Sharpe Greetings class of 2016. As I reflect on my experience and time with all of you, I begin to smile. Not because you are leaving but because of what you are leaving behind. As a class, you have brought an aura of sincerity, kindness and overall goodness to me and the University High School legacy. In times of conflict, you always found a way to get back to peace. In times of perceived lack you managed to find prosperity and in the mists of confusion, clarity was manifested. Graduation is a time of joy and celebration. You are congratulated by your family, friends, and teachers. You receive advice, guidance, and direction from practically everyone. Many will bestow you with good luck and well wishes. When the dust settles and you are finally alone you will realize that it is up to you to decide what happens next in your life. It is you who will determine your future. Hopefully, you will begin to understand that fate is what happens to you and destiny is what you do with it. You will be challenged and you will be pushed. Be guided by your inner power, vision, imagination and love. Be motivated by your dreams, goals and high standards. Always remember and never forget that to be G.R.E.A.T. you must Give your all every day, Respect yourselves and others, Endure through times, Achieve at the highest levels and Transform the world around you. You have made me extremely proud to be able to say, "I was the Principal of the University High School class of 2016"! Good luck and be blessed.
