She thanked fellow students and staff members for making her four years great at Wolf Point High School.

Kolstad noted students are starting a new journey and should use lessons learned, good or bad, to excel in the future.

“I’m so proud of every one of you,” Kolstad said. “I couldn’t be more proud to be a Wolf than I am today.”

Campbell said she had dreams about being a speaker at graduation every since she was a young girl. She thanked her mother for pushing her in school and sports.

“We weren’t the best of students all the time,” Sears said.

He described friends and family as the most valuable resources.
