ANNECOURCHESNE As I tried to think of some giant revelation about my growth at Gould. 1 realized that words can only inadequately describe my feelings. There exists no quotation that can do justice to how much I love Gould Academy. This has been my home for four years, and I somehow feel that my soul will always belong here. I leave with tears, and the solitary hope that I can share with others what Gould has given to me. Dr. O — I have a dream — Tanii. Te desco la paz. gracious. Ms. Lee, 1 want to be just like you when if I grow up. Don't ever lose your youthful idealism. LESLIE ANN SENIOR — SOUP We shed old roles and mask in the preparation of new parts As we exit we think of our performances on this stage and cry to realize that we leave it behind Yet we are glad to make our entrance on a new stage with style and flair A dramatic debut into our own new world Thank you everyone for making my SENIOR year (no pun intended Mr. Davis) my best year here. Alex. Chester. Suite 234. Michael, Kara, and Jon. Candi without you and my crisis I would never have survived. Suzanne Bates, Debbie Saltz and Big J. when I couldn’t be there you helped. Thank you. Mom and Dad, thank you for Gould. I know you went through as much as I did. I love you. 18
