As we look back and remember
we can't help out but appreciate all
that we have learned. It's because of
the wonderful teachers, and the care
and support of our parents, that we
have become the young adults that
we are today. We've grown as indi-
viduals and I like the people that
we'ye become.
I look forward to the fall when we
all start a new beginning. Let's start

I have been so excited for this night
to come but now that it is finally here,
I don't want it to end. And I can tell
you now, those high school teachers
at F.E. Madill and at LDSS are going
to have their hands full next year.
I would like to close with this poem
entitled ...
Believe In Yourself
Set your standards high you deserve
the best,
Try for what you want and never
settle for less.
Believe in yourself no matter what
you choose.
Keep a winning attitude and you can
never lose.
Think about your destination
But don't worry if you stray
Because the most important thing
Is what you've learned along the
way.
Take all that you've become
To be all that you can be.
Soar above the clouds
And let your dreams set you free.
