Wolf Point Students Graduate
Wolf Point High School conducted graduation ceremonies with 44 students receiving their diplomas on Sunday, May 25.
High School Principal Kim Hanks said the students possessed a variety of talents including being musicians, actors and athletes. Their abilities are anticipated to lead them in career fields such as law enforcement, military, business and medicine.
Hanks said that school officials are very proud of each of the graduates.
Valedictorian Victoria Wozniak said graduation is the result of hard work. She thanked supporters including teachers, friends, parents and siblings. She said the graduates’ start of a new journey will lead to rewarding opportunities for growth.
Salutatorian Isabella Sanchez said high school is a time that shapes a person’s personality. Selecting the right crowd was one of the most important decisions that was made. She feels more attention should be given to mental health. She added that it’s important to keep going and ask for help when it’s needed. “Let’s continue supporting each other,” she said.
Honor students providing speeches were Logan Wolff, Chase Adams and Ameliya Doney. Wolff described teachers as “heroes without capes.” He noted the role that teachers played in their lives. Adams thanked teachers for their knowledge and patience and seeing the students’ potential when students didn’t see it in themselves. Doney said that facing challenges taught valuable lessons. She said every experience, good or bad, shaped the students.
