014miss heath whose kindness and genuine interest in my success and happiness provided me with invaluable strength i'm so grateful to my entire family mom and dad thank you for the gifts of my faith and four brothers tom peter patrick and matthew you've guided me each day with love and the steadfast hope that all is well and will be well but this moment is about all of us and our collective achievement during a period of time for our entire world that was challenging beyond measure it was our impressive perseverance patience courage and determination in the face of adversity that kept us moving dr martin luther king jr a leader of change in the face of such adversity during a historic time for our nation said it best if you can't fly then run if you can't
015run then walk if you can't walk then crawl but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward it was our support of each other that has made all the difference the gift of empathy for what another person may be experiencing is powerful and strengthens one's spirit henry david thoreau said could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant because of many of you in this room i was blessed to witness moments of empathy kindness and greatness it was carrying an injured player off a field after a devastating injury and a final senior game it was the basketball team bringing a game to a halt to ensure that players from the opposite team had an opportunity to make a basket they passed the ball to the
016other player players versus each other and we watched with tremendous pride it was my first experience performing in the spring musical shrek i watched an assembly of acceptance and support for me and everyone of all interests and talents it is our unified program the essence of its very name and an experience that reflects friendship kindness and a spirit of inclusivity that centers around all athletic activities it is a student clearly rushing so that he wouldn't be late for his first class deliberately stopping turning around and running back to open a door for a peer with their arms full it is a classmate just simply stopping to say how are you to a friend or acquaintance who appeared to have something on their mind i am confident you have your own experiences to reflect on as
017well these are the moments along the way that have carried me you and will carry us all forward one of my favorite religious leaders mother teresa said be the living expression of god's kindness kindness in your eyes kindness in your face kindness in your smile kindness in your warm greetings i believe that the way in which an act of kindness is done is as important as the action itself we have earned the success we are all feeling today and success comes in many forms success is about the impact you might have on someone else it's those small acts of kindness that i've witnessed in my own journey in the hallways of our high school or athletic fields these four years have defined us i am now prepared and excited to set on a new path
018to the college of the holy cross i challenge you to choose your own path keep moving forward no matter the challenges you face and discover your own moments of kindness and empathy remember the strength and commitment that carried you through your high school years i wish each of you happiness and success in whatever way you may define it enjoy this moment thank you very much for letting me share it with you in such a meaningful way best of luck to each of you god bless and congratulations once again [Applause] thank you catherine at this time it is my pleasure to introduce the class of 2022 vice president catherine cheria [Applause] hello everyone my name is catherine sherrier and i'm the vice president of the senior class i'm very lucky i get to introduce the keynote
019speaker today and i'm even more lucky that it's miss lassie i will try my best to explain how incredible she is she has helped our class through hard times being open arm to any student throughout the pandemic and the academic school years as well as smiling with us through the good times such as winning the high school's annual pep rally three times in a row i would like to bring into light how much effort miss lassie puts into everything she does miss lassie dedicates hours after school designing and constructing bulletin boards for spirit week going to michael's to get art supplies selling fundraiser raffle tickets to strangers driving around placing flamingos on people's lawns cheering on 5k runners making staff t-shirts for our spike ball tournament and doing everything to make our special or our
020prom special including finding venues hand making film reels and table decor taking the time to sort through a thousand photos to personalize each student's experience and being the leading force behind every detail so many of your actions are not publicized but please know they don't go unnoticed i'd like to say this on behalf of all the students in this class and myself we're so grateful for everything you've done you taught us how to be kind how to take each day and make it into our own how to laugh at ourselves and how to find and showcase what makes each of us unique in miss lassie's room there are elephants everywhere you look elephants are known to always travel in packs and remember their family throughout these four years miss lassie has led our herd to
021grow together she's created a safe home for our huge family to come back to please help me welcome the woman who has changed my life and impacted so many miss lassie from the bottom of my heart thank you all right well i wasn't mentally prepared for that thank you so much for that introduction cat don't we all just wish we could be catherine cherry or when we grow up i'd like to thank all of you for the honor of letting me speak today there's so much we've been through together your awkward freshman year a pandemic the flamingo fundraiser of 2021 acceptances rejections wins and losses but what i want to talk to you about is something that i wish i had taken into more consideration at my high school graduation today there will be many
022wonderful people in your life telling you that they are so proud of you as they should be 12 years of education and all the learning and growing that comes with those 12 years is a huge accomplishment but i want you to try and stop and think about what in these last 12 years has made you proud if you're anything like me this question makes you very uncomfortable we can praise those around us much more easily than we can compliment ourselves our society tends to make us think that we can't be proud of our own accomplishments we should be humble and grateful well i think that you can do both for many of you there'll be things on your list like grades or sports but there are some of you sitting in these chairs today that
023perhaps didn't shine in those two areas maybe your journey today was not as smooth as those sitting around you all of your paths to get here today are equally important perhaps you struggled with your mental and emotional health along the way maybe you were met with a tragedy that changed you maybe it took you until senior year to finally be confident enough to be your true self maybe you came out while you were here maybe you got here by scratching and clawing through things that the rest of us could not imagine all of you have reasons to be proud today and everyone's reasons are going to be different that's what makes today so beautiful we're not just celebrating the end result we're celebrating all the bumps and the breaks in the road that led you
024here be proud of those struggles some of you might be sitting here thinking that these are flaws it's all about perspective and i beg you to start shifting your perspective now you are not flawed you're layered you're not broken you're picking up the pieces and reassembling none of your journeys need to be the same each journey is exactly what it's supposed to be the good the bad and the ugly it has made you you and you are enough more than enough so today surround yourself with people that truly see you for all the parts of you and be proud of yourself for all those reasons as well i will leave you with this it has taken me 37 years to get to the point where i truly believe i am enough that i am worthy
025don't wait as long as i did start falling in love with yourself today if you haven't already see yourself for all that you are and be proud i am enough you are all enough thank you and congratulations my seniors may health and happiness follow you always [Applause] oh i'm just thankful i don't have to follow that miss lassie fantastic job um before i do introduce our next speaker i wanted to just take a second um when i listed our retirees i neglected and shame on me um i want to thank mrs rose acosta who is also retiring this year mrs costa has been a phenomenal member of our faculty for a number of years i also want to take a quick second to just thank our partners at dc tv as well as students from
026our dartmouth high school tv media production program they're here filming and um they make the live stream possible so that members of our community who could not be here today can tune in so thank you to dctv and to mr peratti and his uh crew for for all that they do now at this time it's my pleasure to introduce superintendent of schools dr bonnie gifford [Applause] you mr tebow mr tebow dartmouth high school faculty and staff family and friends school committee special guests and of course the class of 2022 today we are gathered together to celebrate the accomplishment of our graduates and affirm the successful completion of their k through 12 education graduates i know you are hearing folks telling you about pursuing your dream striving for excellence and much more so i will not
027add to this advice rather i'll comment on what i found something on the internet the other day on the secret of happiness as it often happens i come across a quote or a story that catches my attention and speaks to me about the really important things in life just the other day this one popped up and i wanted to share it today so why do dogs live less than people here's the answer being a vet i was called to examine a 13 year old irish dog named belker the dog's family ron his wife lisa and their little six-year-old shane were close to belker and expected a miracle i tested the dog and found he was dying of cancer i told the family i couldn't do anything and offered to do the euthanasia procedure at their
028home the next day i felt the familiar feeling in my throat when belker was surrounded by family shane seemed so quiet petting the dog for the last time and i was wondering if he would understand what was happening in a few minutes the animal fell peacefully sleeping to never wake up the child seemed to accept belker's transition without difficulty we sat for a moment wondering why the unfortunate fact that dog life is shorter than human beings shane who had been listening closely said i know why what he said next surprised me i had never heard a more heartwarming explanation than this and the moment changed my way of seeing life he said people come into the world to learn to live a good life like loving others all the time and being a good person
029well as dogs are already born knowing how to do all this they don't have to stay as long as we do the moral of the story is if a dog was his teacher he'd learn things like when your loved ones come home always run to say hello never pass up an opportunity to go for a walk allow yourself the experience of fresh air and wind run jump and play daily upgrade your attention and let people touch you avoid biting when just a growl would suffice on warm days lay on the grass and when you're happy dance around and wag your entire body and never forget when someone has had a bad day stay silent sit close and gently make them feel like you're there this is the secret of happiness that even if we don't
030realize dogs teach us daily class of 2022 congratulations i wish you health much success and most of all happiness [Applause] and now mr tebow chairman nunes school committee parents families and of course the dartmouth public school staff by the authority vested in me as the superintendent of the dartmouth public school district i certified that these candidates for graduation have fully satisfied the requirements prescribed by the massachusetts department of education the dartmouth school committee and the dartmouth high school faculty [Applause] thank you dr gifford at this time it's my pleasure to introduce chairman of the dartmouth school committee mr john nunes [Applause] thank you mr tebow colleagues parents guests and to the class of 2022. thank you mr t vote tebow i do want to know that you are correct i was not around in 1872.
