“At first nothing comes; Then nothing stays;
In the end, nothing goes.”
- Milarepa
Head of SchoolDr. Joyce Robinson
To laugh often and much; to w in the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better w hether by a healthy child a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.
-Ralph Waldo Em erson

P r o m tta . .xiCLitorsAfter seventy com puter breakdow ns, having to kick people out of the library fifty tim es, over a thousand complaints from other people about th e ir pictures and hours of mockery, we put together...this. Even though it may seem like a piece of cake, we actually did have to work a lot to get to w here w e’ve gotten. SO RESPECT US! This yearbook would be horrible if it w eren’t for us. But it would be ten tim es worse w ithout Ms. Shofner. Locked up in the library for hours every day, she w ent th rough the bits and pieces th a t we made and helped tu rn them into a cohesive work. We would like to th an k The Dwight School for giving us the opportunity to participate in a class specifically designed for yearbook, th u s giving us the chance to actually layout and create pages, not ju s t crop and measure pictures. We would like to th an k anyone who gave us any p ic tu res, especially Ms.Grayson and Ms. Knodell. A lso, thanks to the rest of the yearbook staff, we know that you did a lot to make th is happen.
Your E dito rs, Kris B artkus, Sumaya Jackson and Tiffany Yaraghi
Congratulations to the Class of 2004!!! This has been an incredible high school experience ■ and I couldn’t have asked for a better four years. Even though we are moving on and taking different paths in our lives, th a t doesn’t m ean th a t we will forget the amazing memories th a t we haved shared. Also to the editors of yearbook, Sumaya Jackson and Kris Bartkus you guys are awesome! The yearbook is amazing, and you guys are the best. The yearbook w ouldn’t have been possible w ithout Ms. Shofner, you put everything into the year book and it was so w orth it. I couldn’t have asked for a better yearbook!
- Tiffany
This is the best yearbook th a t I ’ve seen in the four years th a t I ’ve attended The Dwight School. Coming to class every day 2 , 4 , and 5 w asn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Chayanee working on her page for m o n th s , Kris trying to come up w ith strange captions, and Tiffany putting in everyone’s names. I hope th is yearbook w ith be som ething th a t I look at in years to come and ju s t be able to say, “Wow, look at w hat we did!” This yearbook w ouldn’t be possible if it w eren’t for Ms. Shofner and for th a t I th an k h e r a lot.
-Sumaya
big ups to ms. shofner, for allowing, through no little pain or in ternal conflict, to let my im agination ru n wild, and for coping w ith my pessimism and dark hum or, respect to the other editors and other people on the staff, most of whom probably th in k th a t i ’m crazy, bu t w ithout whom i w ouldn’t have anyone to act crazy in front of. a shoutout to everyone th a t w asn’t on my senior page w hen i made i t , bu t would be on it if i made it today, especially the entire'm ock tria ls team , most especially Gabija, w ithout whom making yearbook w ouldn’t have been as cheeky (get it., i t ’s a... pun! hah)., m uch ; love to ya. -Kris

There are times when you get hit upon
Try hard but you cannot give
Other times you’d gladly part With what you need to live
Don’t waste the breath to save
your face
When you have done your
bestAnd even more is asked of
you
Let fate decide the rest.All the stars are gone but one
Morning breaks here comes
the sunCross the sky now sinking
fastShow me something built to
last- Grateful Dead
After 9 years here you’d think I would have known everyone and everything that there is to know about life at school. Unfortunately I don’t, but I don’t think I’m alone. I come out of senior year without knowing where I’m gonna go, what I’m gonna be, or who I really am, but I do know that the next 4 years are about to be a real experience. I can,t wait, I want to go so bad, yet I don’t want to go at all. Life is odd that way, you think you know everything there is to know and then you realize you know nothing at all. Well, I can honestly say if there’s one thing I’ve learned in school its that I know nothing at all and now that I’m starting to know something, its apparent to me more than ever that I know
nothing of what’s to come. The only thing I know right now is that the people I’ve met and the things I’ve done and experienced are going to leave an impression that will stay
with me forever. Today I’m just a kid at the bottom of a hill, tomorrow I might be a man upon a hill, someday I might be that hill. Who knows, life’s out there and its mine for the taking, all I have to do now is take it.

To Mom, DM and Mar^uerlteL Thank you so much for being such great parents. You helped me get ready for the real world and become the person I am today. I love you guys more then words can say. Sis, your the best little sister a brother could ask for. The vacations we took, the time we spent together and having your support will be memories I will always remember and keep with me for the rest of my life. I could not ask for more amazing family than
Emily MatlesMom: Thank you for always being supportive of
me. You are my best friend. We have fun doing everything from shopping, to teaching you how to use the TV remote and the computer. We also have many laughs over our crazy relatives. I love you so much, thanks for being there for me when I needed someone to talk to. Remeber things over time will get better, I know you will make it.
Dad: RIP 5/8/03. I love you so much and I miss you. I know you are still watching over me and I hope I have made you proud.
Lauren: My little sister. I love you. I will never forget our days and nights of cracking up and being immature.We always have fun at family events. If you ever need me next year when I am away you know I am always free to be there for you. I’m glad that you and I have become close to eachother. Thank you for everything. I hope everything goes well for you in the future.
Poco: My PUPPY! I LOOOVE U! Mr.. Wiggles!DWIGHT Girls: You guys all help me get through the day. When I’m in my grumpy mood you all
know how to cheer me up. It has been a pretty good four years guys. I love you all and I know we will stay in touch for years to come. I also hope you all do well in college. (Michy, Tiffy,Chay, Sam, Alex, Chelsey, Chelsea, Pardis)
Watitoh: My favorite camp years. I love you girls! You guys are life long friends. I can honestly say I know all of you like the back of my hand. Thank you all for being there for me when my dad passed away. There will always be a place in my heart for all of you.
Lara: 10 year BFF Club! I met you when I was in second grade and ever since then we have been causing trouble. I love you so much and we have so many memories together. I hope everything works out in your future and you better have a blast in college. I love you and I will miss you.
Carlos: Thanks for being there for me when I needed you when my dad passed away. You are my bestfriend. We have been through thick and thin. I hope everything works out for you in the future. I love you.

When I moved to the United States I was so scared to leave my city, my country, my friends, my relatives
that I couldn’t even think that I would have lived two years in another country far from everything that I had
built. I was really concerned in starting a complete new life leaving my entire past life in Italy. I did it and I
am really happy to have done it. If I have been able to overcome all the difficulties I have found, it was for
my tenacity and for my determination to go ahead, not to stop and to change my life. I must admit that I
would never have been able to go so far without the full support of my family. They have provided me the
help that I needed.
In particular I am extremely grateful to my twin sister who patiently helped me to go through all the
challenges that everyday I have been required to overcome. I have to thank my friends in Italy that have
given me the energy to keep going and never give up. Not a day has gone without thinking of them all. I can
not express my gratitude to everyone just with this page, but they already know how much I care of them.
Ciao, come ho gia’ detto non vi posso rigraziare tutti e se non vi ho citato e solo perche’ in questo momento
non mi venite in mente. Vi ringrazio comunque tutti perche’ senza di voi non avrei superato nemmeno un
giorno in America.
Grazie Ivan, Luciano, Luca Scala, Cristina dark, Flavia, Giovanna, Nicole, Pietro, Sabina, Dario S., Dario P.,
Mattia, Andrea ff., Marco, Lucia, ecc....scusate se non vi ho scritto ma vi voglio bene.
Deve ringraziare il gruppo scout Roma 5 0 che mi ha incredibilmente aiutato a crescere e a rendermi una
persona migliore. Grazie da Leopardo Tenace a tutti voi.
Grazie a mio “fratello” Andrea. Grazie Francesco, Riccardo, Cristina, Gianluca, Michelino, Enzo T., Marina,
Laura, Francesca,Valeria, Stefania, Dario, Enzo F, Teresina e Marzia. E grazie a mia nipote Robertina. Grazie ai
mie magnifici zii: Dona, Claudio,Dino,Gabriella, Paola, Gennaro, Ivana, Elena, Orfeo, Geppino, Mario, Rita,
Maria Rosaria, Mimmo E Virginia. Grazie ai miei nonni: Enzo, Teresa, Licia, Giuseppe, Colomba.
Grazie Mamma, papa’, Licia e Teresa e scusate se qualche volta mi comporto male con voi, non e’ colpa
vostra e solo e soltanto mia.Mamma ti voglio un bene dell’anima, Licia grazie di avermi sostenuto durante questa esperienza in America,
Papa’ grazie di avermi dato questa opportunita’ e Teresa grazie di essere mia sorella.

These years hove com e and gone so quickly. They have been filled with endless ups and downs, I have hod the most wonderful support and guidance that I could ask for,
For four years I hove been surrounded by tremendously caring and compassionate people, I would like to thank all my teachers for putting up with me and listening to my complaining all the time. I have to thank my tutor and friend Rachel. If there is one person I could attribute my academ ic success to, it would be you. You have also been such a wonderful friend and to me, you ore the sister I never hod. Thank you! I would also like to thank my Dwight friends: Henry-thank you for your love, jokes and trust,Sumy- You ore so beautiful in so many ways, you ore such a strong person. Shoiini- We might not read the some books (hehe) but our friendship is deeper than that (level -12). Jonese- we only met in 11th grade but we have more fun together than I could have ever imagined, keep that Latin flavor, Julia- we ore so similar and yet this post year brought us closer than ever and I am so grateful for that, Thora-aithough you have graduated, you still and will always be, such a big port of me and I know I con count on you and visa versa, Jeff-You ore so much more than a friend and I always wont you to be in my life, I also wont to acknowledge my other Dwight friends: Inbol, Shimrit, Moryze, John, Pardis, Kadia, JJ and Jax. Of course I cant forget my best friend, Eliono, You hove taught me so much and we hove had such a blast along the way! I couldn't have m ode it this for without you, I love you so much,To my parents- There hove been good times and bod and through it all you have shown me how unfailing your love and patience is.
Thank you for always believing in me and pushing me to try my best,I hove unlimited respect and love for you, I am looking forward to the next phase of my life in college, wherever that may be, I hope that my future has just as many impactful experiences os I have had in Dwight, Thank You,
