## Resource

Spaulding High’s Class of 2026 just graduated, 130 students stepping boldly into the world—armed with early college credits, technical skills, and a hunger to lead. Principal Maurice urged them to seize their future, reminding them that their greatest wins are still ahead. Co-valedictorian Mia Dolan echoed that feeling of being unready yet unstoppable, urging classmates to chase joy, take risks, and own their path. Cadyn Jarvis compared high school to snowboarding—falls were lessons, not failures—and celebrated the resilience built through struggle. Both graduates honored the mentors and loved ones who held them up, as this class now stands at the summit, ready to carve their own trails.
