've turned from normal Elementary School students who came to school and people have the harp on you and and nudge you and wake you up in class and try to get you to go class lockers or wind around the buildings to doing everything on your own independently yourself off you had to make sure that you got online yet so figure out how to use the camera but it wasn't just looking up at the ceiling all the time just so you know parents this is what most of us all throughout the school year for some reason they didn't want to show themselves they didn't do their hair or whatever but you have to be engaged then you were at your work done and you've done it it's going to make you so much stronger than anybody else and I know you been here 10,000 more you may not understand now but you will when you get older what did for the class of 2021 at the ages of 13 14 15 we're independent Learners can say that before you you learn to do it on your own I take responsibility and learn really easy to get sidetracked sit there and play cool games for the teachers teaching watching YouTube videos or focus on what you're supposed to get done then realize that you can still do all those things just after you get your work done you're going to be better people going to be hard going back into society and for those that have come back this year socially accepted hang in there that's going to be your tough one getting back into society and hanging out with all these kids again in learning how to manage your time and not get caught up in the dramas do you have parents you're amazing we were able to get through this year and a half because of you please understand that as a school you put your full support and me and my team at our school and then you're to your students with children's teachers because you did that we were able to do our job and I think we did a really good job under these circumstances I'm very proud of everybody I want to thank you because it's hard to be hard ever met home cinnamon Gates yelling at them screaming at them the things that we have to do every day when their hair promise we can call you when they can call us when they're not listening to you we lost that connection we lost that teamwork but you did it on your own and I thank you for that then they may not know what they want when they get older you're cute thank you too because however hard it was they made it 10 they are now graduates of elementary school and going off to awesome high schools hopefully they'll take all of this and continue to keep
