The Beginning of the Rest of Their Lives
By Ingy Fahmy
On numerous occasions, you would find the seniors sitting by the front porch reminiscing about all the crazy things the previous classes did and how those times used to be marked as the “golden days” of Schutz. But what this year’s senior class seems to be oblivious to is the fact that its members will be talked about in the same spirit of the “golden days” memories that prior graduates shared before.
I will not exaggerate about how this class gets along all the time and how it is always “rainbows and butterflies” with them. Each class member is distinctive and unique in a way that is not comparable to any other. Even though differences exist in every class, this class had the chance to grow together and to put their discrepancies aside to aid in each other’s own growth.
As they get ready to close the door on their high school days, the graduates realize that commencement is often referred to as the end of a long journey; however, they understand that it only defines the beginning of the rest of their lives.
In the coming months, the seniors will have to face new realities, including leaving the comfort and familiarity of their own homes to establish and create their own new ones from scratch. Graduation carries around a constant feeling of bitter-sweetness; you want to be done, but at the same you do not want it to be over.
The Class of 2010 will soon be officially relieved from their educational duties at Schutz American School. Nevertheless, each member in this class was empowered with the tools to thrive academically, which will aid them in thecoming stages of their lives as they mature in the years to come. The graduates will soon become freshmen in universities such as the American University in Cairo, Berkeley College, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Copenhagen University, Regents American College London, University of Alberta, Gardner Webb, Purdue University, and Vellore Institute of Technology.
The Schutz community wishes the departing seniors heart-felt congratulations and nothing but the best of luck and success in the beginning of the rest of their lives. The graduates hope they have left a mark on Schutz and its current students as Schutz has forever left a stamp on their lives.
