003shank and Mr mondus here and the lovely class of 24 advisors Mrs Kenny Stein and Miss Rocha to my mom my dad and my brother I wouldn't be here without you [Applause] it is an honor to be standing here today representing more than 650 members of our graduating class thank you for all your support throughout High School like many of us my journey into High School involved East Brunswick's Millstone moment I scream socials in elementary school in Fairview and Middle School like most of us despite the obvious interruptions by International pandemics I couldn't wait to reach high school but in anticipation of this transition I realized I was lacking a sense of self as a freshman I was surrounded by various friend groups I would ride the bus with my neighbors from elementary school I
004went to class with model un delegates and quiz Bowlers and I ate lunch with the kids that I would play sports with differences between these groups were miles apart and I found myself in a middle ground wishing to conform more neatly to one group but not wanting to let go of my friends and others as a result I felt like I was wearing a mask no matter who I was with maybe there was a bit of an adequacy that I felt with each group either not being fun or athletic or smart enough to fully fit in but early in our high school careers the pandemic redefined every facet of our high school experience the social component was no exception the Euro virtual school and the alone time it brought about forced me to reevaluate who
005I truly was honestly I was exhausted being different with each interaction but did I even know myself well enough to be someone else when school reopened for our junior year we were excited but for many of us myself included junior year also proved to be the toughest academically I needed to determine my own priorities and I often wondered what the golden balance was do I stay in prioritizing my grades or do I go out and make memories this distance to me from the people that I would spend my Fridays with the ones who'd FaceTime me forcing me to take breaks for my textbooks the hours I didn't spend with them were the ones spent with newer classmates the people I'd only ever seen in school until now the ones who'd stopped their own work to
006explain some Physics problem to me or quiz me on derivative formulas but I realized I just had I had just as much fun with the with these new friends as I did with my others and looking back through my own trials and errors I have learned that there are different types of people but they don't fit neatly into the categories that you initially believe them to be a part of people say that stereotypes exist for a reason but when that reason restricts the people that you choose to surround yourself with it does not justify their existence yes people are different but sometimes those differences uncover parts of you that you didn't even know existed don't write someone off because they're different from you I've always been told that the people you surround yourself with help
007shape you and I didn't want to believe it but I've realized now that it is true they're the ones who like you in the moment for the part of yourself that you show to them and then there are the ones who help you stitch together all the floating pieces that you've kept separated and in this process we end up discovering who we genuinely are so do not go by stereotypes be comfortable being uncomfortable smile at everyone strike up conversations be authentic and genuine and most of all don't let preconceived notions hold you back from new experiences so my dear class of 2023 go Take On The World [Applause] we will now hear from the valedictorian of the class of 2023 Allison yang [Applause] good morning evhs I'm so grateful to be representing at least one
008of us today and when I was given the opportunity to make this speech I honestly didn't know what to say or how to encapsulate all our different experiences in three minutes after all she may wear short skirts and you wear t-shirts while she's your captain and you're on the bleachers but after I got my driver's license last week just like we always talked about I realized there's one universal experience that we can all relate to for most of us high school was a golden brick road lined by white picket fences and tulips if only that road had a few lanes that were closed off for construction the Tulips were dead shards of grass along the curb and white picket fences were the countless countless red lights that everyone seems to run and of course Mother
009Nature's greatest gift it's girls that have an insatiable urge to jump in front of 50 mile per hour cars I hope you all know which road I'm talking about the one the only Route 18 or as many of you finally know it as party Road but when I first went on party Road it didn't quite feel like a party to me even though my home is quite literally a straight line to this to the school the first time I drove felt like quite literally tortured despite being armed with the little red sticker in the corner my license plate and two huge student driver signs proudly attacked by my mom on my bumpers I still felt myself clenching the wheel and gritting my teeth from trying to tactically squeeze my car between other cars packed along
010the street screaming whenever someone sped ahead of me blasting that boy's a liar with her window fully rolled down grumbling at randomly blocked off roads and speaking some unpleasant pleasantries whenever someone didn't use their turn signals I was exhausted and that was before going to cow class at the time I honestly felt confused I had followed the instructions of my dad that he had painfully drilled into my head had passed the driver's test albeit still being unable to differentiate my left and my right and my friends had driven me to school countless times before but for many of us High School felt like that with random things thrown at us from the left from the from the left and the right whatever picturesque version of high school some of us expected to perhaps find our
011own Troy Bolton to excel like Rory Gilmore or to go on adventures like Peter Parker our road was filled with countless obstacles endless piles of homework felt like cars packed along the street struggling in class felt like everyone else was speeding ahead of us and canvas pop quizzes felt like those random squirrels darting across the road and of course don't forget swerving by the bathroom pass black market and maintaining a safe cautionary three-mile distance around the random couples in the hallway while suffocating in ax body spray fumes some classes all together just felt like blocked off roads being physics but anyways now we're all here mostly alive having gone used to these new routes and routines it feels easy now maybe some of you will even drive on Route 18 today on the way home
012and are no longer phased by what feels like endless red lights and clearly Route 18 has not defeated me yet so the truth is we're now headed for New Roads filled with their own obstacles and problems we won't always have a road map and more importantly we won't have our greatest supporter of all above our friends our families our teachers the ebhs secretary Maria wood to send us our essential bearings guys I I honestly don't know what we're gonna do without her but perhaps if you're off to Florida there will now be alligators that line your path maybe you'll skid on icy New England roads or become an expert navigator at knowing when to wave out acquaintances on the streets of New Brunswick the reality is no matter how much we worry we'll never know
013what lies on the road ahead of us until we're actually driving on it no matter how many Reddit forums or quizlets you look at the answer isn't always going to be there and yes I'm looking at all of you a2c users but just like how we survived High School these new roads will become familiar once again until we inevitably move on to the next chapter of Our Lives maybe the first challenge for most of us will be getting used to the idea that Wawa won't be five minutes away anymore but that's an issue for next year and so I implore you all to look at your future through rose-colored glasses after all nothing can stop you if all the red lights just look like lights now okay okay this is a bit much whatever your
014destination no matter the obstacles you'll face along the way you'll get there eventually even those of you on buses two and six congratulations to the class of 2023 [Applause] the chorus will now present the rendition of slipping through my fingers by Abba arranged by Chandra Grover [Applause] [Music] foreign [Music] love really answering [Music] through my fingers all the time [Music] save it from the trees [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] we will now hear from The Faculty speaker as voted by the members of the graduating class of 2023 Mr hayam Cohen [Applause] welcome East Brunswick High School graduating class of 2023.

015couch for those who voted for me to be your 2023 faculty speaker thank you for those who didn't well you made a choice I'm here to provide you with live training on one last essential life skill the patience needed to wait for the end of speeches made by people you don't know to sum up information that could have been written in an email I am literally standing between you and your diploma right now holding all of you captive while you wonder how long the speech is going to be it's a good feeling for me anyway once I was named the faculty graduation speaker I was met with a lot of Demands everyone wanted shout outs of their names in the speech so far I've covered the graduating class of 2023. so that's at least some
016of you but if that's not good enough for you then I want you eat to imagine that when you hear your name called out in a few minutes that it's me calling out your name as part of this speech AP Computer Science principles class period four is that okay I want everyone to give themselves a round of applause now graduates when you see your family and loved ones I want you to give them a round of applause as you entered high school as sophomores your first lesson was a lesson in linear algebra you learn to navigate a matrix of sorts Group D Day a supplemental instruction one and three just like math that foreign language of class scheduling was only understood by you and your parents your junior year you face new hard truths that
017testing negative was like getting an A on a test you faced unprecedented challenges with remote learning you had to navigate school day to day listening and hoping for those magical words it's not covet then readjust back to the classroom now as seniors life was almost back to normal finally there were no more excuses you had to show what you can do without anything holding you back and your first major achievement was electing me graduation speaker and it was a huge achievement for the first time in high school you met a deadline I mean they only had to extend voting one extra day impressive many of you have been part of the East Brunswick School family since you started first grade in 2011. you may not know this but that's when I joined East Brunswick schools

020the population curve a z-score A plus three I'm sorry for the math reference thank you for listening I'll leave you with this the tassel starts on the right side and is moved to the left when you receive your diploma and with that you will all go and do the one thing I will never be able to do graduate from East Brunswick High School congratulations the principal's message will now be presented by Dr Michael W Vanella [Applause] welcome to all of our distinguished guests here in the arena and those watching VR live stream class of 2023 as a presenter I am challenged to share words of wisdom that inspire you before leaving this Arena so I began to put pen to paper and persuade myself to Proclaim popular phrases of prudence then I appeared at my
021computer and pecked with my pinkies I even perused chat GPT that was Preposterous it is not permissible it's in academic Integrity violation so painstakingly I perceive I proceeded again and promised myself not to posture at the podium and pontificate promises for what possibilities lie after you process out my plan was to Proclaim your persistence while you while you were plagued to progress in classes and proceed through the pandemic class of 2023 my message this year is simple and inspired by all those peas we the entire ebhs Community is very proud of you you have already lived through and learned a valuable lesson during High School life happens and you will need to be flexible persistent and focused on how you plan to achieve your goals no matter what obstacles are in your way let us
022flash back to your arrival at ebhs you waited in car lines to pick up your books and materials you drove back home set up Microsoft teams and canvas on your Lenovo and began virtual learning you are muted and turn on your camera were common phrases at the time later you returned and masked standing six feet apart who could forget standing on those spray painted feet outside or eating lunch in the auditorium that was fun by the time you got to your senior year you were in The New Normal and were successfully navigating ebhs of course it was then we threw you another curveball by renumbering all the halls and the rooms I think we are all still trying to figure that one out who could forget those wonderful PA announcements telling you about what buses
023or late or not showing up two and six the reset oh and of course the flatbread line is closed again or which bathrooms were open and of course wonderful color-coded bathrooms long lines and swiping in I'm sure that will not be missed yet class of 2023 through all the adversity you persevered not only did you make it to the bathroom you excelled academically athletically and in the Arts and did so with honor and integrity I do not have to preach at you from the podium about perseverance you lived it you know sometimes life happens and you just need to dig deep to get to the better times you know hard work and commitment to your goals over time pays off yet keep in mind to make it through the adversity life throws your way you

[Applause] our superintendent Dr Victor valeski will now address the graduates [Applause] good morning class of 2023. parents family members High School faculty Dr vanilla High School administration for president lacks and our entire Board of Education 10 years
027from now will you remember who was sitting next to you at this graduation probably not the overload of anticipation and excitement preparing to walk across this stage to receive your diploma will likely result in some Amnesia about everything you are experiencing today here's my challenge will you remember anything I say this morning and does it really matter I guess time will be the test of that here's what I know if I hear something I can relate to that I'm more likely to remember it and probably for a longer period of time if I can put it into practice in things I do I will remember it forever 10 years from now your world and your view of the world will be different the speed of change among many things affecting our species continues at an
028accelerated pace each successive year brings new discoveries that can both positively and adversely affect each one of us and I believe the biggest challenge for all of you Remains the biggest challenge that existed for each graduating class before you will you be able to adapt as your future educational professional and social environments change how quickly are you able or even willing to adjust to the changes coming your way and ultimately these decisions lie with you here is the part that I hope resonates with each of you regardless your path today reinvent yourself every couple of years it's a simple process that takes a conscious effort prepare yourself to be adaptable simply be the best version of yourself that you can be so I hope to hear years from now that these last few words inspired
029and formed the foundation of many successes that I know are in store for you congratulations to the class of 2023. [Applause] now I'm going to be the best I can be president lacks and members of the Board of Education as superintendent of schools I certify that the students assembled here have completed all the state and local educational requirements for the issuance of a high school diploma and I recommend to the Board of Education that they be granted their diplomas [Applause] Mrs Lori LAX president of the Board of Education will now say a few words good morning faculty administrators family and friends and a very good morning to the ebhs graduating class of 2023 the reason we are all here today I myself am actually I'm sorry Mr Cohen a graduate in East Brunswick and I
030actually see a lot of similarities in our experiences despite there being decades between us academic success and college aspirations drove many of my classmates in the late 80s seeing a stage full of high honors earners and watching you proudly wear your intending destinations on decision day I realize that some things never change although specific dates in the click of a mouse delivered your fate and not waiting to see the size of an envelope in your mailbox being a bear on the field in court was a big deal in my day in fact I have a former classmate and friend who even played in the NFL this class has 21 students including four division one committed to playing college with only yes with only about two percent of high school athletes being selected to play in
031the Collegiate level that is very impressive we too had our share of excellence in the Arts but the talent that has graced our stages and colored our canvases these past few years is First Rate and some of you have already found your way to the Carnegie Hall stage your generation is wonderfully accepting your friendships with one another transcends social and demographic graphic status ethnic backgrounds and cognitive capabilities you truly accept each other for who you each are today's climate has forced you to be more worldly than we ever were and at a much younger age when we made mistakes time and space eventually erased them thanks to the internet and social media every misstep today has a potential to go viral and have lasting consequences the silver lining you have also learned the incredible impact
032that you can have and how great your reach can be these things have made you both wiser and more self-aware but perhaps the most significant similarity that I see is the fact of us fact is that most of us then and now find ourselves in the middle of the pack there is nothing average about the middle my advice to you to us is to always be the best that you can be don't worry about those that come before or after you as I look out over the rows of this class my Mantra of having 8 000 kids has never been more evident I've actually been on the board of education for your entire East Brunswick Public Schools career I've handed out many academic Awards to you I have loudly cheered for you at various sporting
033events and applauded more politely at your band and Orchestra concerts I visited your schools read to you Splash through puddles at Fairview and loved and truly appreciated and enjoyed watching you grow from my Memorial kids I loved being a big part of your Elementary experience and for one of you I love being your mom [Applause] for most of you here today your roadmap has been planned for years whether it be further in your education proudly serving our country or heading straight into the workforce you are taking the next step of your journey toward your desired goal but not everyone knows what they want at an early age or how to get there there are also stories of hardship and perseverance that are never publicly told I have no doubt that sitting among you are classmates
034and friends that might have rejoiced with you and your successes while they themselves endured a bumpier path or an unclear vision for their future today is the great equalizer your individual Journeys May differ greatly when you walk out the doors of this Arena but for these brief moments you are all walking across across an even playing field and will cross the finish line together please Revel in your accomplishments as they come no step is too small to be celebrated as you patiently wait to walk across this stage it might feel like it took forever for you to get here but for your parents in the stands and the ones here on this stage I assure you it feels like yesterday when we were sweating shoe tiring and mastering the alphabet so evhs class of 2023
035I challenge you to make your mark on this world even if you don't know what that will look like yet and whether it be a DOT a smudge or a whole magnificent mural let it be yours and be proud of it the good part you ready here's what you've been waiting for Dr Vanette Dr valeski Dr vanilla on behalf of the Board of Education I accept the recommendation of the administration of East Brunswick High School and the school district and director the class of 2023 be awarded their diplomas congratulations [Applause] thank you [Applause] Allison yang [Applause] Kaylee Yee Matthew Lee Camille bacon Helena blyvis Carolyn Ely vishva gujaraj Jayden he Emily Wang Nicole mataseski shrenic Patel Andrew XI Brian Steinberg Amanda's son Emma sharrow Megan saying Catherine yang Joyce Zane Anushka Shah Ziad bergley Emily
