Freshman year flew by...

Now,we reminisce as we endure

Our last week of our first year of high school

Now,we clean out lockers and retu books

And say goodbye to our friends

And those few patient seniors

Who guided us through our first year of high school

We've experienced so much this year

Our first homecoming dance

The first football games we actually cared about watching

Our first real,true friendships

And for some of us,our first relationships

Which we quickly learned don't last forever

As some of us had our first break-ups

The class of 2018 was taught big life lessons this year

From simply supporting one another through school

To comforting each other after a loss

These things brought us so much closer

Still,we all went in different directions this year

Starting our journey to finding ourselves

At first,we were afraid and intimidated

Losing our way,Forgetting combinations

Being too scared to ask for help

Now we find ourselves braver,bolder,calmer,and friendlier

We found our passions this year

Some of us are performers

Some of us are technically inclined

Some of us are athletic

And,some of us are all three or more

We're going to watch some of our best friends graduate this year

And,we can only think that one day

That will be us,and

There will be another freshman

Feeling mixed emotions as their friends head off

To facing the real world for the first time

We're going to welcome the new freshman

With open arms and smiles

The same way our newest friends treated us

Only a year ago

When we were walking through those doors

With our hearts and minds racing but ready

To take on the challenge that was our freshman year

Now,as we stand here going through our final week of this school year

We can only wait and hope

That our sophomore year will be just as good
