I love the yearbook idea, I really want to participate. I love looking back at my 6 grade yearbook.I have pictures to submit because the yearbook gives you and your friend an idea of who you really are especially because of the virus. I look forward to graduation, and the email stalk to find out if I got in the High school I signed up for. I know for a fact I wanted to do everything that was planned for the 8th graders at then of the school year, from trip, to dance, everything.But because of the virus all that went away.

Life is short and you have to cherish your precious memories. I came to St. Nick’s in seventh grade and now the class is graduating in a few months. Even though I was here for a short amount of time, I still made many fond memories that will stay with me. However, because of that I do not have many photos to contribute to the yearbook. On the other hand, I am looking forward to our graduation and seeing everyone for one last time. Eighth grade was really a memorable and unique year under certain circumstances, but I will miss trying to get through a whole school day on zoom.

8th grade was a fun year for everyone. Sure quaratine had ruin and changed a lot of the things we were used to but we persevered and moved on. I will try to contribute to this year's yearbook and I migh have some pictures I can submit. Some things I miss in 8th grade because of covid was hanging out with my friends and talking with them. Even though hints are bad at the end of 8th grade, I am hoping to have a fun time with everyone so we can a be on good terms.

I’m extremely excited to finally get the change to experience having a yearbook. I am very hyped to be able to look forward to a yearbook. I personally don’t have a lot of pictures that I want to submit for the yearbook . One thing I know I’ll miss is going to be our graduation. Even though we wouldn’t “fully live” our eighth grade lives it’s still pretty fun. I really hope that we’re able to have our graduation in person. Somethings I wish we’re able to do is have our dance, trip and other fun events.

This year was a good year despite all the setbacks we've had. We can still all participate in our yearbook, which is good. I'd really like to participate in the yearbook. While I don't have many pictures to contribute, I'd like to contribute in some other way. We also can still have a graduation this year as well. Something I'll miss about Eighth Grade is our class. I'll miss them because almost all of us have been in the same class since Kindergarten or even Pre-school. Something I look forward to at the end of this school year, however, is the graduation ceremony. I really hope that by June we can have an outdoor graduation.

Eighth grade is one special year. I have already gathered many incredible memories, including last year. Even though I have created many memories, I don't really think I have enough pictures to contribute to the yearbook, considering that of the few pictures that I had I deleted some. Even though I cant contribute to the year book, there are other things I look forward to. I am looking forward to graduation and maybe seeing my friends again. Although, I am excited to do this I am quite sad we will have no dance or trip.

I’m exited for the year book because I want to reflect that we as a class did over the years. I have sort of a lot of pictures, it would be a great yearbook for us even though it’s COVID season and some of us stayed home, but at least we where working together as a class and staying strong.

I love to look back at old photos, especially class photos, where life wasn’t what we’re in now. I do look forward to contributing to the yearbook but my only problem is that I dont like to take pictures. Many pictures were from 5+ years ago. Some things I look forward to at the end of the year is seeing everyone for the last time. I wonder how some of us will feel knowing that we have a chance of never seeing each other again. I am going to miss the fact that we don’t have a proper ceremony for our departure. A lot of us have been together for around 10 years so I think reality is going to get us.

This is the year we graduate and leave SNT. With that we are making a year book. Personally I am very exited to see the year book and what it includes. Though I don't have many pictures I still want to contribute to the book. One thing I miss a lot is when me and some of my friends would go over to Yummy Taco and eat then we would go over to my house. One things I am looking forward to do is our graduation and seeing everyone for a finale time before we go into high school. Overall this was the most unique school year ever.

Most of my current best friends I have I've been friends with for a really long time.We have taken many pictures and videos of each other throughout the years. I am looking forward to sharing these happy memories! However, I don't have many pictures to submit. Most of them are either low quality or bad. But, I still have about 3 or 5 pictures I am able to hand in. Something that I will definitely miss is this class, I have been with this class since the 4th grade. There are many amazing memories I have. There are many things we cannot do due to Covid. I will miss the Talent Show, Field Day, Color Wars, and just everything over all.

Since we are graduating from SNT I am looking forward to yearbooks. The yearbook will show us being there and give us the memories we spent here. I only have a few pictures to submit since I don't have a lot of me. I mainly am looking forwards to the yearbook. Somethings That we will miss are trips, and the dance.

I am really excited for the year book. I do have many pictures to contribute that I have over the years. I am really excited for graduation, and going to a new school. I am sad we will be missing all our trips, and other school events. Even though we might not have a normal graduation I hope its still fun.

This year was different, but I'm happy that we, as a class, were able to work things out and not let everything going on affect us too much. I have some pictures to contribute to the yearbook, but there aren't a lot. I don't take a lot of pictures. I am looking forward to graduating and possibly meeting some friends. I know I will miss the dinner dance and the usual graduation ceremony. This year was definitely different, but I'm excited for what comes next.

I've spent my whole life here at SNT and I'm not too sure what the next few years of my life will be like. I'm definitely going to contribute some photos to remember my time here. I'm disappointed that some of our classmates still haven't come in person so we could at least spend our last year together but I understand why. I am also saddened by the fact that we won't have a normal graduation this year, but I'm sure it will still be fun!

Every since I was in Pre-K, I have been attending SNT. And I'm really excited about the upcoming yearbook. Because I've been attending the school for so long, I will try to contribute with multiple photos. I want to remember being here and all the fond memories I had since the beginning. Compared to all our previous school year, this one definitely stands out. I always looked forward to seeing my friends at school, but because of Covid we are restricted. But I really hope we have as much as a normal year we can possibly have.

I have spent most of my life here and I have made many good memories. I will miss all of my friends when I make it to high school. Unfortunately I do not now if i will submit pictures for the yearbook. However I will still remember the time I spent here.

This year of my life will be one that I remember. Even though it is different from other years, I had fun this year with school. Even though I been here at SNT for a long time, I won't be contributing a lot of photos for the year book. However I have made many memories, but just forgot to take pictures of them happening, which I regret. On the hand, I am looking forward to the dinner dance and graduation towards the end of the year. I do miss the fact that we can't see each other in person.

Since covid has been around, many changes have been happening to keep us safe. This includes gatherings with large amounts of people. Although we have this in place, I am looking forward on of the usual graduation traditions. This would be putting a yearbook together. I don't have many pictures of my classmates together, but I think I have enough. I never really liked taking pictures, so I never took them. I am looking forward to actually having an in person graduation. Most people graduating, graduate online due to the situation we're in. I think I'll miss the field trip to a big place, like a water park. Another thing that I miss is the roller-skating trip. This was one of the events that I always looked forward to.

This year was different due to COVID-19, however this year has been probably one of the best years I've had this school and I'm excited for the yearbooks. I don't have many pictures of myself or with my classmates because in the past I thought pictures were a waste of time. I do look forward to see how graduation goes. One thing that I'll miss is Field day. I always liked Field day because we got to go to a field of grass hang out with our friends and play baseball, and basketball overall it was fun and I'll certainly miss that this year.

I really enjoy looking back at old pictures and seeing how I have grown. I became a student here at SNT last year and soon we will be graduating. Although I have been here a short amount of time, I honestly had lots of fun and love all the memories. I took pictures and videos all the time when I was with the class and they make me incredibly happy. Some of these pictures are low quality but I still have a few I can submit. I am definitely looking forward to our graduation because I feel ready to move onto something new and bigger. I know that usually the Eight Grade class gets a trip and a dance to celebrate, but unfortunately we can't have those things because of COVID. I just hope to finish this year with the majority of us in person at school so we can all end on good terms!

Well Eight Grade was supposed to be the most fun ever. Don't get me wrong it has been pretty fun, but then again because of the pandemic we were not allowed to do some events. One thing I really missed is the roller skating trip. I really enjoyed it and was really bummed out that we couldn't do it this year. I also was excited to do the yearbook in person and see all my friends. However even though I can't there are ways I can still have fun while being safely. I hope eight grade continues going smoothly.

It’s crazy how close we we are to graduation. With graduation, we have to make a yearbook. I want this year book to be as good as it can because it might the only way some of us remember each other. I’m excited to hand in the many photos I have even though some may be embarrassing. I’ve been here since preschool so my parents have racked up a lot. I don’t really know what to look forward to at the end of eighth grade. I would just like to see things get safer before graduation. We’re most likely going to missing a lot like the eighth grade dance, and our eighth grade trip, but hopefully we could have something different that’s still fun. Even if we are in COVID, we can make the most of it.

A yearbook is something that I have never contributed to in my whole life, and for that reason only, I am looking forward to contributing this year. I have some pictures for the yearbook, but they aren't a lot. I am only interested in one thing towards the end of Eighth Grade, and that's Movie Night. I enjoyed movie night when we were in the Seventh Grade, and I am interested in doing it again before we fully leave St. Nicholas.

I am looking forward to contributing to the yearbook this year. I have a lot of fun and cool pictures that I'd like to submit. Before COVID, I had great vacations with my family, especially in Charlotte and the carribean. I want to share these memories with my friends in class.Towards the end of 8th grade, I'm looking forward to enjoying the summer before going to high school. Some of the things I will miss doing in 8th grade due to covid restrictions is going on trips with the class.

Many events that no one ever expects are thrown at them every single day, and we just have to deal with them. An example of this is my school life. I had so much fun over the years, but recently, it hasn't been like that because of COVID-19. Now, my time at Saint Nicholas of Tolentine is coming to a close, but there's still some things that I am hopeful for. I'm excited to be able to contribute to our yearbook in a little while, for example. There's just one problem, however. Although I am a sentimental person that loves looking back, I barely have any photos of our schoolmates and me to turn in. I'm not sure exactly why I don't have much, but all I can think of is that I never expected time to rush by so fast, and I guess I didn't bother to take some photos because I thought it would all last. Regardless, I still want to contribute in any way that I can. Besides the yearbook, I'm honestly not sure what to look forward to because COVID-19 has taken away so much. Because of that, I'll miss a lot of the things that the previous Eighth Graders have done in the past, especially the dinner dance and senior trip. I really wanted to do those activities, but now we can't, and I'm sad! However, if there's still someway that we all can celebrate together, then I'll look forward to that. I might even want to find a way to do that, but who knows what will happen now?

There are lots of things we can and can't do thanks to covid. But we can still do fun things like making the year book, interacting with each other, watching movies, and more. For the year book, I have a decent amount of pictures I can submit from my childhood and last year. Some things that I will miss doing is going on fun field trips like field day and going to the roller skating rink. Lastly, I'm looking forward for graduation, and hopefully, it can be in person.

Old photos can mean a lot, since we take them to remember things. I don't have too many, but I'll be sure to add a few. There are certain things we won't be able to do in Eighth Grade due to Covid Restrictions. For example, we're most likely not gonna have any kind of trip, or graduate like past eighth grader. But It would mean a lot to graduate with everyone I've been with for the past two years.
