This is the last piece I will write for The Leopard's Roar.

Thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. From me, from Mr. Hendrick, from the entire Leopard's Roar staff, thank you. This year has undeniably been the most successful year in the history of The Leopard's Roar.

This year, 45 articles were written and published on this webpage, and that doesn't include this note, Student Written entries, or the Senior Issue. In the past, The Leopard's

Roar was lucky to have 45 articles written in two or three years. This is a huge milestone, not to mention the fact that we have brought Liberty High School further into the technology age, forming an online newspaper while many schools don't even print one anymore.

This couldn't have been accomplished without a few special people. I would of course like to thank everyone who took a few minutes out of their day to read the articles posted here, and of course the students, teachers, coaches, and community members who helped to answer questions for articles. That's what kept this website updated.

But I would be kidding myself if I didn't thank the support team that has helped this website get to where it is. Debra, Allison, Michael, and Ahmad, my editors, thank you. And Mr. Hendrick, whose idea it was to go online in the first place, thank you.

I spent four years working on The Leopard's Roar, and I couldn't be happier seeing what it has become.

I guess I'll end this thank you note with some advice. That's what seniors tend to do. But really, in all seriousness, in the words of Mother Theresa, "Life is a dream. Realize it."

Don't forget your dream. Follow it until you have reached it.

Once again, thank you.
