As a highschool senior, the closing weeks of highschool have been nothing less than sentimental. Scrolling through Pintrest in the past couple of days, I was able to find a collection of quotes that best represent my high school experience, a time that evoked self-discovery, bittersweet memories- good and bad, and connections that will last a lifetime.
High School is a time where I experienced the most change within myself. The girl that came into Sartell High School freshman year doesn’t even look like the young woman who’s leaving, and the maturity within is even more recognizable.
It is inevitable to face hardships during your high school years. One of the most valuable pieces of advice I received was to give yourself grace. It is okay to have a bad day, just know that with each day comes a new opportunity.
Even long after graduation, I am confident that the people I met in this chapter of my life will remain apart of who I am, regardless of we continue to hold a relationship. I hope one day to teach my kids the kindness that was taught to me through my peers, so that they will have a piece of them too.
