'Pomp and Circumstance' for Hillview Middle School

The Hillview Graduation Band will play "Pomp and Circumstance" by Edward Elgar for the processional.

Richard Vaughan, music specialist, will direct the band of sixth-, seventh- and eighth-graders, as they also play "Tempest Rising" by David Shaffer; "Main Street America," arranged by Gary Gilroy; "Louie Louie," arranged by Jerry Burns; and "Legacy March" by Steve Hodges for the recessional.

Students are being chosen this week as graduation speakers to represent the Class of 2004. The Hillview tradition is for each eighth-grader to write, memorize and give a speech on the same theme: "Life's Lessons."

The eighth-graders have invited Hillview teacher Phil Eaton, who directs special studies for sixth- through eighth-graders, to be the adult speaker.

This year, a member of the Morris Sorrells family will present the Jeff Sorrells Memorial Award, a college scholarship, to Diana Somtorn, who graduates this week from Menlo-Atherton High School. Diana will then introduce this year's award recipient who will use the college scholarship upon graduation from high school in four years. The award, now given for the 18th year, was established by the Sorrells family in honor of their son, who was a student at Hillview.

Principal Mike Moore will give a short talk and present the eighth-grade class to their core teachers, who will present the diplomas. The teachers are Daria Finstad, Carolyn Malquist, Willy Haug, Michael Karlin, Nancy Haight, Lexy Keller, Megan Curtis and Shirley Reed.

Librarian Sue Krumbein, who is retiring after 25 years in the Menlo Park district as a teacher and librarian at Hillview, will assist the teachers in presenting the diplomas.

A reception for the graduates and guests will be hosted by the seventh-grade parents immediately after the ceremony. The graduates will celebrate afterward at the traditional grad night party, sponsored by their parents and held in the school's multi-use room.
