Personalized Commencement comment (the comment that is read as you cross the stage).

Make the comment personal and keep it classy – the use of slang, shout outs, use of random initials or “text talk” will not be accepted. These messages must be brief, but generally include comments about important achievements, school memories, interests and plans for the future. As there are over 240 graduates, the comment MUST be 30 words or less. Every submission will be reviewed and may be edited at the school’s discretion.

Students are encouraged to consult with their parents/guardians before submitting the Commencement comment. Here are some ideas:

• We wish you all the best today and always! Congratulations, “name”.
• Congratulations, “name”. Keep smiling and embrace the next stage of your journey.
