What will your speech ideas for your high school graduation be about? High School Graduation is a night your peers will always remember! Schools are now having 300 – 400 students graduating in one night. Speakers have to keep their speeches somewhat short.

Remind them of good things that happened and remind them of things you as a class have gone through together. Talk about things that happened worldwide.
1. Include stories that most of the students will remember.
Maybe there was something that happened to a teacher, or a special teacher that made your high school days the best they could ever be. Is there a story that all the students would love to hear about? Maybe you can talk about something to do with a favorite teacher.
2. Remember to keep the story tasteful as this is a special occasion, and keep it somewhat formal at the same time, while making it memorable too.
Graduation is a major milestone you have accomplished together. Think about your classmates while giving your speech, and the parents, and grandparents that have supported your class all these years, that are here for this joyous occasion.
