My 1st most favorite memory of this whole school is sharing my ideas and stories about the Philippines and the United Nations in U.S Government & Economics class with Ms. Brown, Career Planning with Ms.Curi and in Mr.Fleischer Archeology science class this semester, because its so important for me to share and learn about with the class. I would like say that if Mr.Zirpoli would join one of those class, I bet he would be happy to hear me share to everyone, including him. My 2nd memory is being in Ms.H Fine Arts class, because she knows how much I love Pablo Picasso artwork and she even let try to my Inkscape app art that I've been using for such a long time and thanks to Mr.Luthmann for giving me the inspiration to use it in her class, which I love both Mr.Luthmann and Ms.H as my art teachers. I love all my all teachers here at NVVA! 💗

Look at us, who would have thought we'd be here already? Graduation in less than a few weeks. I know very few of you, but I know we share one thing in common, we made it! Some of us early, others later, and others right on time :) No matter your age, class, GPA, ACT score, or anything in between we've all made it; and THAT is something to truly celebrate.

I cant describe how much I feel right now I can not believe the school year is finally over! We made it! Gosh feels like the older you get the faster the year goes hahah.

My Favorite time of year well I have a lot one I loved how Mr. Graham would tell funny jokes or story's before class. I loved in Ms. Cynthia's class leading student work outs and having fun together. I also loved how we would have wakey wed in Mrs. Miller's class lol when she would get swallowed by breakout rooms lol or we would have tech issues. But we made it through!

You all have been so good to me this year I love this school year! I sure will miss you all. And student Council members Thanks its been a pleasurer working with you all. Thanks for everyone for being so kind to me this year and for the best year! I shall miss you all!

"I don’t know where I’m going. But, I sure know where I've been..."

Wow...what a journey this has been. After 6 years of elementary, 2 years of middle school, and 4 years of high school...this is it. It's a bittersweet moment, really. On the one hand, I'm content to close this chapter and move onto the next phase of my life. But on the other hand, I'll miss everyone that I got to share these last few years with. From my teachers, who guided me every step of the way. To the people I was lucky enough to call my friends. Both groups of people helped me become the person I am today. And I'll never forget you.

"I hope the world sees the same people that you always were to me. And may all your favorite bands stay together."

If I had to choose a favorite moment from this year, it'd probably be when prom nominations opened up. And my friends and I got together and started nominating each other for prom king and or queen. And there was just so much love, humor, and appreciation shared for/from one another. It was truly special and what bonded us even closer together. And I want to thank those weirdos personally: Ban, Michi, Bunny, and Anthony. Thank you guys for being the best group of friends a fella could've ever asked for or even hope for. I haven't felt more comfortable being openly myself than I have with you gang. And I'm so proud of where you're going to go in life.

"It's times like these you learn to live again. It's times like these you give and give again. It's times like these you learn to love again. It was times like these, time and time again."

To all my teachers, past and present, thank you for everything. I couldn't have gone far these past 4 years had it not been for all of you. I count myself lucky that I was put in your classes. And I can't believe I had the incredible fortune of being one of your students.

"Something unpredictable, but in the end is right. I hope you had the time of your lives."

To all my friends, former or current, thank you for all the wonderful memories together. It made my high school experience less lonely and more enjoyable. When I look back on these years, I'll remember what we did together. And it'll probably be with a smile. Followed by a tear of joy. Because man....ain't it funny how the night moves? When you just don't seem to have as much to lose? Strange how the night moves...when autumn comes closing in. But, I'll remember.🥲Thank you for the memories.

"We've come a long way from where we began. And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again."

The year is finally ending… I can’t even describe the feeling that’s washing over me as I think about it. I graduate this year, and it’s so strange to realize that I won’t be returning to NVVA as a student ever again.

This year has probably been my absolute favorite. The best moments for me came with working with Prom Committee in the Student Council. I’ve always been really shy, but this year I decided to step out of my comfort zone and lead the prom committee, and I couldn’t be more glad that I did! Working with all the fabulous people in the committee was such a privilege, and seeing the photos and stories from prom was my favorite moment of the school year!

To those graduating, congratulations! We’ve made it! It’s scary moving into the next step of our lives, but it’s also so exciting! Look for the positive in life, and you will always find it!

To those returning to high school next year, enjoy it! I didn’t really begin to interact with my fellow students much until this year, but I regret that! Have fun, talk to your classmates, and remember that high school doesn’t last forever.

I want to give my shout-out to Tatyana Turner, who worked incredibly hard this year, especially in Prom Committee! If anyone ever had questions that I wasn’t available to answer, or I needed something done on short notice, Tatyana was always super reliable and the person to go to! Tatyana, your hard work didn’t go unnoticed, and we appreciate you!

Eeeeee! I can't believe next year I'm goin to be a Junior! My high school year has passed so quickly and before I know it, its 2024. Seeing everyone at prom was amazing! Getting to meet some great people got to dance/look like a moron (my normal self 😁😄). I was also really excited to see all my friends there at prom!

Oh my goodness, Sophomore year has been a journey for me, and I can't believe it's ending. This year I have had a lot of ups and downs, it's been a roller-coaster honestly. Those moments have really taught me a lot of lessons over the course of this year, like to make sure to always get work done on time so that you aren't overly stressed out with how many overdue schoolwork you have to do. I also learned to choose your friends wisely and know who's good for you and who's not. It's always important to know to be careful who you associate with, because if you associate with people who aren't good for you to be around, you'll start to act like them, and start doing certain things like them, so I'm always going to make sure that the friends I make are good/long-lasting friends that'll always be there for me no matter what.

I am very grateful for all the friendships I've made over the course of last year up to this year (you know who you guys are). Thank you all for making my two years here at NVVA special. You guys are awesome!!! Unfortunately I will not be here next year due to me having to move to Northern California, so I'll miss you guys!

I want to also thank all of my awesome teachers this year for helping me and everyone else to be nerds (jk but thank you for teaching us new things to know). I am going to miss you guys as my teachers, and I know that next year when you teach new students that you'll do great with teaching them new material!

Thank you all so much for another great year here at NVVA. I wish you all a great and gucci (that was for you Malachi lol) summer break, and I wish y'all the best of luck next year! 😎

Wow that came by soooo fast for me. I don't know about you guys but I'm scared to go to the next level.

This year for me has been veryyyyy interesting for me ups and downs but I was able to manage to get over everything. School was tuff with assignments and quizzes ect. but I still tried to keep up with everything.

I am so thankful to have people by my side like Michi, Rocky, Miles, Claire, Bunny(Epi), Flair, VV, Celene, and Anthony. You guys have been a huge support for me when I was having a difficult time throughout the year and I really do appreciate you for standing by my side and always being a true friend to me and I will and always will do the same for you.

I also want to shout out to my student council friends! I enjoy discussing ideas together coming together and talking about ideas to help the school and do activities each and every one of you are awesome in your own way(You know who you are) For those who are leaving the student council I wish you guys the best of luck!

Shout out to my teachers who help me and support me and guide me through lessons and the time and effort you guys do for us I appreciate all of you! I hope to see you guys next year!

My favorite memory from this school year was prom! I was able to see many people and see my friends and my boyfriend and dance and have a good time and to just go wild(Being myself)

I will be here next year so I hope to see you guys next year, but if not I wish you the very best, be yourself, stay strong, keep being yourself and to see you guys later!

Happy Summer!👋🏽🌺

Something in the way

Wowwwww, I can't believe im saying goodbye to my Sophomore year! So much has happened this year and I am appreciative of it all. Time honestly does fly by when you are having fun, and this year has been a year of fun for me. This has honestly probably been my favorite school year ever! Just starting with the teachers, every single one of y'all has made this 10th-grade year for me extremely fun and smooth. I didn't have any problems whatsoever because of the amazing teachers I was given. The way y'all kept the class fun, funny, and engaging, but still were able to get work done was absolutely something that I will cherish. Also, thank you all for allowing me to be funny/weird and just be myself in the classes lol, I truly do appreciate it, like from the bottom of my heart honestly. To all of my friends, I just wanna say thank you for being there with me through this year, y'all have definitely had a big role and impact on why this was the best year for me. For everyone that joined Team Malachi/Team Gucci/Team MVP lol, y'all are the real ones and we gonna keep it going for the next year. Also, for the new people I met this school year, thank y'all, I'm glad our lives have crossed paths, like for real. There is so much that I wanna say but I don't wanna be too wordy lol, but my favorite memory of this year has to be Prom. Being able to see all of my friends and teachers and being able just to dance lol and have fun will be something I will remember for a long time. Lastlyyyyyyyy lol, to all of my friends leaving the school, I am going to miss you all, like you have no idea. It won't be the same without you. Aight, I'm done now lol, bye y'all!

I want to give a quick shout out really quick to Logan Ostler who inspired me also to sing a song for the yearbook.

I wanted to sing this song to you guys because I know that people are feeling sad that the school year is ending and that they're going to miss they're friends. I wanted to let everyone know that even though that sometimes it feels like we're alone, or when we feel hurt, there's always someone that's there for you no matter what, and He's going to be there to heal your heart that's suffering.

I hope y'all enjoy me rapping/singing to this song :)

Sophomore year- has been the most hectic ten months of my entire life. It's been some of my favorite times, painful times, and a bunch of crazy stuff in between. But I wouldn't have it any other way. 10th grade was a rollercoaster of emotions. I honestly think this year has been my favorite among all of my school years so far. There have been so many memories, and people that have made this year 10,000 times better.

Starting off- I wanna say thank you to all of the amazing teachers I had this year. I don't think Mr. Graham is ever gonna say my name correctly (iykyk) I also don't think he's ever gonna stop making age jokes about Mr. Zirpoli. I also believe Mr. Zirpoli is the spice girl we never knew we needed. (again. iykyk XD) Ms. Marconi's gnomes will always be watching us (AGAIN. IYKYK.) Educating Ms. Garban on slang terms with Anthony was amazing, and reading Macbeth with Mr. Gratrix was so fun. Doing fun facts with Ms. Larsen was an amazing part of this year :). MS. CYNTHIA IS OFFICIALLY THE BOSS AT LINE DANCING (iykyk.) Ms. Miller is an amazing homeroom teacher, and Ms. Isbell honestly is my favorite history teacher of all time. All of you are amazing teachers. Thank you for all that you do, and for being so supportive and kind. KEEP BEING GREAT AT TEACHING ALL OF US HOOLIGANS!

Shoutout to the Spirit Week Committee! This year was my first year in student council, and it was amazing being with all of you. Being on the committee with you has been so incredible, and I'd gladly do it again. Some of the peoples from student council are officially some of my favorite people. (you know who you are lol) I've loved sharing ideas with you, and creating memories that'll now last a lifetime <3

There are so many amazing memories from this year. Movie Night, Jumpstart Interviews, Valentine's day when I officially became friends with some of my now best friends- but I think my absolute favorite of this year had to be Prom. Being with my friends- and being crazy and dancing till we all had to stop (even though I know for a fact some of us didn't want to lol) just being around some of my favorite people for the first time- was just an amazing feeling and experience. Dancing with Lilly and Viri was so fun XD. Being prom queen was a big shocker though. Being up there with Malachi and Milo was amazing!!! :)

I am eternally grateful. for having so amazing people by my side. inhales. I wanna say thank you to Anthony Convey, Lilly Hicks, Rocky (Ban the Babe) Woods IV, Alonzo (Flair) Rodriguez, Miles Gunther, Katia Carillo-Nufio, Simone Weston, Rose Urban, Sergio Garcia, Ethan Doss, Alex Porchas, Brie Padilla, Nohemi (NUGSSS) Ferraras Rodriguez, Milo Bufton, and Epi (Bunny) Scott. All of you are incredibly weird people. and I love all of you. All of you are so great at so many amazing things. You're all supportive and great listeners. And we've all been through some crazy shiz together. so- I just wanna say, thank you for choosing to be my friend. <3 IGHT I NEED TO WRAP THIS UP LOL. This year has been so crazy- in good and bad ways. The future is gonna be unpredictable and it's gonna be really scary. but- we got this! we're gonna be juniors next year, and I know that's a really scary thought. but- we've all got each other! <333

I'll still be hanging around, so I hope to see all of you next year! AS JUNIORS!!!! Thanks for an amazing year! All of you are freaking incredible peeps. I LOVE ALL OF YOU GUYS SO MUCH- I hope you have a phenomenal summer, and I'll catch you guys later! :))
