You are our leaders. You’re big and loud and sometimes shy and quiet. You put on a brave persona, yet still a young child at heart. You are testing the waters. You have grown into your part as the role model for our younger students. You strive for the independence, the respect, the confidence and the competence that is your due. It will come. You are our watchmen. You are a problem solver and guitar picker. You can teach us much about the future and technology, there is no fear. Long division is tackled and mastered, magnificent building projects rise from discarded cardboard. You learn of your roots, of your province, and you sleep with the dinosaurs. We will hone your skills and ready you to step up and on from here. We wish you a life of happiness and dreams come true, and hope that we have done our part to prepare you for a life well lived.
Rocky View Schools would like to acknowledge the land and recognize all the Indigenous Peoples whose footprints have marked these lands from time immemorial. Together, we can learn and honour the Ways of Knowing of Indigenous Peoples for all future generations.
