I can't believe the best four years of my life are already coming to an end. It feels like yesterday I was walking through those familiar glass doors for the first time in my brand new plaid skirt my mom bought for me. I remember the long carpeted hallways, lockers, the shiny gym floor. I was so nervous to be starting my first day of high school in an unfamiliar place where I didn't know anyone. But how quickly that changed. All of my teachers turned out to be so friendly and quirky. I felt like they could almost be my friends. The girls I met acted like they'd known me my whole life. It was the most welcomed I'd ever felt before. The contagious spirit in the school seemed to have an energy of its own, winding through the hallways, leasing students and faculty together in tow. One united family, I suddenly felt like I just become part of something big, something important excitement for the coming four years overwhelmed to me. Looking back, I'm so grateful for the wide variety of opportunities I was provided with that mercy that I know are going to benefit me in the future. There were so many after school clubs, athletics and elective classes to choose from. If it wasn't for mercy, I never would have known I had an interest in sign language or drama or archery, even when I have to go to my classes. In my least favorite subjects, the teachers were so innovative in using technology and an intimate classroom setting to keep us engaged in interested. I remember one time I had three exams in the same week, and I was so stressed out, my history teacher saw me panicking a little in the hallway. So she came over to my locker and encouraged me. Then she sent me to the Schools Council's office to go see Writer are adorable, light, proud, curly haired school support dog and the comfort and love I felt from everyone around me in that moment just reassured me. I was in the right place. Now, after four years, I can say that mercy is more than just school. It has truly become my second home. It was a place I never felt judged for being who I was or trying new things. The air was always filled with compassion, of love, and the sense of teamwork. There were so many things that I'm gonna miss about this place. I'm gonna miss the beautiful campus, the caring teachers, the warm community. The fuzzy writer hugs the cookies. All of these things came together to build such an unforgettable high school experience that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I know I will always have a home with mercy.
