JUNE 14, 2019, KEIZERTIMES, PAGE A3 A GRAD, continued from Page A1 “Never have I been around a collection of students who have made a bigger impact on my life, and the lives of everybody else they come in contact with,” Handley said. Handley encouraged the students to live their lives by leaning into four key principles: embracing adversity, honoring loved ones, celebrating other’s successes and carrying a growth mindset. “Each one of you had every excuse to give up on your goals at some point during your journey, but here you are. That resiliency paid off, and while difficult to accept, it’s adversity that shapes your growth as an individual,” Handley said. While the graduates had been working toward a common goal for 12 years – graduation, Handley said, the ideas of achievement will look different from here on out. “Continue to rejoice for those around you, even when their definition of a success differs from your own,” he said. “From now on you’ll have others depending on you under the immense pressures of everyday life. You will be relied upon for emotional support during the highs and lows, and you will be asked B D C to lift others with you as you continue to climb ahead. Luckily, we can send you off confident that you will take these challenges head on, and you will be successful.” The sole salutatorian for this year’s class was Adam Graneto. Co-valedicotrians were Noah Bach, Elisabeth Burleson, Hannah Corpe, Brandi Grunberg, Abigail Hawley, Rachel Herriges, Emma John, Josephine Lim, Tanveer Sandhu and Katy Wyatt.
