Season 2: Episode 17: Valedictorian Jonah Gomez: Strength Through Struggle
As we close out Season 2 of Cardinal Fly By with a special three-part series highlighting standout voices from Osborne’s Class of 2025, this episode features valedictorian Jonah Gomez—an exceptional student, dedicated three-sport athlete, and a powerful voice for his peers.
Jonah’s journey through high school was shaped by his decision to use life’s challenges as fuel for growth and motivation. From the moment he stepped into Osborne, he committed to turning hardship into purpose—excelling academically, athletically, and personally.
In this episode, we get to know Jonah beyond the stage as he shares insights into his high school experience, his approach to leadership, and the story behind his powerful graduation address. And by popular demand from the Osborne community, Jonah reads his full valedictorian speech on air—a message that struck a deep chord at graduation and continues to inspire. In fact, a clip from his speech posted to Instagram has already reached over 22,000 people, speaking to the impact of his words and the strength of his message.
Jonah reminds us that resilience isn't just about enduring—it’s about transforming struggle into strength. His story is a testament to the spirit of Osborne and a powerful sendoff for the Class of 2024.
