It’s about time! The eighth graders are finally graduating from middle school and starting a new life to go into high school. Most 8th graders said that they are going to miss the teachers and staff.

All of the 8th graders are a little nervous for next year because they are going to see a lot of new faces, but many 8th graders are looking forward to getting out earlier and the different sports that high school offers.

These students have been role models to us.  They have been waiting for this day to happen for three years. An eighth grade student Julia Milevoi said, “This year was a fun year;. I am going to miss being the ‘big person’ here (role model)”. These eighth graders have many responsibilities for next year.

Many eighth graders have goals that they want to accomplish next year. Anthony Ciaccio said, “My biggest goal for next year is do well in class, have straight A’s, join clubs”. These goals are important because they are going to give him a good start for college.

A few 8th graders were inspired by their parents and guidance counselors to do a lot this year and to get their work done. Mikaylah Coleman stated, “ My mom inspired me to do a lot this year! She helped me get a lot done and helped me focus on my school work.”

Another 8th grader named Scott Lucarelli said, “My guidance counselors helped me through a lot this year. They helped me focus on my work and prepared me for next year.”

We wish the 8th graders the best of luck next year.  You are now beginning a new chapter of life, we hope you have fun!
