2025年6月19日，九年级全体学生齐聚礼堂, 迎来了初中毕业典礼。学生们兴奋不已, 交谈甚欢。在一派喜悦与期待中，毕业典礼拉开序幕。

一段回忆过去四年点滴的视频，为毕业生们的欢笑与快乐、挫折与迷茫打上了高光。学生们在家长和老师雷鸣般的掌声中依次入场。

 

学生代表朱翌萱随后登台, 她以童年节日的欢乐为起点，回忆中学时期共同度过的时光，从日常小事中捕捉生活的温度。在星校的九年时光里，她找到了自我表达的方式——通过影像，通过表演，在现实与幻想之间构建自我表达的舞台。她强调：成长不仅是经历现实，更是用想象丰富生命。最后，她深情感谢老师、家人与同学，并以幽默温暖的方式结束，表达了对未来的期待和祝福。

星校始终将立德树人放在学生教育的首要位置，倡导德智体美劳“五育并举”。强调“中国核，世界流”的办学理念，培养学生将个人发展融合到国家兴旺发展之中，努力成为 “五育并举”、品学兼优，“出得去，回得来”，具有国际视野的未来建设者与接班人。为此特设立学生发展奖学金。胡清湉书记宣布了获得学生发展奖学金的同学名单。李校长和马校长为获得该奖学金的星校学子们颁奖并合影留念。

随后, 九年级家长代表刘逸轩妈妈发表了她的感言。过去四年中, 她见证孩子从天真走向自信的成长历程——这一转变并非源于轰轰烈烈的事件, 而是在日复一日的平凡中悄然发生的。她高度赞扬学校“立德树人”的初心与“中国核，世界流”的教育理念，认为真正的教育不仅是知识灌输，更是激发内心力量与责任感。重要的不仅是学术上的成就, 更在于唤醒内在的力量、善良、责任感、创造力与同情心。

在九年级毕业典礼的温馨时刻，2025届毕业生家长代表向学校赠送了毕业纪念礼物——一套音响设备。该设备将安置于学校大礼堂，用于支持学生今后的各类演出与活动，为校园艺术氛围的营造注入新的动能。这一礼物不仅承载着家长们对学校教育的感恩之情，也寄托着他们对毕业生们继续发光发热、勇敢追梦的深切祝福。

郑主任作为教师代表发表了热情洋溢的致辞。她深情回顾了与学生们共同度过的点点滴滴，言语间满是温情与不舍。回望四年，学生们在科技、人文、体育、艺术等多个领域展现出多元的才华，取得了令人瞩目的成绩，充分体现了星校学生的风采。郑主任特别勉励毕业生们始终秉持“中国核，世界流”的理念，心怀家国，胸有世界，勇敢追梦，担当未来。她也衷心祝愿每一位学子前程似锦，带着四年积淀的底气与力量，奔赴人生更广阔的舞台。

庄严的拨穗仪式带着浓厚的象征意味开始了。学生走上舞台, 领取毕业证书，接受校领导为他们拨穗，此刻，他们正式光荣毕业。这一个时刻不仅属于学生们, 更属于一直支持他们、陪伴他们成长的父母和老师们。舞台上的笑容与拥抱夹杂着泪水——毕业生们在这里庆祝一个篇章的结束与另一个篇章的开始。

随后，毕业生们演唱了原创毕业歌曲《星旅》。这首由学生们亲自创作和编曲的作品表达了此刻复杂的情感——即使即将开启下一个篇章, 星校四年的记忆也会一直与我们相伴。

典礼即将结束之际, 学生们迎来了一场惊喜。随着音乐响起, 令人意想不到的快闪表演突然上演。伴随着《High School Musical》的经典曲目《We’re All In This Together》, 老师和同学们共同跳起了活力四射的舞蹈。或许前行的道路本就如此，充满惊喜，令人期待。

毕业不是终点，而是新的起点。愿九年级的同学们怀揣初心与梦想，自信启程，奔赴属于自己的星辰大海。毕业不说再见，星校将始终关注你们的成长，为你们的每一次闪光喝彩。

On the nineteenth of June,  the entirety of Grade Nine gathered in the auditorium for one of the most anticipated events of the year: their middle school graduation ceremony. Students bustled with excitement,  mingling with friends as their parents chatted nearby. A sense of celebration and joy filled the air as students, parents, and teachers eagerly awaited the start of the ceremony.  

The auditorium screen lit up, playing a heartfelt and sentimental video featuring the graduates, marking the official beginning of the event. Shortly after,  the graduates were introduced and greeted with thunderous applause from both parents and peers. Once all students had taken their seats,  Doris Zhu,  the student representative,  took the stage to deliver a speech that was both nostalgic and full of hope. She reminisced about Halloween celebrations and other school memories before reflecting on the power of imagination—the human ability to innovate,  create,  and bring about change. Doris concluded by expressing heartfelt gratitude to those who had supported her throughout her middle school journey: her classmates, parents, teachers, and the audience.

Our school upholds the idea of “cultivating virtues and nurturing talents” as the cornerstone of student education, advocating for the holistic development of students. Embracing the educational philosophy of "global education with the Chinese core", the school empowers students to align personal growth with national prosperity, striving to become well-rounded, morally grounded, and academically excellent future builders and successors with global perspectives. To this end, the Student Development Scholarship was established. Ms. Hu Qingtian announced the list of scholarship recipients, and Principal Li and Principal Ma presented awards to the honored students.

Following the awarding of the scholarship, Eason Liu’s mother, the Grade Nine parent representative, shared her own reflections. She spoke warmly of the past four years,  recalling how she had witnessed her child’s transformation from innocence to confidence—not through dramatic milestones,  but through the quiet,  steady rhythm of daily life. She praised the school’s commitment to character-based education rooted in Chinese tradition while embracing global perspectives. She emphasized that true education is not solely about academic achievement, but about awakening inner strength, kindness, responsibility, creativity, and compassion.

During the heartwarming ceremony for the ninth-grade graduation, parents of the Class of 2025 presented a commemorative gift to the school—a professional sound system. This equipment will be installed in the school auditorium to support future student performances and events, enhancing the campus artistic environment. The gift embodies not only parents’ gratitude for the school’s education but also their deepest wishes for the graduates to shine brightly, pursue dreams courageously, and continue making meaningful contributions.

Then, Ms. Zheng delivered a warm and passionate speech as the representative of the faculty. She affectionately recalled the precious memories shared with the students. Over the past four years, the students have showcased diverse talents in fields such as technology, humanities, sports, and art, achieving remarkable accomplishments that fully embody the spirit of Starriver School students. Ms. Zheng particularly encouraged the graduates to always uphold the philosophy of "global education with the Chinese core", cherish their homeland, embrace the world, pursue dreams courageously, and shoulder the responsibilities of the future. She also sincerely wished every student a bright future, urging them to embark on the broader stage of life with the confidence and strength gained over the past four years.

The ceremony then reached its most symbolic and emotional climax: the turning of the tassel. As each student walked across the stage to receive their diploma,  they officially earned the title of graduate. It was a proud moment—not only for the students,  but also for the parents and teachers who had guided and supported them along the way. The stage was filled with smiles,  hugs,  and even a few tears as graduates celebrated the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. For many,  it was a bittersweet farewell to familiar classrooms,  old friendships,  and treasured memories. But it was also a hopeful step forward—toward new experiences, deeper growth, and the exciting, unknown journey of high school.   

To bring the ceremony to a heartfelt close, the graduates performed an original song titled Journey of the Stars. Written and composed by students,  the song captured the emotions of the moment—gratitude for the past,  pride in how far they’ve come,  and excitement for the future. As their voices filled the auditorium, the lyrics served as a powerful reminder that while their paths may now diverge, they will always share the memories and bonds of middle school.  

However, to the students’ surprise, some teachers and students had something up their sleeves. All of a sudden,  music began playing—and before anyone knew it,  a flash mob broke out to “We’re All In This Together” from High School Musical. Students and teachers rushed onstage,  dancing and singing with infectious energy. The audience clapped along,  cheering and laughing as the unexpected performance turned the formal ceremony into a lively celebration. It was a joyful and unforgettable moment that perfectly captured the spirit of unity and fun shared by the graduating class.  

The 2025 middle school graduation was more than just a ceremony—it was a celebration of growth, friendship, and unforgettable memories. From heartfelt speeches to surprise performances,  every moment reflected the unique spirit of the graduating class. As the students step into high school,  they carry with them not only their diplomas,  but also the laughter,  lessons,  and bonds that shaped their journey so far. Though they leave middle school behind,  the experiences and connections they’ve made will continue to guide and inspire them in the exciting years ahead.
