MISS VAIL PRINCIPAL

My dear young friends,

As you leave the middle school another door is opening to your future and you begin a journey we must all follow. It is not so important how long the journey is as the footprints you leave for others to follow. You will have many paths from which to choose. Your choices

will decide the course your life will take. You can take the easy, well-worn path or you can choose the one less-traveled. Either way, you

can make an impact on this world as long as you follow your own heart rather than the desires of others.

So, my friends, whichever road you choose, let it show that a good and noble person passed that way. Don't sacrifice your convictions for a

place in the sun. Keep to the true and right path. Let the footprints you made in this life show that you walked in the footsteps of love.

Go in peace!

Kathleen Vail

Dearest Students,

Over the past two years I have watched you progress toward this milestone in your lives Your minds have been filled with knowledge that will serve as the foundation for whatever educational path you choose Most of all, you have discovered that hard work and determination will be rewarded, both in school and in life. All of your future successes will utilize these very same lessons but on an even grander scale. They are your ingeritance from the middle school. Treasure them always and nurture their continued development as you expand your horizons and experiences

As a class you have also bestowed upon us a remembrance. Your curricular and extracurricular accomplishments have helped to enhance the middle school's reputation as a place where students succeed in a variety of educational and athletic pursuits. This is your legacy and we will proudly recall your achievements If you embrace the future with the same enthusiasm, spirit and perseverance that you have always displayed here, greatness will certainly be yours.

Carla Sutherland Vice Principal
