Senior Speeches 2022-23

If I learned anything from covid and could give you one piece of advice, it would be to not take anything or anyone for granted and to enjoy the rest of high school while it is still here. Life is always changing and you just have to make the most out of every single day.

Thank you to all of my teachers who have helped throughout my time here at Renaissance.

The next chapter of my life in college will involve a lot of personal growth and evolution. A part of me is scared of stepping outside of this comfort zone at Rolling Hills Prep, and attending a large scale university. Some questions that are always jumping around in my head are, How big will my class sizes be, will I be able to make any friends, Am I going to have to cook on a regular basis, what if my roommate is a complete psychopath who really enjoys setting my things on fire. All of these questions would be overwhelming and intimidating had I not developed the ability to adapt to the challenges I have experienced in my life. As a person with a disability, I have many strengths, with the greatest of being able to work through extremely difficult situations. So no matter the loss, the mental struggles, and the jump from high school to college, I know I will adapt to my ever-changing environment on top. Thank you.
