"Every teacher, without fail, approached me after my first class, offering their availability to meet, should I need any help catching up or understanding the material. Reflecting on this experience, I now realize that the warmth and inclusivity I encountered during my transition to FCS was not an isolated incident. Rather, it was a reflection of the character and values that define our graduating class and this school."

"Together we have made some of the most incredible memories. Our grade from the start has shown itself to be one that believes in a sense of unity... As we all begin to go our separate ways, as we begin to take these memories and disperse them throughout the world, and share them beyond the confines of our Friends' Central community, I hope that these core values that you have given me will be shared with your future communities."
