On Wednesday, April 17th, 2024, Lake Shore Public Schools welcomed its 114th graduating class, the Class of 2037, to the district during the 2024 Kindergarten Roundup.
Several Lake Shore High School students came out to assist at this event. Both Emily Biddle and Angelina Silva reflected on the 2024 Kindergarten Roundup experience.
Biddle, senior, said, “To me it means that I am welcoming the future students and future of our world into the district of Lake Shore Public Schools which to me is an honor to have been a part of.”
Having the opportunity to round up the future of Lake Shore Public Schools is a rare honor that only a select group of students get to experience.
Silva, junior, said, “Helping welcome the 114th graduating class felt like such an honor, especially knowing that we’d be some of the first faces they see as they’re accepted into Lake Shore. Watching the kids gradually become more comfortable with us mascots and the rest of the staff throughout the event was by far my favorite part of the entire evening.”
Being able to welcome the next generation of Lake Shore students can be a very gratifying experience.
Silva and Biddle then recalled some of their favorite memories from their elementary years.
Biddle said, “One early memory I have in Lake Shore Public Schools was when I went to Violet Elementary. We were first getting introduced to the recorder, as an instrument, so the teacher gave us beginning lessons on how to play notes. She saw I was struggling with the hand placements and came over to help while everyone continued, she carried on and didn’t make it a big thing which in turn helped me to play while also not being embarrassed.”
Learning from mistakes can be a very beneficial experience, as students can learn from those mistakes, leading to excelling in that subject that they were struggling with before.
Silva said, “One of my earliest memories from Lake Shore Public Schools is the field days we’d have near the end of the year in elementary since they’d bring in tons of fun games and even a Kona Ice truck.”
Having the ability to recall memories from elementary school can feel good sometimes, as it will remind the person where they came from.
As Biddle and Silva are upperclassmen, they summarized their years at Lake Shore Public Schools.
Biddle said, “I would describe my years here as being helpful to make me who I am today. Without all the lessons in academic learning, I wouldn’t be so successful. Without the help and encouragement from teachers I have and have had in the past, my leadership skills, communication, and kindness wouldn’t be what they are today.”
Having the privilege of being able to obtain a quality education is very important, as that could pave the way for a successful future.
Silva said, “As an upperclassman, I’d describe my years in Lake Shore Public Schools as extremely beneficial. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know many great teachers and staff who’ve been beyond supportive throughout my time in Lake Shore, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunities I’ve experienced because of these relationships.”
Making good relationships can be a great thing to have, as some of those relationships can last a lifetime.
For both Biddle and Silva, the 2024 Lake Shore Public Schools Kindergarten Roundup will be one memorable experience.
