Dear Class of 2025,
Congratulations on reaching this wonderful milestone! Watching each of you grow over these past years has been one of the greatest joys of our lives. From the very first day you stepped into our classrooms, you brought energy, curiosity, and kindness—and you have amazed us time and again with your creativity, your laughter, and your big hearts.
There truly is no place like Archer—and yet, we know that wherever you go next, you will flourish. Your resilience has shone through every challenge, whether learning a tricky new math concept or settling those recess disagreements with fairness and care. Your voices are powerful and clear, and we cannot wait to see how you use them to shape your communities.
We will miss our daily routines: collecting your cell phones each morning (yes, even when you tried hiding them!), trailing behind you in the hallways just to say “hello,” and those impromptu storytelling sessions at lunch. Each moment—big or small—has made our days brighter and our school stronger.
Never forget how one-of-a-kind you are. The spirit, curiosity, and compassion you bring to the world make you incredible scholars and even more wonderful people. As you move on to new adventures, carry with you the lessons, friendships, and memories we’ve built together here at Archer.
Please come back and visit us often. Our doors—and our hearts—are always open for you. We’re so proud of all you’ve accomplished and can’t wait to hear about the amazing things you’ll do next.
With love and pride,
Ms. Finerty and Ms. Broege
