Hands of ' Life of 2015•

By: hdina Begum

Higent Guestio

Mrs.

helped Gavin make his mark by helping him learn Spanish.

Gavin Davis
Birky Rios
Gracias!!!

This year, our eighth graders are sadly leaving their mark; the imprint they made on us will always be remembered by Park. The mark they've made on · the 6th and 7th graders will guide them into the right path in the future. They will be missed by all, but will move onto a much greater challenge.

Aaron Sams says that he makes his mark on Park by helping his brother do well and stopping him from doing bad things. Aaron says that Mr.Holland has made a mark on him, because when he wasn't doing well, he helped him do better.

Yuko Gusko makes his mark on Park by trying his best and doing well in school. The person who has made a mark on Yuko is Mr. O'Meara because he is cool and fun.
