QSI has been a very unpredictable road to traverse, given the number of occurrences that have happened over the years has been eventful. Some filled with joy, memories, and accomplishments, others filled with sorrows, anger, and surprises. Experiences vary from one another, but the strongest feelings of connection (not the Wi-Fi).  Being in a small school, the community is in close proximity, which gives room for being acquainted with everyone. Regarding the workload, everyone should understand that it is for their own benefit. You may think of school as an obstacle you want out of your way as soon as possible (and as easiest as possible), but I assure you that the time will come faster than you think, and the only thing I can say about that is to think about what you want to be in 5 years, about where you’re standing, living, or doing. This isn’t about being your ‘best possible self,’ but rather what you can do now, in the present, to achieve your ambition. One of my best teachers that has passed down the greatest lesson to me was Mr. Warren, working to better the education of us students in an enjoyable way, which is to take your own initiative to self-educate as you are the one to take in information at will. My special thanks go to all the students, staff, teachers and friends who have had hope in my potential and determination. I wish you all the best in life.
