Buna High
We did begin to grow
Learning many new things
Never forget the good times together
The classes filled with excitement to learn
And the ideal of growing up
Many trips on big yellow dogs
Lockers filled with pictures
Lunches around the table of cafeteria food
Hi and byes as passing friends
In the busy hall
Some classes tough and stressful
While others just fun
Excuses to get out of Spanish
Table dancing in Physics
Getting kicked out of Government
And teachers become friends
These years together was wonderful and great
Full of much tears, joys and fears
We grew and change
From our attitude to friends
And found our pathways and gain the name "Senior"
It now has come to an end
Time to dress in blue
And walk across the stage
Not turning to look back
On friends we left behind at Buna High
But
As we look into our past,
We realize the years have flown by,
Yet time has saved the best for last
Never letting our memories die.

Graduation
This is the day
I have waited for many years
The feel of excitement
But also nervousness has taken over
I sit surrounded by many other friends
We all dress nicely in our blue growns
Place on our heads a blue cap
With a blue and white tassel hanging down
One by one our name is called
Time to walk across that stage
And look out into the room
Crowed full of family and friends
My name has been called
So I start on my way
I get on stage but pause for a minute
As I turn and look behind me
My friends are sitting there
With tears in their eyes
Remembering all the times we had together
Wishing there could be more
Teachers that touch my life
Are there with big smiles on their faces
They have help me to learn and grow
Also showed me to have fun and everything I do
Then I see a mother and father filled with excitement
There baby girl as grown up
They have been there my whole life
Helping me the whole way though
I keep walking down the stage
I have just left a old world
That I knew for many years
With a whole new world to explore
I could not be here now
If I did not have that support
From the three most important people that I know
Friends, Teachers, and especially Family.
-Amanda Haynes
As we entered Buna High
Scared of what is to come
And especially of the title "fish"
Lost in our way to find the right class
Looking upon the many new faces
