John Jay PrinciPal’s address
Finding your way on the path of life By JOHN GOETZ
G
ood evening ladies and gentlemen, members of the board of education, Superintendent Kreutzer, administrators, faculty members, families, friends and most importantly members of the class of 2013 at John Jay High School. It has been my pleasure and privilege to serve as the interim principal of your school this year. You have set a tone of seriousness of purpose, tempered with enthusiasm and a fun-loving spirit. Your actions have given the underclassmen a standard of leadership and responsibility to follow. The other student speakers tonight have recalled some of the high lights of the past

four years. I will simply ask you to look fondly back on your personal remembrances of high school and at the same time, begin to look forward to the challenges and changes that you will experience. If we have learned anything, it is that the one constant in life is change. You are about to experience a serious dose of that after tonight. Gone will be the rigors, challenges and stresses of high school life. But also gone will be the security, comfort and caring of so many at John Jay High School. Tonight you officially become alumni of this fine school. The next step is clearly in your hands. For many of you the coming four years will be another blur of academics and activities. Enjoy the ride but stay focused and receptive to new ideas. As the author Harold Stone once
advised, ‘Keep an open mind, but not so open that your brains fall out.” The courses that you take and the areas of interest that you pursue will hopefully point to career paths, some of which may not be clear to you now. That’s ok. Don’t be afraid to take the path less traveled. As the poet, Robert Frost told us, taking that path “can make all the difference.” Also, remember that you need to take responsibility for your actions and the decisions that you make. Those decisions will be yours and only yours, choose wisely. The time has now come to move on. And so, on behalf of the entire faculty and staff at John Jay High School, I wish you all health, happiness and much success in the future. Congratulations to the class of 2013.
