Good Bye tN y A Dear Graduating Seniors, There will never be another class that we will be able to call our first pioneers. You hold a very special place in our hearts and minds. You have truly built this school with us. We are grateful for all that you have given Boston Arts Academy, for all that you have left behind for those that follow you, and mostly we are proud of what you have become. In three short years, we have seen you mature into such vibrant, creative and kind young artists and scholars. You embody (we hope!) the best of the Boston Arts Academy. You have the power of RICO. You understand what is to own your work; to continually refine your work; you are certainly inventive in more ways than we can count, and you have learned to connect what you do in the studios and classrooms to other situations or issues. You go forth now as proud graduates of the Boston Arts Academy, and we look forward to following your professional and academic careers. We hope to see you teaching in our schools; joining the Boards and leadership position in our city’s artistic and cultural organizations; creating new artistic and scholarly works, and contributing to the improvement of our society in ways that no one has thought of before. As pioneers, we expect a lot of you! Congratulations on all your accomplishments so far. Don’t rest on your laurels now. Go forth and continue to grow, but don’t be strangers. Come back and visit us. Come back and inspire those just beginning a career at BAA. Come back and ask for help. We are always here for you. Remember that your innovations will become our traditions. We love you and we are proud of you. Sincerely, Ms. Nathan and Ms. Torres __ Teacherasnd Staff riiEa Pe = AC ALi : D. Arles B. Baer .~ -~ B. Benzan . B, Balliro° '~ §. Berger ‘B. Bluin-Smith.
