Dedication to the Class of 2017 Written by Grace Tianyue Que, Class of 2017

Graduates, esteemed faculty and administration, family, and friends, congratulations to York Community High School’s Class of 2017. We are the 99th class to graduate York. Technically speaking, we are the 100th minus one class to walk across the stage. Nevertheless, what we lack in timing, we make up for in spirit as we support each other, accept each other, and unify as a sea of green.

C.S. Lewis once wrote, “Now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great

Story which no one on earth has read: which goes on for ever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.”

Believe it or not, we have only just finished our prologue - we have only just begun. It

is now time to look forward to the next chapters in our lives; they will be the most riveting yet. In the beginning, our aspirations may have been to earn acceptable grades, attend a

brand-name college, or blindly meet social expectations. However, I believe that for the majority of us, these superficial goals are now not enough. Instead, we are now yearning to be the best versions of ourselves and to make the world a better place; we are now yearning to find a true source of happiness. We will respond to these desires by surrounding ourselves with the people we choose to be in our lives, rather than those predetermined by our class schedules. We will unapologetically chase after our passions. We will grasp that success and bliss do not only come from a letter grade, but also from generosity and introspection.

For all that, we know that it will be too easy for us to unintentionally conform to our

surroundings and lose sight of the things that now matter to us the most. We will need to make the distinct decision to act on becoming who we want to be, rather than who others tell us we should be. These upcoming years will be both terrifying and exhilarating; we will pick our battles, choose our friends, decide on our paths, and take the time to appreciate our own talents and struggles. As we write the next chapters, I implore everyone to find something meaningful, something that makes you truly happy. Our story, no matter where it may take us, is short and, ultimately, will come to an end. Our time is too fleeting to do anything less than worthwhile. The future is daunting, but we are courageous. So it goes.

Class of 2017, the 100th minus one class, we have concluded our prologue, and it is

now time to flip the page - it is now time for us to begin our stories.
