           Dear Eighth Graders,

           I start writing this just after watching the first run-through of B e a u ty a n d the Beast. Your hard
           work, your team effort, your spirit, your combined talent, and the resulting quality o f the pro­
           duction, beating the odds of a tenacious virus, have become your class's trademark. Just as you
           so judiciously prepared the grand opening of the school year, you have not done anything "half
           baked" since then.

           Thank you for sharing your passions and dreams with the rest of us in your eighth grade speech­
           es. Your academic achievement, athletic prowess, artistic and dramatic gifts, and generosity have
           inspired Buckley's younger students and rewarded the faculty.

           As every class who has graduated from Buckley for the past seventy-six years you have made your
           mark and earned a special place in the history of the school.

           I feel so fortunate that you are my first graduating class, and I wish you the best of luck in all the
           fine schools in which you have gained acceptance.

           Best wishes,
