"This is the first major step for the journey we have yet to embark on. But before we turn our tassels to the left and accept these diplomas, I want you all to remember this: Shake. The. Room. And I mean EVERY room." Fatoumata Ba "Through the uncertainties of high school, I turned to my teachers, who watched me embrace my identity and become less fearful." Emily Friedman "I am grateful for my teachers who have encouraged me to take risks and find the importance of my voice." Jacquie Denamiel "Being welcomed here has helped me choose a university that is a college version of Trevor. At Wake Forest, I aspire to find what I've had at Trevor: teachers who will demand the best version of myself, friends who will champion my endeavors, and a community that genuinely cares about one another." Sam Gringauz "Trevor has cultivated our community much like a garden. In the beginning, we were seeds, each with our own dormant characteristics that would come to light...we had been placed in an environment together; when it rained, it rained for all of us." George Fleisher "When the world shuts down, you'll find your true friends when maintaining a friendship suddenly becomes intentional rather than incidental. You'll learn to work with your teachers rather than for them and take immense pride in the work you do." Carolyn Orenstein "The future remains unknown; yet knowledge of the person I have become at Trevor has given me comfort and confidence for the next chapter of my life." Alex Friedman "No matter where life takes us, we will always be Trevor dragons and a part of this extraordinary community that taught us to embrace diversity, strive for excellence, and to be lifelong learners."
