What’s up followers, it has been a crazy week and weekend, I don’t even know where to begin. So, what I might do is break this up into two parts because I don’t want to make it too long to read.
I would like to start with Shout-outs to Potomac Senior High School commencement class of 2011.
This was by far the best graduation I have ever attended. Why you ask? Lol
Because this school had Thirty-four kids that graduated with 4.0 and they all kept that grade the entire four years. They also had a Hundred sixty three kids that walked with 3.5 or higher GPA, which I thought was amazing. Especially because all of those kids were the first to attend Potomac Middle School and when my nephew graduated a year before, he said only half his class walked. On top of that, they held it at the Jiffy Lube Live also used to be known as Nissan Pavilion. It was really nice, the people were really excited and rowdy they cheered for those kids so much that one kid walked pass his certificate with his hands raised in the air like some celebrity and we all laughed. The Principal Marc Maloney was one of the coolest principal I’ve seen, giving his students daps and hugs showing them love. He also told a nice story about adversity and how his son picked himself up from a fall.
But the person that stole the show was Mrs. Helen McCormick, President of The House, Inc. which I heard was a place where she take in all sorts of kids and help them to have a better life. She told this wonderful story about a kid running a race and how as the kid was getting closer to the finish line, he heard a pop, his ham-string snapped, but the kid pick himself back up and started trying to finish the race, he even said he had to finished the race. The crowd started cheering, (I’m getting goose bump all over again), anyhow, the crowd stated cheering and the boy was dragging himself to the finish line when his father push through the crowd, and jump over the fence and told people to move so he could help his son and as they were finishing the race and people are cheering and clapping, the father said something to him about the cheers and he looked at his father and said I wasn’t doing this for them, I was doing this for me. Then she said I BELIEVE IN YOU 4Sho lol , KEEP IT UP, and AND DON’T GET DESTRICTED. It takes guts and determination to finish the race. How sad is it that a lot kids care more about a ring-tones than knowing how to read.
Man when she was done, everyone went crazy, cheering and clapping. Some families even wore costume and brought signs. Other graduates even danced a crossed the stage. I would like to close with shout-outs to some special kids, my niece Jasmine Bryant, Senior Class President Cameron Silas, Micah Kadhief Hohney (wheelchair bound) & he still pick himself off the ground, Specialty Coordinator Courtney K, Wilkson
