Middle School Graduation

On Saturday, June 19, we graduated 4 8th graders. The students looked awesome….the boys in maroon gowns and the girls in gold.  There was much excitement in the air. The 8th grade Representative, John Nolan-Tobias lit the class candle and began the ceremony. Our Salutatorian, Samantha Vasquez, and our Valedictorian, Natalie Barbosa, both gave incredible speeches, spurring their classmates on and encouraging them to “stay the course:. They spoke of fun times at Evangel and thanked many people. There speeches were inspiring and ended with always remembering to keep God first. Isabel Rosario, our dance teacher, danced to Whitney Houston’s “I Look To You”. This song was chosen to encourage to look to the Lord no matter what may come their way. Many awards were given out and then Diplomas and Bibles were given.  Mr. Marko spoke about spending 7 minutes with God, learning to work hard, and putting God first. The Class Rep. then lit a candle symbolizing a new beginning and the recessional began. We love you!!!!

An awesome time was had by all who attended. See you guys in September.
