To our 8th grade students moving on to High School...

Yearbook message from Principal Hendrickson. 

Congratulations on your completion of middle school and your entry into high school!  I hope you are proud of your achievements here at Comstock Middle School, and are looking forward to developing yourselves as learners and people who can make a great contribution to our community.  We send you off with high hopes that you will use your unique capabilities to improve our world.  It is with this in mind that we developed Comstock into what it is today: a school striving to be a leader in 21st century learning.

You are the class that developed a new school with us.  You saw us add many new electives to the school such as band, performing arts, digital storytelling, and Project Make.  You helped us usher in new culture building activities such as Community Building Days, “Chill Skills”, Safe School Ambassadors, The Boys& Girls Club, student clubs and student government.   Many of you ran for office for the first time in a number of years. Some of you created videos, prepared for renaissance rallies, served on our student senate, sang in the choir, built garden beds, cooked delicious food, created beautiful art, wrote novels, developed your math skills on ALEKS, did science experiments, developed Google presentations in History, played on our athletic teams, played soccer on teams that were undefeated and more.   All of you worked to build your knowledge to the best of your ability.  Thank you for all of your efforts!  No matter what ups and downs we faced together over these past two years, we will always be a community and you will always be part of the Comstock family.  We truly respect you and are honored that we had a chance to share time with you in such a wonderful learning environment.  You are the treasures of our hearts.  

It is with deep respect that I, representing all the staff at Comstock, say to you:  well, done!  I hope you leave here without regrets.  Take every success you had here as wind beneath your wings to help you fly. Take every failure as a lesson to be learned towards future success.  We will always believe in you, and we will always be your friend.
