e n i d e A 2 02 9 1 0 Music is an extremely significant part of life and is vital to any school. It is present in the classrooms, in school events,

on the playgrounds... Nearly everyone enjoys music, whether by listening to it, singing, or playing an instrument. Music has the ability to move people in ways that are unimaginable and, for many, listening to music can be an effective way to deal with their emotions. All of these reasons make music an important thing to celebrate. That’s why this Yearbook is so special.

The Yearbook Team planned this edition to celebrate a school year that was unique in many ways. It was a year in which we learned to face adversities, to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones and, in the end, we became more grateful for the small things in life. There is so much to remember and be proud of. After all, as Vivian Greene once said “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass...It’s about learning to dance in the rain!”

“I’m a Romper Room Do Bee A Do Bee all day long” - Romper Room, “Do Bee Song”

Here’s why bees represent our Kindergarten class in three simple reasons: 1. Because we work very hard, like the bees that visit about 100 flowers every day; 2. Because we build a community in our class, exactly like the bees do; 3. And because we all work together in different roles and help each other, like the bees do.

38 Kindergarten Pages 36-42 Kinder Pages.indd 3

28/05/2020 10:14:14

To our dear “Do Bees”: Wow! What an honour it was to help you grow into a beautiful, strong, and supporting community! Our “beehive” has been filled with kindness, friendship, and lots of love, and it was all built by YOU, our unique students. Your bright minds, powerful voices, and warm hugs will stay in our hearts forever…

It is now time to watch you leave Kindergarten, as you fly into new adventures! We are comforted by knowing that you will always carry your “Do Bee” spirits with you, wherever you go.

God bless your journey. We love you! Ms. Elizabeth and Ms. Luísa

Although our school year did not go as planned, we have many great memories to look back on.

You have grown to be beautiful people, inside and out, and we can’t wait to watch you conquer the world. We will miss you!

The most memorable part of this school year will probably be March, April, May, and June. What I am happiest about was how much you all grew in your study skills and maturity while online.

Luckily we had the Rep. Lago trip!

You faced many obstacles from the mumps, your teacher being ill and finally the Coronavirus. Then you had to become online learners and we all became people of the Zoom. This all made for a very different school year. I am proud of you for taking on these challenges and continuing to be responsible students who had to learn by different strategies and methods.

The moments we spent directly together were not as many as a “regular“ school year but became more precious in the end. All the best in the world of Sixth

I’ll remember that our Lion King performance was the best Halloween skit I’ve been a part of, and that you put on an incredible talent show. In RepLago I learned to never trust some of you with make-up, and you can be very sneaky in dodgeball. You taught me about Tik Tok and we laughed at some terrible jokes.

This year I can fondly look back on lots of great memories. I was amazed at how well you ran the first-ever Chapel Escape room, created thought-provoking CCP projects and super-slow speed greetings. Even when we were distance learning I still felt connected and close to you.

They say that hindsight is 20/20 and I think that I will look back at 2020 and smile.

Amanda Arruda Favorite Chapel Memory: Senior Day Plans after Chapel: Be your president Vó: Você é meu maior presente, seu amor não mede esforços. Vou sentir saudades de chegar em casa com o conforto do seu colo e carinho. Apesar da distância, você vai sempre estar no meu coração. Eu te amo, velinha. Mãe: Você é meu exemplo, me perco em tanta admiração. Eu sonho em ter sua força, dedicação e amor. Só nós sabemos de tudo que passamos juntas, tudo que eu sou hoje devo a você.

Por isso, todas minhas conquistas são suas, te amo infinito. Pai: Você me ensinou as lições mais valiosas que eu já aprendi. Você me inspira a ser uma pessoa melhor. Tenho o privilégio de te ter como pai, como amigo e como confidente.

Você é meu porto seguro pai, te amo. Família: Obrigada por me apoiarem em tudo, amo vocês. Li: I admire your strong personality, yet kind heart. From having deep conversations to celebrating “whatatimetobealive” news, we’ve always been together. Thank you for the unforgettable memories. Lu: Smi, I’ll miss the silly jokes, weird sounds and afterschool snacks (more like banquets) at your house. You inspire me with your contagious generosity, support and you always manage to brighten up my day by making me laugh. I’ll TRY not to become a true ‘foratemer’ and live without technology. In case I do, I’ll send you postcards. Nat: You’re the person I go to when I need a piece of advice or company to study with. Your intensity and craziness make you a friend that I want to have by my side forever. I can not put into words how grateful I am for our friendship & I hope it only continues to grow. Ana: Tchu, your cheerfulness, passion and unparalleled sense of humor make you remarkable. My Chapel years wouldn’t have been the same without you to share the most hysterical moments with. I’ll miss having you in class, although we can’t afford to have our “crises de riso” in college. Mema: Since the PlayPen days, you’ve been by my side. We’ve shared laughs, memorie. We’ve grown together so much through our ups and downs & even when we follow different paths, life always brings us back together. I know I can count on you for anything & you can count on me too (specially whenever you need someone to win an argument). Melzinha: You’re my daily dose of weirdness, the best company for a party and the star of the funniest & most nerds tik tok videos. Pk: The craziest person I’ve ever met, never lose your spontaneity and lightheartedness. I’ll miss having you around to tell me to go to FOLKS every weekend!

Cakes: Apart from being the most “desligada” person I’ve ever met, you’re also one of my most supportive and passionate friends.

Good luck with the pocotós. Bagunça: Thank you for the best bagunças, you’ve all been a part of my most cherished memories at Chapel. Carol: My duplinha, I can only wish you the best in this world, you deserve it all! Quim: I’m looking forward to the day that I’ll go to the movie theater to watch one of your movies. Rafa: Lambisgóio, it’s impossible not to laugh when I’m with you. Thanks for making my mornings better with your jokes & announcements. Mr. Murphy: My Chapel years wouldn’t be the same without our talks during lunch or your funny dances. You have the biggest heart Chapel will ever see, I want to be just like you when I grow up.

Ms. Inglesi: I’ve been so lucky to have you as a teacher for the last 4 years. You’ve seen me grow as a student and as an individual.

You’ve supported & helped me. Thank you for being an inspiring teacher. Mr. Vaughan: Your trust in my potential has made me grow so much! Thank you for never underestimating me and for your remarkable sense of humor. Ms. Bidoli: Thank you for helping & even crying with me. None of this would’ve been possible without you. We’re all so lucky to have you. Ms. Moro: Even with a full agenda you always make time for students. Thank you for your endless support and care. Class of 2020: we did it!

What will I do when we graduate? Naty: 10 years later, we’re finally here and I couldn’t be happier that I have you by my side. We understand each other more than anyone and relate to even the smallest things. I will miss our daily breakdowns, deep talks about life and the laughter at 3 am in the morning.

Also, if I ever need a new name, I’ll be sure to call you. Tati: You are one of the most thoughtful people I know. Thanks for everything.

Ms. Veronesi: Thank you for making 11th grade Bio awesome. It was the perfect way to start off my mornings. Ms. Blasingame: Your classes are perhaps the funniest classes I’ve taken. I love hearing your take on literature, politics and life in general. 16c will forever be engraved in my mind.

Thank you for everything. Especially for making bio fascinating. Mr. Kuroiwa: I know you keep denying that you’ll miss us, but I want to thank you for everything.

Bruno Ayoub Favorite sport: MMA Best Chapel Memory: Those with my friends Plans after Chapel: Be happy with those I love The person I am today is - for certain - the product of all the amazing (and sometimes not so amazing) people that have accompanied me throughout my 15 years at Chapel. For all the people that make up this complex, intricate and ever-changing equation that I am, my most sincere and profound ‘I LOVE YOU’.

Mamãe e Papai: Sei que a longa jornada desde que entrei na Chapel não foi fácil, muito menos barata.

Mas, hoje e sempre, vocês nunca tiveram a sombra de dúvida que investir em mim seria a melhor opção.

Todo o ensino que recebi em casa, em conjunto com o da Chapel, fazem eu ser quem eu sou. Só me resta agradecer aos dois, e aos nossos outros familiares também, que estiveram presentes ao longo do caminho. Amo vocês! Ainda temos muuito tempo pela frente!

Vamos fazer valer, juntos sempre!

Amyr, Biggas, Patrick and Vini: I have to say that you four are among the few people with whom I created a bond over a decade ago that still persists (with much more strength and trust) today. All of our uncountable experiences together - from age 3 to 18 - I know I will never forget. Truly and sincerely, you are my brothers. Lina, Luana and Pietra: We have all known each other for 15 years now, but it has been in the last few that you three became part of my life the way sisters are part of the lives of their brothers. I don’t have any sisters, but yet I do… Love you three forever! Enriave and Tutu: Two of my closest and best friends, today and always. I have never laughed as much with two people as I have with the two of you. The first thing that comes to mind are the UFC fight night sleepovers, and a smile pops up in my face every single time. I love you two! Quim: You too were once one of my closest and best friends! Don’t forget to call me for your film premiere! VDK and Gian: I have to be sincere, today our bonds are not as strong as they once were. But, for over half of my life the two of you have been part of my small group of best friends. It would take all the paper in the world to describe our experiences together… I hope you two will never forget them, because I won’t! Gabriel, Lucas and Pedro: Three ‘recent’ additions to the list of my close friends at Chapel. The laughter and experiences with you three are something that has marked my final years at school, every single day. Euro is just the beginning of our adult lives. Let’s keep this vibe on forever! Melzinha and Melzona: You two have also been a daily part of my life for the past years. It is needless to say that you are among the people I talk to the most, laugh with, and point fingers at! Also, you are among those that most help me out. Hope our friendship never dies, you two are really special for me!!! Caca, Carols, Amanda, Ana and Natalie: Hope you all have amazing futures, and never forget to keep in touch! Sofia, Luana M. and Valentina: My young sisters! Although you three are nerds beyond what I consider acceptable, I still love you. Never forget that… Enjoy your following year(s) at Chapel!!! Rick, Renan, Luchetti and Antonio: My friendship with the four of you was one of the most influential parts of my process of maturing. Before I became true friends with you, I would consider myself to be a child. I truly matured after our bonds strengthened. Profoundly, thank you for this. It is something I will never be able to give back. Hope our great friendships continue forever! Iñaki, Rodrigo, Rapha, Leo: Make your next year at Chapel worth it. Count on me for everything you need. There are countless experiences between us I will never forget! Love you guys! Mr. Murphy: thank you for taking care of me even when I didn’t deserve it… most memorable teacher (and dean) ever! For all of those that will continue adding to my equation, I hope that 15 years is only one mark of many on our paper!

Carolina Chade Favorite sport: Horseback riding Best memory: Worker’s breakfast at Chapel Plans after Chapel: Always be persistent

First of all, I would like to thank my family for enabling me to be part of the Chapel School community and for supporting me in everything during my journey in this school. You are the most important people in my life, and will always be. Secondly, I would like to thank everyone that contributed in such a positive way which made my years here at Chapel very special ones. Starting by the administration and faculty who are always pushing us students to be the best possible versions of ourselves. I never thought that I could meet a staff so inspiring, positive, and committed not only to their jobs but to the students.

My years at Chapel were full of new experiences, challenges and achievements. Those years with the Chapel community have been full of intense learning, not only from my teachers, but from friends, coordinators and staff as a whole. I would like to express my extreme gratitude to all of you who made those moments one of the most special of my life. I could never foresee that when coming to a new school I would meet this unique group of people who would become such special friends. I want to truly thank you all. Also, I wanted to thank some special friends, Bagunçeiros, eu amo muito todos vocês. You can’t imagine how special all of you became to me, from people I never dreamed of meeting, to family. I believe that this is only the beginning of our friendship. You are now an essential part of my life.

Christine Reimer Favorite sport: Sailing Best Chapel memory: Coffee in the senior lunch room Plans after Chapel: Be happy Mama and Papa, I am very lucky to have parents like you. You have dedicated so much so that Lisa, Mathias and I could have the best education and life experiences. I am very thankful for everything you do for us. Thank you for being so supportive in sailing and with school. Papa, thank you for helping me with math and physics. I am very lucky to have a dad that is so knowledgeable and willing to help.

Thank you for the time and effort you put into my sailing, so that I could have the best equipment and experiences to be successful.

Mama, I admire how dedicated and loving you are. What you have done for Lisa, Mathias and I is incredible. You have supported me in so many different situations. Mama and Papa, thank you for everything. I Love you very much. Mathias, you are more than just a brother. You are my practice companion, my biggest rival and my best friend. Thank you for all these experiences. I hope that you are extremely successful in school and in championships. I love you very much. Lisa, you are the person I look up too. You are the bravest sibling, the one that is always first. I am constantly learning from your mistakes and accomplishments. Thank you for being there for me, for helping me and making me grow. I love you very much. Alex, thank you so much for the last two years we spent together at Chapel. You are so smart and sweet, I hope you have a great time in college and I know that you will have a super successful life.

You are by far the most intelligent teenager I know and by far the most dedicated. I will miss your perfect handwriting, which looks like it was typed. I just think that you need to sleep more and need to learn to love animals. Tati, you are such a sweet human being.

Thank you for being my friend over the last years. Our partnership during physics and math was amazing. Without you I don’t know if I would have survived. I hope you have a great time in Europe and I will definitely go visit you. Anika, since my first day at Chapel you have helped me with homework and tech related issues. During these last three years you would always go out of your way to help me. Thank you so much for that. Don’t think you are getting rid of me. I will visit you during college and continue bothering you.

Neil, because of you I know too much about Cleveland. You are also the most politically correct human being I know. Good luck and have fun at college. I will go visit you and hopefully go to Cleveland with you one day. You can give me a complete tour. Ms. Bidoli, thank you so much for supporting me in the college process. If it wasn’t for you I probably still wouldn’t know what to do after high school. You guided me in the right direction and supported me all the way through. Thank you very very much. Mr. Campbell, thank you very much for helping me with my college essay. I don’t know what I would have done without your help. Mr. Vaughan, thank you for agreeing to write my recommendation letter, for helping me with my EE and for geography class with your very irritating gifs.

Mr. Santana, muito obrigada por esses últimos dois anos. Você foi um professor muito carinhoso que se importou e quis o sucesso dos seus alunos. Obrigada por tudo!

Ms. Blasingame, I will always remember my English teacher that had blue hair, walked around with a bright pink backpack and called everyone “hobo”. Thank you for being such an amazing teacher!

Isabel Maria Aboud Best Chapel Memory: Glee Club and history class.

Plans After Chapel: I don’t know!

Ma - Thank you for everything that you do and did for me these last few years. I never would have expected to love Brazil as much as I have come to, but these have been the best years of my life, so thank you. I love you mama.

Mar - Hey cutie :) thanks for brightening my days with your cuteness and grouchiness. I will miss you so so much! Hopefully you’ll be in Canada soon so you can continue to steal everything from my closet. Keep being the most dedicated and hardworking person I know, except for maybe Ta. Rhea - Oh baby, baby, baby. You are the craziest person I have ever met and I am so grateful to call you one of my best friends. From my first day in eighth grade, you included me and were so sweet, and you still are on my last day of high school. I am genuinely going to miss your weird boy stories and your acrostic poems. Speaking of… rambunctious, hot chocolate, eggplant, alkaline. Julia - Julihoe you were the first best friend I ever had and I will always be grateful for that. Always remember that you are insanely smart, beautiful and talented, and nothing will ever change that. I love you. V - Thank you for everything you did for me. I had an amazing time every day with you. Neil - My favorite triplet! You are so funny and sweet and I am going to miss you while you’re off doing amazing things to improve the world. Good luck Neil, and keep sending me pictures of Duckue please. Bava - I have loved sharing the same celebrity crushes as you because there’s always someone to talk to about how amazing Harry Styles and Leclerc are. You’re stubborn and funny and I love you. I hope you have an amazing time wherever you are, since you won’t tell us where you’re applying :) Will - Oh wiu… thanks for always giving me hugs and checking up on me if I look sad. I don’t know how you’re going to survive without me giving you girl advice. I still have a crush on you btw. Isa - Throwback to how you didn’t text me for two years because of your reply after Spock died. That’s it, love ya. Laura - You are so talented and strong and I wanted to thank you for creating the Glee Club. Without it, I wouldn’t have spent every Friday afternoon crying from laughter. Malu - Sorry that you had to sit in front of Vitor and I in math class and witness the awkward flirting for a whole semester. I still don’t understand how you do your eyeliner so well? I’m going to miss how crazy you become when you’re off school premises. Anika - You may have terrible handwriting but you’re going to go far. Good luck curing every major disease! Alex - Baldo, you are so annoying but I’m still going to miss you. My caps lock key will never forgive you for breaking it. Rocio - Roach, you’re so cute and funny and I’m actually going to miss you. Everytime I see the word “queue” I think of you. Mr. Plain - To the biggest Stones fan I know: thank you for the best classes filled with jokes and off topic discussions and, occasionally, history. I’m kidding, but I wish you all the best without your favorite students.

Isabella Gagliardi Favorite Sport: To be very honest, none Best Chapel Memory: Pep rallies and lunch time Plans After Chapel: Be stable Pai: Oi pai! ! Obrigada pela sua paciência comigo, por todos os cafés da manhã, e por me convencer que tudo ficaria bem. Você me acalmou nos momentos mais tensos (lembra o IOC? ? ). Eu te amo.

Mãe: Eu sei que eu não sou muito agradável quando você tenta me acordar às 6:30 da manhã. Desculpa kkkkkk. Obrigada por todas as vezes que você fez café no meio da tarde porque eu tinha que ficar acordada para estudar. Obrigada pela força, e por me acolher sempre que eu me sentia mal. Eu te amo.

Fefe: Heyo carrot. It was really fun going through existential crises with you, not knowing what we were going to do or where we were going. All I know, is you’re going far. Also, John John is still a blobfish.

PVDK: Thanks for hearing me rant about anything for hours on loop. Even if the subject repeated once or twice (or 100 times).

Thank you for all the smiles you brought and for being my anchor. You’re my go to for everything and you have the kindest soul I’ve ever met. I hope you know that a piece of me will always belong to you. I love you and I won’t miss you. Please call me always and whenever.

Julia: Ride or Die since 8th grade. Thanks for always being real with me, and for helping me out with everything (from dumb boy issues to the most important ones). Also, thanks for making me laugh when the IB made me want to cry. I’ll always remember you no matter what, also because of that stupid scar you gave me while playing volleyball with balloons.

Lau: ITGS classes became therapy sessions during break time. You give the most down to earth advice and somehow manage to back them up with the horoscope. I love that about you, you’re my favorite pisces hands down.

Mel J: I’m so grateful you joined our Art class. Your happiness is contagious and your honesty in random moments is very funny. I’ll miss you.

Mr. Rombaut: Gone but not forgotten. I miss your classes but I miss you and your jokes a lot more. Thanks for making me actually want to be at school at 8am on the first year of the IB. Mr. Campbell: You made a big difference in the way I think and write. Thank you for inspiring us to be better everyday.

much!

ving

ories!

Mama i Papa: Primer de tot, m’agradaria dir-vos que no sé qué faré lluny de vosaltres aquests pròxims. anys. Heu sigut el millor exemple a seguir, els millors consellers i millors pares que qualsevol persona en aquest món hagués pogut tenir. Us seré eternament agraïda per tots els ¨no et tanquis la porta¨ i els ¨que exagerada que ets filla¨. Us seré eternament agraïda per l’educació que he rebut durant aquests 18 anys de la meva vida. I per això, us seré eternament agraïda per totes les oportunitats que rebi amb el pas del temps. Gràcies per ajudar-me a trobar-me quan estava perduda, a motivar-me en hores de dificultat, i a ensenyar-me que tot a la vida es temporari, i que per això ho hem de viure tot al màxim. Estic tan contenta que haguem vingut aquí al Brasil… Ens ha unit i ajudat a entendre que la nostre casa es on els quatre estiguem junts, i no el lloc del mapa mundi on un viu. Per això, no sé com seré sense vosaltres a Barcelona. Però sé que ara mateix, no seria res sense vosaltres al meu costat. Papa i Mama, us estimo més que tot en aquest món. Gràcies. Toni: Tete, amb tu no sé ni per on començar. Podria explicar-te el que se’m passava pel cap el primer dia que et vaig veure a l´hospital; quan vaig conèixer el meu germanet… pero serian masses llàgrimes al recordar-ho. Gràcies per tots els somriures que m’has regalat fins ara i tonteries compartides. Gràcies per mai deixar que la casa es refredi i per insistir en passar temps junts. Però sobretot, gràcies per ensenyar-me que la família s’ha de cuidar i que això es pot fer tan sols dedicant somriures.

Em farás molta falta. T ́estimo molt peque. Felipe: Feee, I don’t even know where to start with you. Just, thank you for being there for me even from 8,383.07 km away. You made these three years seem easier than they actually were. I will forever be in awe with you, for all our silly moments and the smiles that you put on my face every time I was sad, worrying about the future. Do not forget me. I will certainly always keep you in my heart. I miss you, T’estimo. Rhea: Baby, thank you for always being there for me. For making me laugh at the most uncomfortable situations, and for reminding me that all sad moments are temporary in life. Thank you for always believing in me and taking care of me during these past years. I will miss you and always love you. Sophie: Sophie, So, Soso, I don’t know how you want me to call you, but let me also approach you as Bestie. Thank you for always being honest with me and making me realize things I didn’t want to see. Thank you for never judging me and always supporting my decisions. I am so lucky to have you by my side. I love you Nena. Pedrito: Pedro, thank you for always making me laugh and for lightening up my day with positive energy since we were 12. Thank you for being the big brother I never had. I’m going to miss you. Julia: Ju, thank you for being like a sister to me and taking care of me during my worst days. I am so happy that we got to be closer than ever, and for having shared and created more memories together. I want you to know that I will always be there for you, no matter what. I love you, Ju. Carols: Amore, thank you for all our songs, dances, and therapy sessions! Thank you for sharing your most precious side of you with me: What would we do without our music? Count on me for everything. Te amo. Isa: Isa, thank you for teaching me that: “Que será, será… whatever will be, will be. The future’s not ours to see.”. I love you baby. Fefe: Fefe, thank you for being the sweetest girl and sharing your incredible talent of music with me. I am so glad to have lived these amazing little moments on stage with you. Thank you, I’m going to miss you and your ukulele. Ana: Amore, thank you for all our laughs and emotions shared during these years. I’ll miss you, and always be grateful for having someone as fun as you that lightened my routine. Love you baby girl.

Gabriel: I’ve known you for most part of my life and I have to say that you are very important to me. I remember when we met in Riviera and you were hiding in the garage (that was funny but at the time I thought you were scary). Thanks for making my Thursdays feel like Fridays and for all the good memories that I’ll remember for the rest of my life. I hope we can still get to hang out and see each other as often as we do nowadays and also be able to have fun doing anything. To many more years of friendship! Love you man. I know you are going to have a lot of success in anything you decide to do in the future and I will be there so we can celebrate together.

Bruno: What can I tell you that I haven’t already? I truly am grateful for our friendship. Since that random hang out after the volleyball game at EAC we became very close. Every Friday after school and Saturday we went to your house. And every Sunday we went to the movies. I really miss you man and I wish you were here for this last semester. I know you are enjoying it there at LMU so I am happy for you. I hope that we keep talking and I wish that we can have more time to hang out during the coming years.

Pedrinho: Thank you so much for being down to do anything. You really are one of my best friends and you are very special to me.

I also wish we started hanging out sooner and I still remember that PE class when we almost fought. Gladly we were able to get past our differences and become real friends. You know how much I like when we hang out and the best part is getting to know the unknown. I still can’t believe you are going to Argentina after we travel, but I am sure we will keep in touch.

Mel: Thanks for constantly making me smile and for all the moments during the past year. I wish we became friends sooner, but hey!

We still did a lot of things this year. Good luck in the US. Tutu: To my videogame buddy and to the person I know I can trust and have a laugh with. Thanks for all of the premiers we went together. I still remember each one of them and also how we slept through the first class every day after the movie.

Esteve: You truly are the definition of fun. I will forever keep with me that trip we made to Boa Vista with Gabriel, we did have a lot of fun and were able to share a great time. July of 2020 is right around the corner and it’s going to be fire.

ABBVP: Thanks for 3 and a half years that consisted of a lot of sports, laughter and true friendship. Hope we keep in touch.

LPLM: Thanks for being so nice to me since I got to Chapel and also for all of the memories we share during these years. You really are special to me and I hope we get to see each other during the Euro trip. Luana, thanks for the help in math.

Class of 2021: Continue our legacy!

Maria Luiza Tavares Favorite Sport: Swimming Best Chapel Memory: Conversations in the senior lunchroom Plans After Chapel: Live!!!

It’s been a wild ride, but we’ve made it. I want to thank everyone who has supported me throughout IB and made my last few years of high school unforgettable. First, thank you to all my fabulous teachers, who have challenged me and gotten me to where I am now. Ms. Vompean, I can’t express how much I’ll miss your passion in every single Biology class - only you could have made the loop of Henle sound exciting and (so) cute. Ms. Blasingame, thanks to you I will spend the rest of my life analyzing the author’s use of formal and stylistic features. Thank you for your guidance, kind words, and fabulous hair that could add colour into any grey day. Ms. Bidoli, thank you for your limitless support and care. Your understanding and guidance made the impossible seem possible, and I will forever be grateful to you. Second, thank you to the entire class of 2020 for making these two years what they were. Julia, thank you for being the incredible person you are. I have only wonderful memories to look back on our times together.

Thank you for your warmth, and thank you for your friendship. You deserve all the good, great, amazing, and perfect things that lie in your future. I’ll miss you. Rhea, Laura, Fe, Isa, thank you for “the ones who stayed in São Paulo”. I wish you all the absolute best in the future - I will miss you guys! Sofia, what started as discussions about SKAM ended up being a friendship I’m so so grateful for. Thank you for all the laughs, rants, cookies, and Riverdale marathons. Thanks to you I now have countless pictures of medieval-Renaissance era portraits on my phone, I know ALL the latest news on the one and only Harry Styles, and I’m shocked anyone would accuse Ferrari of cheating (go Leclerc!) - and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. Vitor, let me just say: thank you for your kindness and all the laughs we shared. Our two years in French class wouldn’t have been what they were without our off topic conversations on Euro-culture, Reddit memes, and alternative music (sorry, Ms. Ana). Thanks to you, I now truly appreciate the balalaika. Ana, Naty, I’ll miss you two so much. From elementary until now, I’m forever grateful we had these last two years in school together. Will, Stephan, Patrick, thank you for always making each day a little funnier. We made it, boys! Alex, bless you. Third, to my siblings, obrigada pelo amor de vocês dois. Antônio e Helena, seja bom ou ruim, nós passamos por tudo juntos e eu mal posso esperar para ainda passar minha vida inteira, crescendo e aprendendo, com vocês. Porque nós somos irmãos, e irmãos são..?? Finally, and most importantly, thank you to my parents. Mãe, minha companheira, minha amiga. Eu não sei onde eu estaria sem você. É difícil colocar em palavras toda a gratidão e admiração que eu tenho por você pois me emociono sempre que penso no suporte e no amor que você me dá todos os dias da minha vida. Obrigada por tudo, tudo, tudo. Te amo. Pai, você será sempre meu guia e meu sensei. Obrigada por me introduzir aos clássicos da música que continuam na trilha sonora da minha vida até hoje. Obrigada por me ensinar a sentar embaixo do sol e apreciar todas as flores do jardim, que nem o vovô. Obrigada pela cultura, pelas oportunidades, e pelo amor incondicional que você trouxe para minha vida. Aos dois, saibam que tudo que eu escrevi aqui, mesmo se fosse multiplicado por 93836283720239, não é igual à gratidão e ao amor que eu sinto por vocês do fundo do meu coração. Eu amo vocês. Muito, muito, muito.

I could write on every page of this book and I wouldn’t be able to thank you enough. Roba, I know dealing with me is hard, but you somehow manage to do it. Thank you for giving me the best advice even though you know I will do the exact opposite. You are part of my family. Te amo! ANA: Who knew we would grow so close? So many jokes, memories, laughs, fights and dreams... we’ve come a long way and have much farther to go. Your naive and charismatic way of being lightens up my days. Don’t ever let anyone kill that spark that you have within you because it is what makes you so special. You know me better than I know myself and our friendship means the world to me. Thank you for our random sleepovers and for always keeping me company when I’m bored. Love you.

You taught me to see the world as a better place. You were my first friend at Chapel, and I hope we keep being friends. Thank you for always listening to me. Te amo! SOPHIE: To the girl with the prettiest smile: I never saw you being negative about anything. This made my last years at Chapel much better. Whenever I was sad, I would look at you, and be happy. You mean a lot to me. I’ll miss you! MANU/RAFINHA: It’s been a pleasure to watch you both grow. Please visit me. And remember that you two are the sisters I’ve never had. My best advice to you two: mess around, because these are the moments you’ll take for life. I love you. LIVS/NANDA/ MARY/ROCIO: To my babies: I value you all so much. You will definitely be part of the group of people I will miss the most. I always say this, and I will say it again: I wish I was born in ‘03. Although I’ll be some miles away now, always count on me. I love you. PK: You are unique; don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. BRUNO/TUTU/VINI: Thank you for making going to school more bearable. I’ll miss you guys! PLINCIPE I admire you. BAGUNCA: I wouldn’t have done it without you all. MR. MURPHY: You were the one who taught me the most about life.

Eu amo vocês e sei que posso contar sempre com vocês, em qualquer situação. Leo/Omar: I couldn’t be more grateful for having you both as brothers. Although it will be hard living far from each other, I know that our bond is eternal and that I can always count on you guys.

Thank you for everything.

Carols: These last two years wouldn’t have been the same without you. Whenever I needed you the most, you were always there to help me overcome any frustrations. Thank you for all the special moments, which I will never forget. You are incredible and will have an amazing future. Vini: After all these years of friendship, I consider you my brother. You are one of the people I trust the most and that I know always has my back. You’re someone I can be myself around.

Luana: You are one of the kindest people I know; sometimes you are too kind in situations that you should be harsh. Never change your personality because it makes you a wonderful person. Even though I love annoying you, you are one of the people I trust the most. Amyr: You have been my best friend since pre II. Nothing has changed even though you left two years ago. You are and will always be a brother to me. Lina: You’re one of my closest friends as well. Thank you for not liking to go out too, it makes our friends not make fun only of me.

Patrick Van Der Klugt Favorite Sport: Basketball and Kitesurfing Best Chapel Memory: BIG 8 and the moments where I got to create new memories with my friends and especially my girlfriend Isabella Plans After Chapel: To study in the Netherlands and pursue my dream of being an engineer and a scientist

Family: Thank you for always being there for me, even when I am acting extremely unbearable. Thank you for always supporting me with my dreams, regardless of my bad academic performance and me forgetting to hand in homework. I love both of you more than anything in the world and I can’t thank you enough for everything you have given me. I would also like to thank my brother for always supporting me and having my back.

Although we might fight sometimes and have disagreements, I will always love you from the bottom of my heart. I don’t get to say any of this much but always know that you will have my support if you ever need it.

Isabella: I want to start off by expressing my gratitude to you. I’m not the best at expressing my feelings through text, but I wanted to say thank you for all the memories that we have together and for all the memories we will create. Thank you for never asking me to be anything other than exactly what I am. You take all my negatives and make them positive. We both know that I don’t always look my best in pictures, and Babe, there are times you’re quite the mess yourself. But we stand together in our imperfections. I hope you know that I’ve loved you for a while now and you will always have a huge, special spot in my heart. You have been there for me during my hardest and darkest moments and I can’t thank you enough for having my back no matter what. I know I can be very clumsy and difficult to live with and I appreciate you for enduring me. I love the way you smile at me and I love the way you look. I love your jokes because of the way we laugh at them afterwards, like the time we first saw that “pepe” meme on google. I love your imperfections and I love how we look at each other differently than everyone else. By the time you read this, I will have probably already told you this but, I love you.

Carol: You will always be my best friend forever. Regardless of the moments where I pushed you away, our friendship always managed to stay intact and is stronger than ever. I will always savor the memories we have together, going to Cumbuco or just simply our hangouts at the mall. I will miss those moments after practice or after a game where we would 1v1 in basketball and you would always “beat me”.

Will: William, you beautiful man. I’ve loved you ever since we started playing that first league game in 7th grade. You have been by far one of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life. I know often times I am a pain to deal with (with my dumb jokes and my teasing), but you’ve always been there regardless.

Julia: You are up there with the people I admire the most. You are one of those people that is always there to help me when I need advice and when I’m in my lowest moments crying on the floor. Thank you for everything, I could not be more grateful for what you gave me. I love you with all my heart and you are the best. I’ll tell you all my other feelings in person but I’m running low on characters.

Ustedes me eseñaron a ser la persona que soy hoy, y estoy muy agradecido de que hayan sido ustedes ya que los admiro en todo aspecto. No puedo agradecerles suficiente en que confien en mi cuando les pido para hacer cualquier cosa, ya sea ir a comer afuera, o ir a una fiesta. Muchas gracias por ser todo para mi, los amo mucho.

It is incredible how a class will never be boring when we are sitting next to each other, at least until we are moved apart. I hope that we can keep contact even when we’re in different countries. Thank you for being there. Carol: Thank you for making me have a great time when talking to you, giving me advice and making me laugh. You are easily the most dedicated girl I have ever met, you will be able to achieve everything you ever desire. When you want something you will go for it but remember to not get scared at the end. Remember me when you are famous. Gabriel: From not knowing you to being my twin brother, our friendship went from nothing to everything in a matter of seconds. There is no one more physically and mentally like me than you. Thank you for making the school years fun. Can’t wait for our EURO. Laura: You are the best. You have the best personality I have ever seen, you are funny, smart, honest and dedicated. I couldn’t have gone through all these years without your advice on everything. You make me laugh with everything that you say, especially when you rant about some silly problems. tkm. Lucas: When you entered Chapel I had never thought that we would be like we are today. We have fought many times but ever since we’ve gotten to know each other you’ve become one of my closest friends. Someone who I can rely upon when something happens to me. You became the person who I love to go to parties and do the most random things with. I will never forget the random parties and our swimming lessons. Mel: I cannot describe what school is when you are not around. You are the most amazing person I will ever meet. Never change who you are. Your openness about everything is what makes you so unique and funny. You make me burst into laughter with the most random conversations we could possibly have at the most random moments. When I am with you, I feel that I can talk about anything and that I will be accepted and loved regardless of what I say. I hope that we never lose touch and can see each other another time. Thank you for everything. Rocio: The one that I adore the most. I have an incredible friendship with you and I would hate it if it ended. We became very close since we started to know each other and it hasn’t stopped ever since. I can say anything to you and you will support me even though we will get into some arguments when saying our opinions. You always make me laugh with your never-ending stories about some new drama. I look forward to seeing you in Argentina. Bagunca: IN

Pietra Kouri

Favorite Sport: Soccer and Muay Thai Best Chapel Memory: Splash Parties and NR Plans After Chapel: Be the CEO my parents always wanted me to become and surpass Kylie Jenner on being the youngest billionaire in history Mamãe: Minha melhor amiga, palavras não são o suficiente para te agradecer por tudo que você já fez por mim. Me tornei a mulher que sou hoje graças a você, e espero ser para os meus filhos metade da mãe que você é para mim e para meus irmãos. Te amo!

Papai: Papai, você foi e pra sempre será meu primeiro amor! Tudo o que sou e sei é graças a você. A cada dia que passa me encho mais de orgulho por ser sua filha. Saiba que por mais que esteja completando mais uma etapa da minha vida, serei pra sempre sua filhinha! Te amo! Will e Dedé: My eternal bodyguards! I couldn’t have asked God to bless me with more caring brothers than you two. It makes me extremely proud to see the men you have become! May we enjoy Mykonos together this summer! Love you! Juju: Little one, all I can wish for you is luck in your last years at Chapel. It will be tough, but I’ll always be here for you no matter what. Never stop being the girl with the purest heart I’ve ever met. I’ll always have your back, love you! Cabritas: Ordinary girls wear pink on Wednesdays, but we eat six McDonald’s happy meals. Fifteen years and counting… Words aren’t enough to thank you two for always having my back no matter what. For many more years of sisterhood, Cláudio, and Valter.

Love you two! Nui: I’ve known some of you for only two years now and others for fifteen years. As time never negatively affected our bond, distance certainly won’t. No matter what path each and every one of you take in your lives, you’ll forever be the sisters God gave me. I love you all! Libas: Together since Pre II. Words aren’t enough to thank you all for the memories and inside jokes.

Lebanon stands at the International Festival will certainly miss us. May our friendship last many more years, and good luck to all of you taking the vestibular - especially Bruno (try to get on time). I love you all! Bagunçeiros: Although many of you will study abroad, I’m 100% certain that the bond we’ve created will last forever. I’m very grateful for having each and every one of you in my life. For those leaving Brazil, good luck, and for those sticking around, may the CHAOS continue! Ms. Torino, Ms. Marisa, Ms. Dani, Ms. Bidoli: I’m sure my presence will be missed in the teacher’s hallway looking for candy. I’m sorry for the hard times I have given you all, and thank you for never giving up on me. Your seats are reserved for my wedding! Mr. Bruno, Mr. Campbell, Mr. Vaughan, Mr. Padilha, Mr. Taylor: Although 90% of the time I raised my hand to say something it was usually me complaining, I’m very grateful to have had you all as my teachers. Your classes will certainly be missed. Ms. Lais, Ms. Blasingame, Ms. Moro, Ms. Vompean, Ms. Veronesi: Although you all have a profession that demands to teach specific subjects in class, I’m 100% certain I have learned more about life than about Shakespeare, Getúlio Vargas, Iracema or white blood cells.Thank you for always supporting me in rough phases. Mr. Murphy: Thank you for being YOU! My mornings would have certainly been worse if it weren’t for your good morning’s. I will miss having DC, and I’ll be waiting for my invitation to São Roque. Class of 2020: 3800 characters aren’t enough to thank each and every one of you for everything. The jokes, memories, school trips and senior skip day will be kept in my memory forever. Grades have not and will never determine our intelligence. We are all capable of achieving whatever we want to if we believe in ourselves. Despite our differences, I have certainly learned a lot with our coexistence. I love you guys, you will be missed.

Não existem palavras que possam explicar minha gratidão por tudo que vocês fazem por mim todos os dias.

De você, Mamis, de me acordar todos os dias e me levar a aula e de você, Pops, por me dar meu lado cômico e engraçado (todo mundo agradece), além de muitas outras coisas. Não consigo amar vocês mais do que já amo. Tamo junto parças. Maricota: Dona Maricota, meu BB, eu sei que eu sou chato e eu sei que você sabe disso. Eu te amo. Desculpas ser grosso com você (mesmo que você mereça às vezes). Adoro sua companhia sempre e seu coração puro e fofinho.

Boa sorte em viver sem mim! Carols: Meu amor, meu outro BB, nunca existiu um irmão tão orgulhoso quanto eu. Você me inspira todo dia com seu trabalho e habilidade de ser original. Eu quero um dia ser tão ousado e bem sucedido como você. Eu te amo.

Lele: Sup girl. First of all, thank you for being somewhat patient and caring with me the last couple of years: I know the challenge that this is and I will forever respect you for it. Thank you for everyday inspiring me to be a better, more loving, more caring and more compassionate person. I have never felt so comfortable with someone as I am with you. Good luck next year without me. You will forever have a place in my heart <3. Biu: Você sabe que você não merece isso, mas to fazendo porque sou do contra. Nunca sabia que ao vir para São Paulo eu ia ganhar não só um lar novo, mas um irmão de sangue. Nunca fui tão grato por ter a sua amizade; das nossas partidas de 2K as confraternizações no Lu, aprendi e vivi muito com você. Te amo também. Ed: Fellow “carioca”, you have given me a friendship I never expected. From the moment you thought I was a nerd for walking through the hallways with my books in my arms. To the last moment we stepped on the Big 8 field to annihilate the Gators, I was blessed to have a bro in you. #fluzão #euamotucão Lala: (Not so) Big sis, you are the sister I never thought I would have. I know we fight a lot, but that’s because you are truly annoying. I look forward to being close to you during our college days as we shall “run the city” and party together. (I really like your brother too, please tell him) Sofia: Sofia Buazar, or the living embodiment of the Grumpy Dwarf, thanks for giving me advice. I am glad we call each other friends despite the unnecessary aggression. We good, bro. Vitinho: Thank you for the constant disapproval of my English-speaking abilities. You certainly made these years way more fun since the constitution we worked on with Marcos in 8th grade. Thanks bro. Bball: I only got love for my real brothers out here. We balled out as a family. Much luv, get them dubs next year. #ballers. Carol: Dear fake carioca, thank you for being the good hearted friend you are; I would never have endured physics if it was not for your companionship and help. #bros. Will: 지난 4 년간 감사합니다. 사랑해. Amanda: Thank you for the friendship and all the fun through high school. I don’t know what school would have been without you and Geleca. Vini, Biggas, Tutz, Gabigol, Pedro: Ma boyz. Blessed to call each and every one of you friends. I love yall for the memories, parties and trips. Blessed to have shared courts, fields and raging celebrations with all of you. Pikou, Lina: Thank you girls for all the fun we have had over the last couple of years. You guys truly are “habibi” to me. I would never have been able to endure the change between LC and Chapel without you guys. Benny Boo: Thank you for. DC: teaching me. Moro: to be better.

Rhea Kapur Favorite Sport: Gymnastics Best Chapel Memory: Trip to Brasilia + all the MUN trips Plans After Chapel: Go to college and find a job that makes me happy Mom and Papa: Thanks for everything you have taught me, Anika and Neil throughout our lives. Thanks for providing us with the experiences we have and always supporting us. I don’t know what I’m going to do without your daily hugs and advice, but I know that wherever I ever I end up, I’ll do well because of everything I’ve learned from the two of you. There are no words that can express how grateful I am to have you as my parents. Anika and Neil: Wow it’s been a crazy 18 years. Thanks for being by my side for all of it. You guys have been my number 1 supporter through it all. I don’t know what I’m going to do without the two of you.

Isabel: You already know this because I tell you at least 20 times a day, but I actually love you so much. We pretty much end up crying laughing every day because I have the best time ever when I’m with you. Whether we’re at a sushi restaurant drawing with soy sauce, or just talking in accents during history class we always have fun together. You’re also always there for me. You’ve literally seen me at my worst and I know that whenever I need a friend I can count on you. But I think your best quality is your dolphin impression.

Lau: I can’t even express how grateful I am to have met you. You have been there for me during my worst days and are always so happy for me on my best. I truly can’t thank you enough for all the sleepovers, trips to McDonald’s, and hugs. I already know you’re going to be an amazing businesswoman/dubbing actress. Will: I don’t know what I’m going to do without you. You always listen to my problems and make me feel better when I’m upset. Also, I don’t care that we’re going to different universities, I’m still calling you before every math test. Ju: You are literally the first person I text when something good or bad happens. I’m sure you’ve already listened to about 100 voice messages of me crying after a bad day and you’re probably going to get 1000 more when I’m away from you. I’m always going to be here for you no matter what and I know you’re going to be the best veterinarian ever! Isa: I’m really glad I’ve been able to have you by my side through everything for the past 6 years, especially the mental breakdowns we had together.

You always give the best hugs and I don’t know what I’m going to do without you. Who else am I going to cry with over facetime?

Sofia: We always joke that I used to be scared of you, but I’m so glad we became friends over the past couple of years. Keep learning the craziest languages and being the cutest ballerina ever. Malu: I’m going to miss you a lot. You’re always fun to be around and I’ve loved every one of our bread days. Fefe: We’ve made so many memories together. Whether we were at a MUN conference or Big 4, I’ve always had so much fun with you. You’re literally the cutest person. I’m going to miss our adventures together. Vitor: History class with you was unforgettable. Thanks for making me laugh a bunch. I’m still better than you at ping pong. VDK: I’m really happy we became friends. You are super fun to be around and I’m going to miss you a ton. Have fun in the Netherlands! Carols: My basketball buddy! You’re one of the most hardworking people and I know you’re going to be successful wherever you end up! Christine and Alex: Two of the smartest people ever! Keep being the coolest people I know. Luisa and Amanda: You guys made every MUN trip 1000 times more fun. I’m truly going to miss always laughing with you two. Good luck with everything! Mr. Vaughan: Thanks for being such a great teacher and MUN advisor for the past 6 years. Mr. Campbell: You were the best teacher, coach, MUN advisor, and EE advisor. Thanks for everything! Ms. Blasingame: Thanks for the best English classes ever. They were always fun even though you called us hobos a bunch.

Rodrigo Luz For the Class of 2020, I preferred saying the more important things in person, so I decided to try something different. I randomly selected songs from my Spotify account for each of you (some of you are listed by last name or nickname). The initial idea was to actually choose the songs myself, but the task proved too complicated. Some of you were luckier than others. At least try to give a listen. And sorry for the mess.

Para as mães do 4 Brownies, Tia Pri, Tia Re, Tia Teka e minha mãe, agradeço muito vocês por sempre estarem torcendo por meu sucesso (e obrigado pelos brownies). Também não posso esquecer os tios, Tio Juca, Tio Vini, e o meu padrinho, Tio Gui. Seus times de futebol são piores, mas mesmo assim agradeço pelo apoio. Bruno, Guga, Zé, Fe, Gu, valeu por sempre me acompanharem todos esses anos, por todos os jogos de Fifa, pelas viagens para Ibiúna, e por tudo que fizemos.

Finalmente, para a minha família, Ju, Dani e Fe. Vai ser estranho viver sem vocês. Tem coisas que me irritavam, mas acredito que até vou ter saudades destas coisas, como as discussões de carro e as broncas. E aí tem as coisas que eu amava, coisas que com certeza vão me fazer sentir saudades: viajar juntos, ver filme juntos, e o carinho de vocês. Amo muito vocês, agradeço por tudo e espero que vocês me visitem muito para matar a saudade.

I can’t believe I’m already graduating. The past three years in Chapel School have created many unforgettable memories and have become a springboard for me to grow personally. For me, it was a challenge to use an unfamiliar language both in class and in everyday life. Fortunately, thanks to all of the Chapel teachers and students that actively helped me I was available to overcome such difficulties much more easily than I thought. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for helping and understanding me! Thank you, class of 2020, and all the teachers!

Sofia Bavaresco Favorite Sport: Ballet Best Chapel Memory: Brasília Plans After Chapel: Become an adult Mãe e Pai: realmente não acho que existam palavras (ou caracteres) o bastante para expressarem o quanto eu sou grata por vocês! Sei que, independentemente do que acontecer, vocês sempre vão estar do meu lado, como vocês sempre estiveram. Obrigada pelo apoio, pelas risadas, pelas conversas filosóficas, pelos puxões de orelha e, principalmente, pelo amor. Rach: we may be 7,681 km apart, but I know you will always be by my side no matter what. I feel like we are opposites of each other and the same person at the same time (but isn’t that what sisterhood is all about?) You have taught me so much and you will always be my ultimate idol. Love you!

Vitinho: They say that after 7 years of friendship it will last a lifetime, well I guess we were two years short. Jokes aside, you are (and always have been) my best friend! I want you to know that you mean a lot to me and that I am really glad we sat at the same table in that random art class. Love you. Malu: selfishly I am very grateful you moved back from Austria, otherwise I might never have experienced how great it is to be your friend. You are always there for me: be it to rant about life, to eat pizza, watch stranger things… I definitely look forward to all the adventures (too cheesy?) we are certain to experience. Ju: I never have and might never get to understand your humour, but it is so contagious that even without understanding it would make me laugh. So, thank you for always making difficult moments bearable and wonderful moments even more wonderful. You are an amazing person, friend, and to top it all off, a true genius! Rhea: It might have taken a while for us to find each other, but I am so glad we did. Laura: your energy is contagious, you light up the room wherever you go. I know I can count on you for everything so thank you, truly. Isa + Fefe: First thing: I aspire to have your aesthetics! Second: thank you for all the laughs and deep conversations. Alexis: you are so much more than just my “neighbour”: you are such a cool guy and I cannot put into words how much your friendship means to me. Will: you are one of the kindest people and I want you to know that I appreciate our friendship. Vdk: Formula 1 jokes aside I just want to let you know how much of a cool guy you are. From taking Math HL to being a photographer: you rock. Rafa: I am proud of you. And I want you to know that I’ll miss looking back to you during interesting BSS classes and our riveting Stuco meetings. Joaquim: Next time I see you, I hope you are a renowned tv director (or maybe a revolutionary). Alex C.: you are most definitely the brightest person I know!

Lina + Luana + Pietra: I know that whenever I think back to Chapel you three will always come to mind. Pedro Loureiro: keep being you. As que ficaram em SP: I am scared. Scared of going different places and being away from each other. From the support, from the laughs, the bread making. But I know you guys to know that no matter where each of us end up or what we do, you guys will always be in my heart. Ms. Moro: Ms. Moro! Muito obrigada pelos chás, conselhos, feedbacks e apoio! Você é uma verdadeira intelectual.

Mr. Vaughan: There is no one I can put into words how much of an amazing teacher you are! So this is what I have to say: you are an amazing teacher. Ms. Bidoli: You helped me so much not only with college, but also shaping me as a person. Ms. Blasingame: Thank you for teaching me not only how to write properly but how to be myself.

Plans After Chapel: Make money Pai e mãe, sem vocês nada disso seria possível. Sou muito grato por tudo que vocês fazem por mim.

Obrigado por tudo que me ensinaram. Espero poder retribuir toda dedicação e esforço um dia. Amo vocês! Juju, as you said, “Words can’t explain the bond we have’’. 4 years ago you were where I am.

Time flies doesn’t it? You have taught me to enjoy every Chapel moment as if it were the last. After all, one day it will be the last. I am blessed to have such a loving and devoted sister like you. You have always been there for me and I will always be there for you. Thank you for all the lessons that you taught me. Our bond is eternal. I love you sis! Try not to cry at my graduation. Bruno, I remember when we were kids playing with blocks on the stairs of your grandmother’s house. Time has passed very fast. Ever since that moment, I have trusted and loved you. Thank you for all these years of friendship.

I am happy to say that you are and will always be my Brother. Biggas! I have known you for 16 years now. You are the best friend I could have ever asked for. I will forever remember all the moments of joy and happiness that we experienced together. The “ViVi” partnership never fails. I love you! Luluzinha! You are one of the people that make the world a better place. Thank you for being there for me when I needed you. You have been my best friend for so long. I love you! And yes, we will still be friends in College.

Thank you for all the great moments we had together. I will forever cherish our bond. Dale Mengão. The Great Enrique Esteve: You have been my friend for more than 10 years.

Vitor Correa Favorite Sport: Soccer Best Chapel Memory: Portuguese with Ms. Moro and History with Mr. Plain Plans After Chapel: Leader of the free world, I guess Mom & Dad (E Thor): Muito obrigado por tudo que vocês fizeram por mim e por me ajudar com todos meus problemas. Eu sei que sempre posso contar com vocês. Ich liebe dich!

Gio: Te amo muito, mesmo sendo chata. Obrigado pelo quarto novo e pelos vários conselhos de vida. Te amo mais que tudo.

Isabel: Thank you for always being by my side. You taught me a lot about myself and made me a better person, so for that I can’t thank you enough. Many trips and countless hours of texting brought so much joy into my life. Love you!

Bava: I’ve been thinking about what to write for you since the 8th grade. Even though we fought a lot, I always knew it would all work out in the end. And countless failed brigadeiros later, you’re still someone I know I can count on. Mandami un sms quando tu peux parler alle Sprachen ты хочешь учиться. Love ya.

Malu: A haiku: Tu es une bonne amie, Mais rappelez-vous toujours; Tik tok sur le clock. Bonne chance, m’amie Germanophone. Much love and good vibes!

Rafa: I’m so glad you improved your English. All those hours of me tutoring you built a great friendship. Wish you all the best in New York. Text me when you’re president. Love you.

Will: You were my best friend for years, and you were always someone I could rely on. Lolla 2018 with you is one of my favourite memories; Love you.

Nich: Even though your memes are too advanced for me, I can still appreciate your amazing sense of humour. Thanks for always making me laugh, and for being a great friend. Love ya.

Naty: Text Joseph for your comment. Love you! (But don’t tell Joseph).

Joseph: Text Naty for your comment. Love you! (But don’t tell Naty).

Rhea: Even though you were always stealing Isabel away from me, I always appreciated your jokes and your positive attitude. Gonna miss you. Still waiting for you to ask me for some Swahili music recommendations. Bangers only.

IB French/Ms. Inglesi: Merci de me donner toujours un endroit pour parler de mes problèmes et en apprendre plus sur moi-même. <3.

Facção: More than 3 years of memes, two coups and some great late-night talks. I’ll miss you guys, and the memes.

Ms. Moro: Para a professora que mais impactou minha visão do mundo: obrigado. Você me ensinou muito sobre o mundo, a literatura e o que é um verdadeiro “intelectual”. Ah, e obrigado pelo chá!

Mr. Plain: Thanks for listening to countless hours of my rants about Thatcher and the IRA. Your class was always the highlight of my day, even if you doubted my love for history. My favourite classes were the ones where we would sit and chat about old rock bands (it’s still history, technically!). I’ll miss you and your classes more than you probably think I will.

Mr. Vaughan: Thanks for all the endless laughs and support, even outside of class. And, in case you’re growing your hair out again: cut your hair.

Ms. Blasingame: Loved your classes, even when we would annotate depressing poems for hours on end. I hope I never have to see another “16C” next to my writing again. Good luck with Hades, you hobo.

Class of 2020: Loved our hoodie.

Now comes the really exciting part when you will make your own decisions about where you go and what you study. May all of your hopes and dreams come true! Enjoy this next stage and always do your best. Remember that hard work, determination, and persistence will get you where you want to go. We hope that you find your path and love what you do.

Since you were little you made our lives happier with your unique sense of humor, kindness, and your calm presence.

You are truly one of best people that we know. We admire how you get along with people and greet everyone you see with a smile and a friendly word. Best of luck in this new part of your life. We will miss you so much and are excited about all the new experiences and challenges ahead of you. Dad will miss his soccer partner so much. Allianz Park won’t be the same without you. Boa sorte, amigão!!! Love, Mom and Dad Amanda Arruda Filha, meu coração transborda de tanto orgulho de você todos os dias, mais um ciclo termina agora para que você abra outro muito importante, saiba que você é fruto de todo seu esforço, e isso posso falar com toda convicção que foi exclusivo seu!

Essa mulher linda por dentro e por fora que brilha os olhos de todos que a conhecem, continue caminhando firme sem perder sua doçura em direção a suas conquistas! Você merece o mundo a suas mãos, eu estarei eternamente ao seu lado, saiba que meu amor é seu, meu colo é seu ........... e suas conquistas são as minhas também! Amo você e tenho orgulho da mulher linda, doce e forte que és! Obrigada por tudo.

Bjos Mamãe Você escolheu estar nessa escola, trabalhou, estudou, fez o teste e foi aprovada; Você desejou participar da Youth Assembly, trabalhou, estudou, se esforçou e foi selecionada; Você quis fazer a diferença fora da escola e participar do Meninas do Brasil, onde trabalhou, estudou, debateu, discutiu e se empenhou, hoje você lidera o Comitê; Você quis ser membro do NHS, trabalhou, estudou teve excelentes notas e foi aceita nesse seleto grupo, depois de muito empenho e dedicação tornou-se Presidente. As pessoas dizem que você tem SORTE, e eu concordo. “Sorte é o que acontece quando a preparação encontra a oportunidade.” Continue trabalhando, estudando e desfrute do seu sucesso. Papai Ana Luisa Fujiwara Querida Tchu, É com grande satisfação que vemos mais uma etapa cumprida com muito empenho, dedicação, mas acima de tudo, com muita alegria. Nada é por acaso, sua volta pra Chapel em 2016 foi o melhor que podia ter acontecido tanto pelo resgate de velhas amizades quanto pelo encontro de novos amigos, sim, pois a parte social da juventude no Brasil é imensurável e indescritível. Privilégio é ter vivenciado isso e estar aberta aos novos desafios que o College lhe trará. Faça o seu melhor sempre que estaremos por perto supervisionando

e curtindo. Você é um doce como filha e como irmã.

We love you. Com carinho.

Do seu papis Pedrão, da sua mamis DONA Priscila e do seu querido irmão João Pedro Anika Kapur You are precious to me. I thank God for every day I have with you. Now, after having cherished you for 18 years, I will share you with the rest of the world. It’s been an adventure where there have been some terrifying moments and, thankfully, many joyous occasions. You have a lot of mettle and are a true survivor. I marvel at how you employ your incredible courage and drive to help you blaze a path to realizing your goals. Just remember to have some fun along the way. You are my love.

Love Always, Mom Health challenges robbed you of part of your childhood, and caused you to take on adult responsibility at an early age. You embody life’s lessons that it does not help to complain about the unfairness of the circumstances, but rather to face and resolve any issues head on. We count our blessings every day that one doctor’s prognostication that you only had three months to live was incorrect. But please pay attention to your health. We will always love you and be there for you. Papa Arthur Mayer Arthur (Tutu)!

Estamos muito orgulhosos de você. Uma etapa importante da sua vida iniciada em 2005 está sendo concluída agora em 2020. E depois de longos 15 anos, você, ainda tão jovem, já tem que decidir qual carreira vai seguir. É muito importante que a profissão escolhida te faça feliz, pois assim a sua realização profissional será muito mais fácil. Tenha sempre em mente que aquilo que você conhece pouco, terá que se aprimorar e naquilo que já é forte, terá que se fortalecer ainda mais. O seu futuro ainda está por ser escrito e o melhor disso é, que somente você pode escrever a sua história.

Que Deus esteja sempre junto de você nessa nova caminhada e lembre-se também que, se precisar de algo, estaremos sempre aqui para colaborar e dar apoio em suas decisões, como foi desde o início da sua caminhada no Pre I. Te amamos muito e o nosso maior desejo é muito simples, “QUE SEJA FELIZ”. Daqui para frente, a bola está com você.

Torcemos que faça muitas cestas de 3 pontos.

Paulo, Helena e Raul Tutu, nunca duvidei que você conseguiria kkkkk, todo sucesso do mundo para você, te amo muito.

Raul Bruno Ayoub Bruno, Quando os filhos nascem fazemos muitos planos e muitos desejos para as suas vidas e queremos dizer a você que você supera em todos os sentidos tudo o que sonhamos. O amor é a força mais poderosa que existe. Agradecemos todos os dias pelo anjo que Deus colocou em nossas vida, tão capaz de

entender e misturar o melhor de nós 2 em 1 só. E lembre-se sempre: O ontem já passou mas o amanhã está aí para ganhar ou perder! Portanto faça sempre o seu melhor!!!

Carolina Chade Cacá, Mais uma etapa vencida: os primeiros anos na escola, a luta constante por mais justiça e inclusão, a sensação de que a escola ficou pequena para tantas ideias, e enfim a decisão de mudar para a Chapel. Dois anos desafiadores, muito aprendizado e agora você tem os recursos necessários para começar a atuar no mundo a partir de suas incríveis ideias. Foi difícil mas valeu cada minuto, e hoje tenho certeza de que você desenvolveu força e resiliência suficientes para enxergar as oportunidades e abrir novas portas para o início de sua vida adulta. Impossível descrever o quanto te amo, te admiro e o quanto me orgulho de compartilhar a vida com alguém como você! Suzy Carolina Cordeiro Carol, Desde cedo você demonstrou muita curiosidade e energia para organizar as coisas ao seu redor. Lembra dos piqueniques na casa do Rio? Todas suas amiguinhas, você queria organizar os pratinhos na mesa, a ordem das brincadeiras... Muito meiga e peruinha, achamos que seria muito dependente de nós, mas foi se transformando numa mulher, forte, decidida e que não aceita que as coisas fiquem mais ou menos. Você busca sempre a excelência em tudo que faz. Tudo bem que quando vê uma lagartixa e chama o papai parece até que viu um dinossauro, mas é uma mulher forte rsrsrsrs.

Temos muito orgulho de você, de como faz amizade em qualquer ambiente. Lembra do primeiro summer camping que a mamãe foi junto? Que mico!!! Você está pronta para alçar longos voos e enfrentar os desafios da vida. Percebemos isso nessas duas últimas viagens que fizemos. E quando as coisas não saírem do jeito que você planejou, e isso vai acontecer muitas vezes, estaremos sempre ao seu lado.

Beijos, papi e mamy.

Christine Reimer To my dear Christine, Where did time go? It has been some time since you began 1st grade in Ann Arbor, but I think a mother always thinks her children will never grow up. I do enjoy however, seeing you become more independent, discussing interesting topics, having your own opinions, teaching me new things and even learning how to drive. You have always worked hard and have become a wonderful person, with good values and ideals and you are always interested in the world around you as well as far away from you. I’m sure you will be able to contribute to this world Christine and always keep your wonderful sense of humor and smile. A whole new experience is waiting for you and I’m sure you will make the best out of it. Enjoy your life and remember you are very much loved. Your Ma Dear Christine, You did it. It wasn´t easy, but you did it with a lot of discipline in the last 3 years. Your goals were high and you fought hard

for them, including the IB, the American HS diploma, not to mention the German lessons and a lot of very competitive sailing, too. We are very proud of your achievements. Keep up the focus and your sense of humor. Your Pa Enrique Esteve Filho querido, Mais uma etapa na sua vida que você cumpriu. Foram várias vitórias em relação as barreiras que você encontrou neste caminho. Neste novo momento você encontrará novas descobertas, novos amigos, altos e baixos..., não se preocupe, isto faz parte! Você é muito especial filho e estaremos sempre ao seu lado nas suas escolhas! Deus te abençoe filhão, vou sentir saudades do meu companheiro!

Love you bigger! Mom Congrats Enrique!!! High School Grad!!! WOW!!! A major life hurdle surpassed, but many more life hurdles ahead to overcome, one at a time. You are now ready for a great university experience! Keep up the good work and commitment. Remember: Atitude!!! Very proud of you!!!

Love you!!! Dad Gabriel Santos Gabriel é brilhante. Contagia com sua energia, amizade, autenticidade e sensibilidade. Sempre foi um filho meigo e carinhoso. Gosta de conversar, brincar e se relacionar.

Foram 3 anos e meio de Chapel onde fez muitas amizades que levará para toda a vida. Muitos trabalhos, estudos, jogos de futebol, jogos de vôlei, vitórias, derrotas, viagens, reuniões do STUCO e histórias para contar. Um momento especial que ficará para sempre na memória dele e na nossa foi a final de futebol no Big 8 em novembro de 2019. Aquela partida épica mostrou a união, determinação e capacidade de superação desse grupo tão especial. Mais um ciclo se encerra e Gabriel iniciará sua nova jornada para um futuro de sucesso e alegrias. Tradução para nosso filho: puro orgulho.

Felipe e Patrícia Isabel Maria Aboud Dearest Bel, Soooo proud of you for soooo many different reasons!

Congratulations on your graduation and on becoming the kind, confident and forgiving person that you are (only some of the many virtues I see in you).

Love you always, Your Ma Dear Bel Congratulations on your graduation. When you were little I dreamed about the young woman you would become.

You have turned out even better than my best dreams. You are my pride and joy! I’m so proud to be your Da! You’ve matured so much and it’s been amazing to watch. You are capable of greatness! I’ll always be here cheering you on!

Love, Da. Isabella Gagliardi Bella, filha amada, falar sobre você é muito bom porque desperta os melhores sentimentos na gente. Sua maturidade, meiguice, comprometimento, respeito pelos outros,

colaboração sempre, são suas características principais que devem ser mantidas ao longo da sua vida. Temos a certeza que seu caminho apenas está começando, que desafios virão, mas sua capacidade de dar a volta por cima sempre será seu diferencial. Você nos ensina todos os dias, a nunca desistir, a sempre perdoar e ter foco, você nos ensina a falar com mais carinho...estamos muito orgulhosos de quem você está se tornando!!! Tenha no seu coração que sempre estaremos aqui por você! Vamos sentir saudades assim que voar para estudar, pequenos momentos do nosso dia a dia...tomar chá com a mamãe, entrar no mar, servir seu café da manhã enquanto você está acordando ainda, ouvir suas músicas ‘moderninhas’ e barulhentas (com exceção das músicas da Lana del Rey)!

Que Deus continue a te abençoar sempre. Te Amamos demais, Mamãe e Papai Joaquim Ferraz Quim querido, Estou muito orgulhosa em te ver cumprindo uma etapa tão gostosa da sua vida! Ansiosa pelas muitas outras que virão...

Desejo do fundo do meu coração que você seja muito feliz e realizado na sua caminhada, fazendo o que ama e acredita!

Sou sua fã número 1!! Te amo muito, mamãe.

Meu querido Quim, Parece que foi ontem que eu deixava aquele menininho na escola...Tanto tempo se passou e quantas dificuldades você deve ter encontrado por esse caminho. Não deve ter sido fácil, mas você conseguiu e cumpriu seu papel.

Estou muito orgulhoso e feliz por te ver encerrando essa etapa da sua vida. Agora vamos nos preparar para as próximas. Te amo, papai.

Julia Anoardo Para Juju, Do medo ao milagre, da dúvida à felicidade, do amor ao amor eterno. Tudo que se refere a você nestes quase 18 anos, sempre foi intenso, apaixonante e único. Sua partida traz um misto de emoções: da sensação de perda e da saudade, ao imenso orgulho e realização.

Juju filha amada, obrigado por preencher nossas vidas de Alegria, Amor, Aprendizado, Cachorros, Livros e Bichos de Pelúcia. Você é a expressão ideal do que há de melhor no Papai, na Mamãe, na Chanel e na Roma. O resultado é confuso e maravilhoso. Se vai dar certo? Só tem como dar certo!! Tua humildade e tua resiliência tornam você uma pessoa determinada, teu caráter e teus valores te tornam uma pessoa especial. Te Amamos Muito e sempre estaremos com você e mesmo quando não estivermos próximos fisicamente, lembre-se de olhar para dentro de si mesma para encontrar um pouco de cada um de nós e de nosso imenso amor por você. Já estamos com saudades do teu cheiro, do teu humor, de nossa filha...Mar, Juba, Chanel & Roma.

Julia Molina Malagoni Julia, Você sempre foi uma menina alegre e talentosa para as

artes. Ótima na dança e na música, onde está construindo uma linda parceria com seu irmão Pedro. Superação tem sido sua maior demonstração de comportamento nesta reta final de sua história escolar. Esse seu jeitinho frágil e doce, na verdade esconde uma guerreira, forte e batalhadora, temos muito orgulho da mulher que está se tornando; responsável e de valores sólidos e essenciais como família, lealdade e humildade. Entrou na Chapel em 2011 no 4th grade. Passou um ano fora nesta reta final da graduação e retorna agora para se formar junto com sua turma 2020, onde construiu felizes memórias e fez amigos para a vida toda. Uma imensa alegria para você e toda a família! Seja feliz Julia, que seus caminhos sejam abençoados e guiados por Deus. Que seus sonhos se realizem e que você sempre tenha pessoas do bem ao seu lado. Temos muito orgulho de você! Nós te amamos!

Seus pais, Irmão e avós.

Laura Serres Una etapa tancant-se i un munt d’ orgull per sentir d’ aquella nena que sempre ha sabut fer-se estimar i estimar als altres.

La nostra Laura, Laureta, Lau, en fi, cadascú de nosaltres ens hem apropiat d’un nom per parlar de tu; de la nena que avui ja és una dona i que té tota l’energía del món per menjar-se’ l. Fins aquí, hem passat moltíssimes coses junts com a família i com a persones que formem part de la teva vida. A partir d’ara, seguirem estant amb tu però potser d’una altra manera.

Aquesta nova etapa que comences, farà que hagis de prendre un munt de decisions sola i potser tindràs dubtes, però estem segurs que finalment ho sabràs resoldre perquè tens totes les eines per enfrontar tot el que estigui per venir. Que tots t’estimem tant, pares, germà, avis, tiets, cosins i amics, no és una casualitat! Tu ens has fet néixer aquest amor amb la teva manera de ser. Continua disfrutant de la vida i envolta’t de tot allò que t’agrada i et fa feliç.Tens la fórmula perfecte perquè tot surti bé! A por ello! Let’s do it! Vai dar certo!

T’ estimem ara i sempre! Papes Xavi i Sònia Hola Tata, Avui és un dia molt important, tant per tu com per tota la família, perquè avui és el dia en el que passes de ser una nena que tant estimo a una dona. Em posa molt trist parlar de quan te’n vagis com ja saps, però ara és el moment on has d’aprofitar de viure la vida amb tota la llibertat que ens ha faltat o que de vegades hem trobat a faltar. Ens ho hem passat molt bé durant tot aquest temps, i el que ens queda, com les nits que els papes no estaven i hem perseguies per la casa, o mirant qualsevol cosa ens ho passavem sempre bé.

Mira Tata, l’únic que et desitjo és moltíssima sort en aquesta nova aventura en la que t’endinsaràs, i espero que t’ho passis molt bé finalment fent el que t’agrada.

T’estimo molt tata, ets la millor germana del món. El Tete.

Lina Mourad Lina nossa filha querida, Uma etapa concluída com muito esforço e mérito!! Mil palavras não são suficientes para descrever o quanto te amamos, admiramos, confiamos e torcemos por você e por sua felicidade. Estamos e estaremos aqui para o que precisar.

O mundo é seu...nunca deixe de sonhar... sonhe alto...sonhe muito, e o mais importante: nunca deixe de acreditar. A sua luz ilumina seu caminho e a sua energia contagia a todos!!!

Finally a graduate, me surpreendeu! All jokes aside, é muito bom ser sua older sis e poder te ver crescendo e se tornando uma mini-mulher. Independente das suas escolhas, saiba que ainda tentarei te ajudar em math and all your teenage drama.

Love, Kerlly.

I can’t believe my little sis isn’t little anymore. You grew into this beautiful and smart woman, even though you underestimate yourself. You have the biggest, warming heart I know and I’m so proud of you! Enjoy every second of your senior year! Bjs, Joyce. Parabéns! Te amamos!

Antony, Charbel Lucas Reis Lucas, Acaba de terminar uma fase da sua vida. Começa agora uma nova etapa no seu caminho, repleta de oportunidades, cheia de novos desafios. Aproveita cada momento. Ousa, seja corajoso e determinado. No que decidir fazer... Faça o seu melhor! Não se deslumbre demasiado com as suas conquistas, nem esmoreça demasiado com as suas derrotas.

Lembra! Tudo é temporário. Ah! É verdade... Tenha um propósito! Seja ele qual for, que dê sentido a sua vida. Não se leve demasiado a sério, mas também nunca esqueça que, muito provavelmente, você colherá o que semear... Por fim, lembra do movimento da borboleta como metáfora para as múltiplas visões... As coisas são as coisas... É a sua forma de olhar que lhes confere subjetividade...No final, mais importante que saber muitas coisas é viver algumas.... É um privilégio ter você como filho. Amamos muito você! E para todo o sempre você é a luz das nossas vidas!

Mamãe e papai

Minha Mel perfeita, assim está o seu nome no meu celular que você colocou rs…e é assim que eu te vejo, inteligente, gentil, carinhosa, correta, sincera, amiga. Vou sentir falta de todos os seus amigos diariamente em nossos jantares. Em breve, você vai estar indo atrás dos seus sonhos. Lembra da primeira vez que fomos a NY? Chegamos na 5 ave e você disse: - Mãe, vou morar aqui. Nesse momento me deu um frio na barriga, porque seus olhos brilharam diferente. Estou escrevendo tudo isso, para te dizer que você vai conseguir tudo na vida, que você realmente desejar. Nunca se esqueça disso. Não deixe de lado esse seu jeito Mel de ser, que junto com a sua determinação e o objetivo de querer, te levará longe...te amo minha princesa, Mel. Natalie Rotem She is 18 How can it be?

That my little Naty Turned out to be An incredible person and human being She makes her choices but they are never mean She is so outstanding and right How can I thank the universe for this delight?

Of being her mother and part of her soul For ever and ever I want to go where life with take me next to her, let’s go Sofia Neil Kapur You are my favorite boy in the whole world! With whom am I going to talk late into the night about the complexities of society and life in general? Your sweet and thoughtful nature has brought me countless joy. I am awed by your desire to do good in the world and help those who are less fortunate.

I have no doubt that whatever road you choose to take will result in making the world a better place. I have faith that you will go on to do great things. Stay true to who you are and enjoy the journey along the way. I love you so much. Love Always, Mom I have fond memories of our chats over the years while walking or going to sleep. As a self-starter with a brilliant mind, who can learn anything on your own, you have a concern for others and go out of your way to make sure everybody is treated with respect and feels included. You are devoted to everyone in the family, but learned at an early age to be independent. My only message to you is that you need to stop procrastinating and take more time to get physical activity. We will always love you and be there for you. Papa Patrick El Jamal Tico, saiba que o seu futuro já se encontra no presente.

Nesta nova etapa, colocará tudo aquilo que vem observando, aprendendo e descobrindo sobre a vida, na prática.

Parabéns por suas conquistas (certamente outras mais virão). Desejamos que a motivação necessária esteja sempre presente em sua vida, para mantê-lo na rota certa pela conquista do seu espaço. E nunca, nunca desista daquilo que

acredita. Estaremos sempre presentes e ao seu lado.

Com amor e orgulho, Mamãe e Papai.

Tico, finalmente chegou a sua vez de seguir em frente nessa jornada da vida, parabéns pela conquista desta primeira de muitas etapas. O caminho para o sucesso terá muitos obstáculos de agora em diante, porém conte comigo como seu irmão mais velho para guiar-lhe sempre que precisar. Te espero em LDN. Abraço Zinho Patrick I will miss you a lot when you go to the university since I won’t have a brother here anymore. Leo Patrick Van Der Klugt Honoured by being a sibling of Patrick’s, I have taken the liberty of observing him from afar within these last few years. Therefore, I only know what happened generally in this most ripening of times. It has been a long journey. The exhilaration of winning championships, developing amazing friendships, enjoying all wakes of life. Sweat and blood in the battlefield known as basketball courts and many times classrooms. Powering through tiredness in pursuit of finishing IA’s, extended essays, in fact any essay or homework. We’ve shared a routine of sleepless car rides to school in the morning, grumpy under our breath. I also know there have been countless homeworks but even more unbounded fruits, blessings, and growth. Awesome vacations we’ll never forget as a family. Taking in the sweet and the sour that comes along, though a mere glimpse of what life has to offer in the future. What amazing mysteries and adventures await?

This time flying solo, Patrick shall depart afoot into a greater unknown, finally shed his skin from high school, and reap the treasures which lie in his path of individualization. In our immediate and distant families, we are all eager to see him flourishing even more than he has already and give him all the support we can along his journey. We love you Patrick! May you have success all over! The aunties and uncles in Holland, Portugal and Foz are always cheering for you as well!

Pedro Magnarelli Pedro, Llegó el día tan ansiado. Pasaron muchos años pero todavía nos acordamos los primeros días de clase en el Pueri, parece que fue ayer. Estás terminando esta etapa y empezás otra, con desafíos enormes. Te adaptaste a cambios continuos; dos países, varios colegios, casas y lo más importante, sembraste amistades por donde pasaste. Ya demostraste que no hay desafío que no puedas superar, cuando te propones algo, no hay nada ni nadie que pueda sacarte de tu rumbo.

Estamos muy orgullosos de vos, de tus valores, de tu empatía, de tu alegría constante, de como sos como hijo, como hermano y como amigo y de muchísimas cosas más, necesitaríamos varios libros para poder escribir todo lo que nos gustaría elogiar tu forma de ser. Por favor, no cambies, las personas de este mundo merecen que sigas siendo como sos; seguí contagiando tu alegría a todos!! Esto es tan sólo el final de una etapa… lo mejor está por comenzar!!! Te queremos muchísimo!!! Mamá y Papá

Pietra Kouri It’s finally your turn to graduate! The best student to ever attend Chapel School! Sometimes I know that I can be harsh and strict on you, but it’s for the best and for what awaits you outside school, the real world. Pode contar comigo pra tudo sempre! I’m very proud of you on your achievement, love you.

William Pietra, minha filha amada. Desejo-lhe todo o sucesso em sua vida, espero que você seja feliz e tenha orgulho de todos os seus passos, e que mantenha sempre essa garota alegre e educada que conhece seus limites. Essa garota que se importa com todos. Quero que você saiba que sempre estarei ao seu lado. Mamãe te ama muito.

Pietra, te desejo toda sorte do mundo nessa nova etapa que está por vir. Continue sendo essa pessoa maravilhosa e que é tão admirada por todos à sua volta. Você sabe que pode contar comigo para qualquer coisa, estarei sempre do seu lado. Te amo muito! DéKouri Rafael Lopes Rafinha, mais uma conquista. Pela frente um novo caminho de muitas novidades e desafios. Com sua determinação e alegria continuará brilhando. Siga confiante, aproveite cada momento e continue conquistando a todos com seu bom humor. Muito sucesso, mas acima de tudo seja muito feliz!

Te amo, mamis almighty Meu parceiro, para os pais os filhos sempre serão seus. Ainda que procurem educá-los para o mundo, vê-los crescer e partir é um desafio. Bob Dylan já tinha escrito: “Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command.” O mundo é logo ali. E é seu. #orgulhodeserpaidoRafa Meu amor, para não dizer que não falei das flores, e do mesmo bom conselho que papai me deu na minha formatura: quem sabe faz a hora não espera acontecer. Sempre com você.

Always proud. Sua irmã mais velha Eu vou sentir saudades de todas as risadas, os abraços e todos os momentos incíveis que eu passei com você! Estou muito feliz por sua conquista e desejo tudo de bom nesse mundo. Você merece! Eu te amo demais e vou sentir muitas saudades, não sei o que vai ser de mim sem você! Espero que você continue assim, com esse seu humor que só você tem. Espero que você seja muito feliz nessa sua nova fase da vida (como diriam os adultos). Mari Rhea Kapur Rhea, you are beautiful both inside and out. You spread joy wherever you go. You are my most spirited and playful child.

I believe that your positive outlook on life and your resilience will take you far. I know there is steel under that delicate exterior as I have encountered it many times. Use that fortitude to stretch beyond the boundaries of your comfort zone to better gain independence and confidence in handling difficult situations. I feel certain that you will use that strength

and positivity to realize your dreams. I love you more than words can say. Love Always, Mom At an early age you developed an attachment to me that I treasure whether you were hanging on my head as a baby, attending a party with me as a grown up five-year old or insisting on rereading the book about Lily the mouse. Your playful attitude gives you a real talent for getting along with your peers. Although it is good to be self-confident, you need to be open to listening to advice, while maintaining an independent mind. We will always love you and be there for you. Papa Rodrigo Luz Digo, Te amo muito, desde o primeiro momento. E esse amor só cresce. Quantos momentos lindos e inesquecíveis até aqui.

Um amor imenso e uma alegria de ver você se tornar uma pessoa de valores, com garra, e com sonhos. Uma pessoa boa que acredita em fazer um mundo melhor. Estarei sempre aqui ao seu lado, para o que você precisar. Mamãe Filho, Muito orgulho da pessoa que você se tornou. Foram anos de dedicação e muito esforço. E o resultado veio: Conhecimento, Determinação, Ética, Companheirismo, Raça e acima de tudo uma pessoa do bem. Parabens pelas suas conquistas e que o futuro te traga muitos desafios e felicidade!!! Te amo, seu Pai. Digo, Estou muito orgulhosa e feliz de ver todas as suas conquistas. Eu te amo muito e desejo o melhor para você nessa sua futura fase da vida. Saiba que pode contar comigo quando precisar. Vou morrer de saudades!! Juju Se yeong Jung (Brian) Se yeong, congratulations on your graduation.

I was impressed because your graduation is the result of efforts made between unfamiliar lands, the environment, and strangers. You had to study beyond language barriers and adapt to a culture completely different from where you live.

You have struggled a lot, but your hard times will never be in vain. It will surely come back to you as you strive to make your dreams come true. You have always been a proud and lovely child to our family. I will always support you, and when you are tired I will always be a resting place to come and rest. And I hope you can take care of yourself, so I want you to be happy in the life you plan and build for yourself. Finally, I appreciate you growing up well.

Sofia Bavaresco Sofia querida! Assim eu começo, desde sempre, as minhas mensagens para você, ora em post-its de estrelinha, ora em folhas arrancadas de algum caderninho… E sempre com um desenho de nós duas nos abraçando… Nossas vidas sempre entrelaçadas pelo cuidado e por imenso carinho! Com tanta alegria esperei pelo seu nascimento, imaginando seu rostinho, sonhando com sua voz. Quando você chegou, com seus olhinhos vivos e vistosos, nossa! Enriqueceu minha vida com um amor imensurável, muito além da dimensão de qualquer dos meus sonhos. E a partir desse dia cheio de graça,

fomos juntas, no dia-a-dia da nossa animada convivência, construindo uma história linda… Sofi, com ternura, encanto, vivacidade, você me inspira todo o tempo, sabia? Pois você é assim, essa menina autêntica, desafiadora, sincera e ideóloga que tanto admiro. Supera suas dificuldades com tanto vigor e sabedoria! Você me enche de orgulho! E com a sua generosidade, meu amor, você me presenteia todos os dias com o sentido que acredito ser o mais valioso da vida: a descoberta desse AMOR sublime na intimidade e no prazer da convivência com você! Filha querida, neste momento de desafios e descobertas, desejo a você saúde, bravura e “espírito forte” para vencer os embaraços da vida que vem por aí e também muita paixão para curtir os momentos bons!

Que no seu caminhar pela vida as esperanças se revelem e você possa reconhecer e experimentar a ALEGRIA DO VIVER! Parabéns pela Formatura do High School!!! TE AMOOOO de MONTÃO!!!

Sofi, você se lembra da estrelinha chamada Sofia que vivia nas histórias que o Papis te contava? Hoje essa estrelinha cresceu e está brilhando mais do que nunca!!! Parabéns por ter este brilho tão intenso, tão único e tão seu!!! Sucesso e continue brilhando, que eu estarei te admirando e apoiando sempre!

TE AMO! Sofi! Hello my guy! CONGRATULATIONS IN GRADUATING! Eu vou tentar não repetir o que a mamãe e o papai falaram, mas eu estou super orgulhosa de você. Eu sinceramente acho você o máximo even though it pains my sister self to admit it. I can’t wait to see you continue your journey (and become even more annoying.... ok kidding.... maybe) and become the coolest person I know. But I also hope your journey somehow includes somehow spending at least a month a year with me (or me with you) because I miss you so much everyday.

Inclusive nossos elevator fights chegando em casa. Or the races to see who gets to seat shotgun. Eu te amo muito mesmo! I hope you know that. (Pretend I said all this when you’re just trying to watch Netflix and I’m being all emotional and you want me to leave your room and I just won’t leave).

Yea, good luck because I won’t stop annoying you with my overly emotional stuff ever. Ok, love u!

Sophie Azar O dia em que nossa família começou não era um dia como qualquer outro. Era a primeira segunda-feira após o Carnaval de 1999. Abri a porta da sala de aula da Faculdade pela primeira vez. Atrasado como sempre, de longe vi o rosto mais belo que já tinha visto em toda minha vida. Não lembro da cara do Professor, mas daquele rosto nunca mais me esqueceria. Dois anos se passaram, e a alguns metros daquela mesma sala de aula, em uma escadaria da Faculdade, estávamos sentados, mamãe e eu. Ela estava cansada. Pela primeira vez sentia cólicas. Sem a menor sombra de dúvidas, liguei diretamente no celular do Dr. Carlos. O que eram essas cólicas? Meu coração disparou. Dr. Carlos pedia para eu me acalmar: “a cólica é normal na gravidez” – dizia ele. Mas para mim, a partir daquele momento, tive a exata certeza que em nenhum momento da minha vida, daquele instante em diante, eu teria um momento sequer de tranquilidade.

Daquele dia em diante, eu compreendi o que significava ser pai, e pai passei a ser, pelo resto da minha vida. Olho para

trás. Parece que foi ontem. Mas dezoito anos se passaram.

Como foi rápido. Hoje, escrevo estas palavras pensando no ciclo da vida: está chegando a sua vez, o dia em que você entrará em uma sala de aula de uma Faculdade, como no dia em que conheci sua mãe. Isso não foi sorte. Foi D”us!

Stephan Benutti Stephan nosso querido, amado e desejado filho. Nós lembramos como se fosse hoje do momento em que engravidamos de você. Cada hora, dia, semana e mês esperamos ansiosamente pelo seu nascimento, um bebê prematuro que já nasceu entendendo que deveria ser independente, logo nos primeiros 15 dias com suas pequenas mãozinhas começou a levantar a mamadeira a partir daí soubemos que você seria capaz de dirigir a sua vida. Hoje você já deu início a área profissional que quer seguir, demonstrando capacidade e empreendedorismo comercial.

Parabéns! Que você continue seguindo seus sonhos e obtenha cada dia mais sucesso! Te amamos muito! Mãe e Pai Tete, o sucesso é daqueles que batalham, e com toda certeza você é um dos merecedores desse sucesso. Que a alegria da formatura fique para sempre em você por acreditar que este dia chegaria, você se esforçou e buscou a cada dia o seu sonho. Merecidamente venceu, e hoje os aplausos são todos para você! Espero que esta vitória seja o início de muitas outras conquistas. Te amo muito sua irmã de coração. Tom Tete, eu te amo muito, você sempre me ajudou com tudo, parabéns pela formatura. Quando você for para a faculdade você vai falar comigo todos os dias e a gente não vai dá uma de Delfina e Domenico e brigar todas as vezes que a gente se ver, eu não quero que a nossa vida mude e quero que você sempre seja igual você é hoje. Te amo muito, muito, muito. Patrick Eu acompanhei a sua jornada e sei que em muitos momentos não foi fácil, mas você encarou o sacrifício com coragem e ânimo, pois sabia que a recompensa seria maior. Estou muito orgulhoso de você, e estou muito feliz pela sua realização! O seu futuro e o seu sucesso estão só começando. Parabéns pela formatura! Você merece toda a felicidade e sucesso. Toninho Tatiana Capezzuto Nossa querida Tati! Como conseguir resumir todas as nossas emoções em tão poucas palavras? Parabéns por esta etapa que se conclui: o High School. Como o tempo voa!

Mas esse é somente o primeiro de muitos capítulos do seu livro da vida. Coragem e dedicação são só duas das suas várias qualidades, que fazem de você uma pessoa simplesmente espetacular! Com a sua curiosidade pelo mundo, você vai longe. Você nunca almeja o óbvio, você vai além e nunca para de nos surpreender. Esperamos que você aproveite muito bem a faculdade! Estaremos sempre ao seu lado, te apoiando em todas as suas decisões e etapas futuras. Se aparecerem dificuldades, lembre-se que a dificuldade é a maneira da natureza de te tornar mais forte. E você sabe muito bem como lidar com desafios. Te desejamos toda a sorte para viver esses novos momentos.

Quanto orgulho sentimos de você! Nós te amamos demais!

Um beijo grande da sua família!

Papai, mamãe e Gio William Cho 사랑하는 윌리엄에게 채플 첫날, 엄마와 떨어지며 울던 날이 엊그제 같은데 … 어느덧 14년이란 시간이 이렇게 훌쩍 지났구나. 지금까지 윌리엄은 아빠, 엄마의 맏아들로, 헨리의 형으로, 그리고 그레이스의 큰오빠로 항상 우리 가족의 자랑이고 든든한 존재였단다. 하이스쿨 진학 후에는 너의 미래에 대하여 많이 고민하고 걱정하고 불안해 했지만, 힘든 상황에서 열심히 노력하고, 많은 다른 유혹 속에서도 자신을 절제하고 꾸준히 노력했기에 지금은 이 모든 걸 우리 아들이 잘 이겨내고 이렇게 하이스쿨 졸업을 하게 되다니. 정말 자랑스럽고 우리 아들 그 동안 수고많았다. 그리고 진심으로 윌리엄의 졸업을 축하한다!!! 이제 우리는 부모이기에 앞서 윌리엄의 인생 조언자로서 앞으로 다가올 미래에 대하여 이야기해 주고 싶구나! 너는 이제 하이 스쿨을 마치고 학업의 다음 단계인 대학진학을 앞두고 있기에 지금까지는 가족 안에서 따뜻하게 행복하게 지냈지만 이제는 너의 인생을 준비하는 첫번째 단계인 대학에 들어가서 인생의 홀로서기를 시작하는 시간이 다가온 것이기도 하단다. 그래서 인생선배로서도 우리 큰아들이 처음 맞이 하는 대학교 캠퍼스 생활을 마음껏 누리면서 학업에도 열중하고, 여러 친구들과 어우러져 다양한 경험도 해보고, 또한 여러 사랑도 많이 하며, 부디 대학시절 많은 경험을 해 보길 바란다. 그리고 학생에서 청년이 된 윌리엄은 모든 생각과 행동에 대하여 너스스로 책임지려는 태도를 잊지 말라고 당부하고 싶다. 이제 모든걸 혼자 결정해 나가는 중요한 시기를 맞아 현재 너가 행동하는 모든 순간의 결정이 결국 앞으로는 윌리엄 인생의 큰 밑거름이 된다는 것도 잊지 않았으면 좋겠다. 이 모든게 처음엔 어렵고 힘들겠지만 윌리엄의 인성을 믿고 깊이 사랑하기에 아빠, 엄마는 큰 걱정은 하지 않는단다. 그리고 다가올 윌리엄의 미래도 떠오르는 해처럼 밝을 거라고 믿는다. 왜냐하면 윌리엄은 늘 겸손하면서도 자신감 넘치며 올바른 품행을 지닌 멋진 사람이라는 알기 때문이란다. 윌리엄 정말 정말 사랑한다. 그리고 다시한번 졸업을 축하한다!!! 사랑하는 아빠, 엄마가

Yeongseo Chae (Alex) 20년전 아주 작은 점 하나의 크기로 나타나준 영서는 그 때부터 지금까지, 앞으로도 항상.... 엄마, 아빠의 세상 전부란다. 사랑하는 영서야.... 졸업 진심으로 축하해. 늘 따뜻한 마음으로 새로움에 도전하는 용기있는 영서가 자랑스럽구나. 네 뒤에 항상 엄마, 아빠, 영인이가 응원하고 있으니, 당당하게 네 길을 걸어가길.... 사랑하는 엄마가...

Aula de Atualidades Advisor: Mr. Erico Padilha

Com encontros semanais, sempre às quartas-feiras na sala 27, o Clube Aula de Atualidades é mais do que uma ferramenta para compreender o que ocorre no Brasil e no mundo. Nele são debatidos e analisados os principais episódios e fatos de protagonismo midiático.

Mais do que proporcionar o acesso à informação, Aula de Atualidades é um clube de abordagem por perspectivas (política, econômica, social, ambiental e etc.) cujo propósito é criar condições para que os alunos possam ampliar e aprofundar o conhecimento sobre temas relevantes.

This club forges friendships, creativity, imagination, and provides a homebase for those seeking something a bit off the beaten path of High School.

ECEC Art Ms. Camila Boueri

We produced a great deal of artwork throughout the year. Students were able to show their knowledge, engagement, creativity, ideas, and imagination through activities based on the elements of art. This year students learned a lot about artists around the world and developed a unique approach to education, exploring all the opportunities available that the art department provided. One of the activities in art class was creating different shades of blue, yellow, and green inspired by Van Gogh’s and Monet’s masterpieces. They all had the experience of creating new shades by themselves, discovering how bright or dark a color can be.

These art classes also had free art centers where students could build their selfconfidence through free art activities, guiding them to describe their personality, overcoming fears and barriers.

The quality and variety of materials helped little Chapel students to improve their art vocabulary, learn more about different cultures and visions, and consequently to open new possibilities for interdisciplinary practices. I am very proud of them, and what I saw over the year was my little artists trying their best with happiness, imagination, and love.

We never stop painting, gluing, cutting, modeling, drawing and much more! I always tell them: art is around us all the time, try your best, work hard, use your imagination and have fun!

High School Art and Art Lab Ms. Sylvia Almeida

The Art Lab is a moment when any and all High School students can produce artwork that will support other subjects or that will fulfill the students’ desire. The choice of materials will come from the student but if the student is not sure, they will receive suggestions from the advisor. It is also a moment that other Chapel clubs and organizations can use to produce art which supports, for example the Drama Club panels, and StuCo boards!

Art Lab meets every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday after school from 3:15 to 4:25 and every student from Chapel High School is welcome to come! Also, Art Lab hours count for CAS for either Creativity when the IB student produces Art or Service when the IB student helps other students as an Art Monitor.

Our school year was super productive in all our grade levels!

The 7th Graders came with so many different talents, mesmerising everyone with amazing results through animation, ceramic sculptures of houses inspired by flowers, folders painted using shading techniques in acrylic, self portraits of a split face, and printmaking with Concrete Art style!

Our 8th Grade surprised us with their talents producing Keith Haring inspired paintings that looked incredible in our hallways! And they continued to show their talents with observational drawings with glass and water, with Op Art works that toyed with our vision and with some explosive Pop Artworks! It was also great to see our students’ creativity popping up through the computer screen when we had our time out in Home School.

We had our new class of 9th Grade Integrated Art and it was great! We did observation drawings of still life, deconstructing famous paintings by reproducing students’ view by painting the images in different positions, and we closed the semester by doing reverse shading where students made drawings using white pencil on black paper!

Our 10th Grade elective had an incredible journey as well! They did animation drawing on A1 paper for the book fair, incredible portrait painting of a beloved person from their family, as well as printmaking art with a conceptual paragraph! The same group continued producing Art for the second semester where they did an incredible Arcimboldo inspired silhouette personality portrait, and continued showing their talents through online Art classes!

Our IB Art students continued to work hard on developing incredible Art portfolios supported by very individual Investigation Books and very unique Comparative Studies where students researched and compared artwork of their choice! The conclusion of IB Art was an amazing exhibition that happened in the covered area of our beloved Chapel School! What an amazing year!

High School field trips, which are a part of Chapel’s Education for Sustainable Development Program, took place from March 9 to 13. It was a period for teachers and students to identify and reflect about sustainable problems and solutions. They were immersed in the visited locations by experimenting new situations to sharpen their senses - vision, touch, smell, taste, and hearing.

Book Fair This edition of the Book Fair took place from September 25th-28th and had Turma da Mônica as its theme.

More than 2,500 books were sold during the fair. In addition to that, all students were invited to participate in workshops catered to their specific age groups. Students from Pre I to Second Grade participated in storytelling sessions with author and theater teacher Gu Braga, who stimulated students’ creativity and imagination through kinesthetic activities like singing, dancing, acting, and storytelling. First through Fourth Grade classes created their own comic books under the guidance of Ana Kirsten, creative director for Mauricio de Sousa Produções. Students in grades Five through Eight participated in workshops with designer Anderson Nunes and art editor Mauro Souza, both from Monica’s Gang. Students in grades 9-12 had workshops with illustrator and cartoonist Flavio Luiz, who discussed creative and technical aspects of comic book production.

The Turma da Mônica or Mônica’s Gang characters Monica, Smudge, Jimmy Five, and Maggy came to Chapel School on Saturday, September 28th, to greet families and pose for photos.

We also held an art workshop, which was a huge success. The raffle for two enormous Monica’s Gang comics also excited the children in attendance, who cheered excitedly when the prize was drawn. Three lucky students went home winners: Isabela Yaksic (third grade) brought home one copy of the oversized comic book and sisters Helena (first grade) and Isabel Luz (Pre II) won the second. Book Fair was brought to a close with a performance of the musical Hansel & Gretel, put on by Companhia Paulista de Teatro Bilíngue.

Independência do Brasil e Proclamação da República Em alinhamento aos valores da Chapel, reforçamos nos alunos a importância da cidadania, respeito e civismo, que reafirmamos celebrando as principais datas de nosso calendário cívico, como a Independência do Brasil e a Proclamação da República do Brasil.

A Independência do Brasil foi um tema trabalhado com os alunos, durante as aulas de BSS. Como resultado, os alunos do 5º ano prepararam duas paródias, utilizando o conteúdo aprendido de uma maneira criativa e divertida, para retratar esse momento significativo, que compartilharam com a comunidade Chapel School na cerimônia de celebração da data cívica. Recebemos também a benção do Padre Miguel Pipolo, a participação especial do aluno Pedro de Marchi, e a tradicional execução do Hino Nacional Brasileiro e da Independência do Brasil.

A Proclamação da República, foi celebrada na nossa escola no dia 14 de novembro, integrando toda a comunidade nessa data tão importante. A comemoração foi fundamental para reafirmar nosso espírito de respeito e civismo pela ocasião. Na abertura, feita pela Diretora do Programa Brasileiro - Ms. Daniela Gattai, apresentou os alunos: Cecile Perebaskine e Vittório Aguilar que foram os cerimonialistas, na sequência procedeu-se a execução do Hino Nacional Brasileiro e hasteamento da Bandeira do Brasil, em seguida Bruna Simões e Cezario Caram Filho fizeram discursos relacionados à data e seus desdobramentos nos dias atuais, para concluir a celebração tivemos a execução do Hino da Proclamação da República Brasileira.

On February 21st, ECEC and Elementary students put on a Carnaval parade. This great Brazilian festival was an opportunity to work on multidisciplinary projects to foster the development of several skills. The celebration merged projects from several areas: Music, Visual Arts, Physical Education and Portuguese.

ECEC students studied the musical styles of Frevo, Maracatu, Samba as well as Marchinhas and they made props and musical instruments which they used in the parade around Chapel. The 1st and 2nd Grade classes worked on a major project in which they constructed the props and percussion instruments in Makers class for the celebration. These props and instruments were based on what they learned in a deep study of the historical and linguistic elements of Carnaval as well as the sound properties of the instruments and the typical music.
