Words from ASB President Kyle Tran: “Our journey started four years ago, back in 2016. As freshmen, we had no clue of what or where our four years of high school would take us. In those four years, some of us have found passions, made new friends, created and lived through lifetime moments such as winning a league championship, winning powderpuff, or even with our lifelong classmates. This year hasn’t been the senior year that we’ve imagined. We didn’t get one last dance, one last game, or one last goodbye. But despite missing out on all those events, there was some positivity that came of it. We were united. We were together. And we are now here together in our hearts. From my 2020 vision, I’ve learned that we can be united and together, and when we are, we are capable of anything we set our minds to. We all wouldn’t be here without the love and support from our Pitman Staff, our loved ones, and our fellow graduates and friends who have been enduring the grind with each other. Regardless of where life takes us beyond this point, the Class of 2020 will do BIG THINGS. WE are the class with a vision. We are the class that will never settle, will never quit ... Roll Pride.”
Words from Principal Angela Freeman: “Graduates, you will face many challenges that will take you through mountains and valleys in this next chapter of your life; it’s how you react to adversity and how you handle the challenges you face. As an adult, I have had a wonderful mentor, Mr. Al Silveira. He has taught me that attitude is everything, you choose the attitude you will have, you choose how to react to today, and you choose how to react to your tomorrow. Surround yourself with people who support you and encourage your dreams. I have high hopes and dreams for each of you. Follow your heart, do what you love, and love what you do!”
