Acknowledgements
First and foremost, I would like to thank my family for their support throughout my time at Northwestern. They have been a rock during some difficult times, and I couldn’t have accomplished what I have without them.
Thank you to my professors for teaching me so much over the years. Their influence has been undeniable, and I will always be grateful for their guidance.
Finally, a big thanks goes out to the entire Northwestern community. You’ve been supportive both during my time here and after graduation. Without your support, this wouldn’t have been possible.
Wisdom from our Elders
It is hard to believe that it has already been a year since our seniors graduated from high school. In some ways, it feels like they have only been gone for a few short weeks.
We miss their wit, wisdom and good humor. We are grateful for the time they shared with us and we are excited to see what the future holds for them.
In honor of their graduation, we asked a few of our elders how they would advise graduating students. Here is what they had to say:
– Remember that you are not alone in this journey. There are people who will support you throughout your life and will help you find your way. reach out to them!
– Stay true to yourself. You don’t need anyone else’s approval to be who you are, and nobody can determine your worth or destiny but you.
– Cherish the relationships that matter most to you. They will not last forever, but they will be memories that stay with you forever.
Our Graduates
On this special day, we celebrate the accomplishments of our graduates – their hard work and dedication to learning. We are so proud of them and grateful for everything they have contributed to our community.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank our families, friends and classmates who have been such a support system throughout these years. We could not have accomplished anything without your encouragement, understanding and support.
Graduation is an exciting time, but it also marks the beginning of a new chapter in their lives. Our graduates are ready to take on whatever comes next. Thank you for being there with them every step of the way.
