The 8th graders at Marine View Middle School were asked to write an essay or poem reflecting on their time in Junior High. Austin's was selected to be presented at their commencement. He did a wonderful job, speaking very confidently. Thanks to him for wearing a concealed microphone. That made my audio so much better. His friends did think that he was "wearing a wire" was pretty cool.
You can also see and hear him receive his diploma and a couple of other short speeches. I left the last clip, because as always he is quick to take his cue to exit and make sure the kid behind him is following.
Sorry it took a couple of days. I had some technical difficulties.

Wow... an amazing accomplishment. Way to go Austin... Here's looking to the race in 2032 (the first one you will be eligible to run for President in that is)
That was so cool....seriously.
Class of 2012 - High School, here comes W. AUSTIN BAKER!
He truly is an exceptional young man. It's crazy that he's in high school! He was about Travis' age when we moved here... hard to believe.
Austin! What a great job. OK...you made me teary eyed...I'm very proud of you! Love you, Miss Stacey :)
I totally teared up....so proud! Congrats. Don't forget who took you on your first date Austin! :o)
