The Class of 2025 

"On this joyful morning, we sit among the bravest company we could ever ask for - parents, friends, and faculty who love and honor our graduates and have come to pay tribute to them, to celebrate them, to shed a tear at the passing of time, to remember them in their youth, when this day seemed too distant to even imagine.  But it has arrived, and we arrive with it; it has called us together to bear witness to all that has happened here in the years that you - members of the senior class - strode this beautiful campus from your childhood to adulthood."
Head of School Paul J. Stellato

The Class of 2025 will always have a special place in Friends Academy history. We know you will continue to spread your light to the world.

Always be thankful! Thankful for the positive things in your life. Also, as I heard frequently when I was a student, "Give Service". Give service to others as your abilities dictate. Never dwell on the negative. Be aware how fortunate you are. Friends treated boys and girls the same. Everyone was expected to do their best whether in the classroom or on the playing field. Take these things into your life and apply them. I wish you the best in the future.

Congratulations and best of luck as you begin your next chapter! As you move forward, encourage yourself to step outside of your comfort zone -- both emotionally and physically. If it's ultimately not a fit, you can always readjust, but it's not as easy to get a second chance at past opportunities.

Danielle Farrell-O'Kane, Class of 2006
