- I thank this school for giving me the education and diploma that gave me the opportunity to join the United States Army and fight for the freedoms that we hold so dear. Thank you to all the teachers, former or not, that helped me get to where I am today. And finally, to the class of 2007...HOOAH!!! IT'S AN ARMY THING! - PV2 SLOWIK.
