I am very excited to graduate but also saddened that I will not be able to see any of you in person (thank you, virus...) I was highly looking forward to hugging you all, dangit. >:T But I love you all and I wanna say congrats to everyone graduating with me!! <3

Mrs. D and Mrs. E, thank you for making this year an absolute blast. I can't thank you enough for the compassion you offered, the laughs you induced, and the wisdom you shared. I'll never forget your stupid jokes about Jane Eyre, baby gates, being old, and whatever else we goofed about over the past few months. Thank you for helping me develop as a student, writer, thinker, and person; you've left an imprint bigger than you could fathom on me, and I'll forever appreciate it.

And to my fellow classmates... ****, I LOVE YOU ALL. Hopefully I'll meet each and every one of you one day, and suffocate you with a hug or twelve. Thanks for making school tolerable. <3

Thank You

Ms.D, thank you for making this school year fun and interesting for us. This is my first and last year doing homeschool. I thought that it wouldn't be as good as an experience as public school always was, but you and Ms.M proved me wrong. I'm glad you guys did.

I may not be graduating this year, but I'm glad I was able to meet you all and can consider you all a friend. In hopes we all will meet again one day. Thank you to Mrs.E and Mrs.D for making this year fun and thank you to everyone for bringing me out of my shell.

School is Over

2020-06-05 13:12:01 UTC

It has taken many long years, but I have finally finished school. I am extremely excited to leave this chapter of my life behind and ride on to the next. With only college in front of me, I can be hopeful for my future. I spent my entire school life at Ohdela, and I have seen many changes and endured many hardships. Now it has paid off.

It's crazy that I am graduating and that school is over for me. I want to say thank you, Mrs. D and Mrs. E for making this school year memorable. You both are amazing teachers! Our whole class was one big family. I am going to miss every single one of you guys... :(

🐢 <---- Here is Moe and he says goodbye too! XD

Remember to follow your dreams and don't give up even if things get hard. I love you all <3

Goodbye

I have mixed feelings about graduating. I am both happy and sad. Happy because it's a new chapter but sad because I am going to miss you all. Thank you Mrs.E and Mrs.D for being so kind. Thank you to my classmates for making class fun. I love you guys :)

Congrats to everyone we did it even with us having to go through Covid the past year.

I only have been here at OHDELA this year and last year. I'm glad my mom made the decision to put me to OHDELA. I have learned a lot. Met a lot of great people that I will miss. I had some awesome new teachers that have pushed me to were I need to be. I will miss everyone. But I am happy to finally graduate and move on to what the next thing will be.

I feel very happy to fulfill my dreams to be able to graduate I feel very happy because they gave a good teaching all the teachers help the students a lot I will miss them for their teachings they are very good

Congrats to class of 2021. We did it!! I hope everyone goes on to do what they love whether that means going to college or not. Do what you want and what makes you happy, not what others want you to do.

I loved this class so much! Mrs.Dornhecker, you really are my fav teacher! Thank you for being the best and giving me the opportunity to learn and achieve goals.

I am finally graduating! or am I ? well, I hope so anyways. It has been one hard task for me with tourettes, ADHD, and ADD. I mean it has taken a lot out of me to get here. I know you are probably thinking nah it wasn't that hard but man it was long grueling hours for me. I want to say congrats! to our class! I want to say thank you to Mrs. Wan for really being the best in culinary, biology, anatomy she is the real reason for my passing these classes she really gives you and inside view and really explains so much with detail. She answered all my questions. I want to thank Mr. Buckner for state testing last year he really opened my eyes to what I could achieve. He is truly amazing person. He may not be here at ohdela i'm not sure but he has to get recognition. I want to thank Mrs. Dornhecker for reading my stories and always commenting. I want to thank her for looking at my assignments and helping me grow with constructive criticism. I could not have done this with out the great teachers. I especially want to thank Mrs. Hodge without her I would have no idea on what the next step of my life would even look like! I have learned so much this year and I have grown as an individual. What a great year this has been. I wish we could all see each other in person and really get to experience walking on stage with names being announced and share this experience together in person. I want to cry I am so happy to be only a few days away from the rest of my life! My goodness can you believe it ? we finally did it! Mrs. Wolfe Thank you so much for getting to know me! you are the best intervention specialist that I could have asked for I wish they had assigned me to you long ago. Thank you so much!
Mr. Wenciker! you have got to be the best math teacher on earth! I am so happy you were my teacher this semester I was so worried I would fail. you came in and right away I could understand most that you taught you have the most unique way of teaching! I can not thank you enough truly you are one amazing person! Thank you! Ohdela has some amazing teachers I want to thank you all!

If I'm being honest I have mixed feelings when talking about graduating. I know it's probably that deep seeded fear of the future that we all have inside of us but the thing is I've made so many friends, learned a lot from so many diverse people , built up a dream goal for myself , and even a back up plan if I was to fail to achieve that dream goal.
So high school for me , more specifically this last year and a half, is like building a family outside of my own at home. Everyday when I went to class I'd have at least 5-6 other students who ask me how I was or be excited to see me. Not very many people know this about me cause I like to keep it on the down low but this last year has been extraordinarily tough for me between my parents divorce situation on top of COVID-19 and a lot of emotional stuff along the way. So knowing I can go to a live session and have a laugh and a lesson learnt made me feel included and safe. You don't realize how important a simple message in chat from another student or teacher telling you that you have the potential or you can do something that you thought you couldn't. It actually drives you to be better not just in that subject but in general. Don't ever let it be said that students don't pay attention because they're just bored , although that does happen sometimes, but most of it's because they don't see the need for school especially when they feel like everyone lumps them in with the crowd.
I didn't mean for this to become a sermon or a speech but I just wanted to express how powerful unity is and how it helped me see a future no one else was showing me. So I know I could on for hours about how much it helped me but I'll cut it short, well try to any ways.
All in all it was amazing and made me ready for what lays ahead. I owe the teachers and all the faculty at OHdela personal thanks for putting up with me , especially Mrs. Michaels and Ms. Malik .
It's hard to let go but like everything in life if we don't let go we'll never know what we miss out on.
So congrats to you all class of 2021 we survived the impossible and still made it out on top! I know you'll all do amazing things in the future and hopefully so will I.
Thanks to you all .

We did it!

Most of my friends will be leaving this year so I am very sad but also glad they were able to graduate and live their dreams to the fullest.

During this school year, I fought through a lot of struggles and that made me loose hope but, i'm here at the end of the road and I couldn't be happier. Just want to say thank you. Even though I didn't communicate much but I will always remember you, Mrs.Dornhecker <3 YAYY

I just wanna say that I'm proud of myself and all the 2022 graduates. I feel like everyone has their own battles when it comes to school, but we all made it! With less than a week of school left we are so close to graduation. I'm truly happy that I will get to close this chapter of my life. And I'm beyond excited to see what life has in store for me next! Congratulations Class Of 2022!!!

I can't believe I'm graduating. I honestly think it has only just now set in while I'm writing this. I went to in person school all my life so I never expected to finish senior year sitting in my room at my desk, but regardless of how it happened, I'm just glad I made it. My life has been pretty hard these last couple years for many reasons, and I just wanna say how grateful I am that this school was available to me. Without OHDELA, I might have never graduated. So thank you OHDELA, Mrs. Dornhecker and all my other teachers, and all the kind people I've met here for giving me the strength to finish strong. <3
