Student Success Statement

"No student ever attains eminent success by simply doing what required of him/her it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction."

-Charles Kendall Adams, American historian

What I think this means is that you don’t become successful in life; it isn’t that simple you have to achieve it in order to be successful. This means wonderful things and good things and always do what is right in order achieve what you want.

Student success statement

“Doing what is right fair and honorable is more important than winning or losing.”

-Chick Moorman

What this means to me is that if you’re in a race and your opponent needs help then you should help them it doesn’t matter if they are against you, you should still help cause that’s better than being rude and seeing them struggle so grow up and help them cause what if that was you? Wouldn’t you like them to help.

Student Success Statement

“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company.”

-ANON

Reflection:

What I think this means is that, if you’re alone then there’s no distraction and nobody to tell you do wrong things that won’t do you any good. So it’s always best to be alone because by yourself you make your own right decisions on what you think is best for yourself and not letting the wrong people tell you what is wrong at the wrong time, so it’s always best to be alone.

Student Success Statement

I think it's better to do right,

even if we suffer in so doing,

than to incur the reproach at

our consciences”

-Robert E. Lee

Reflection-

What I think this means is that doing the right is always the best even if you get picked on for doing right or even if people tell you something about, cause you’ll have it better in life form doing right. And don’t listen to your consciences because sometimes it tells you to do wrong and follow the trend of what others are doing.

Woodrow Wilson

Student Success Statement

“Tell me what is right and

I will fight for it.”

-Woodrow Wilson

What I think this means is that, to tell them what is right and they’ll fight whatever they have to in order to do it and not be a big mess up so they do whatever they have to in order to do everything right so they can be a good person.

Student Success Statement

“Disciplining yourself to do

what you know is right and important,

although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-

esteem, and personal satisfaction.”

-Margaret Thatcher

What this means to me is that you want to set yourself as a good example even through rough times you always want to be known as a good person. Even though we learn from our mistakes, like you’re not always going to be a good person all perfect no mistakes you’re always going to mess up here and there so don’t always try to do good cause the only way we learn is from our mistakes to learn good from them. So don’t try to set yourself as perfect set yourself as smart and always doing what’s important.

Student Success Statement

“If any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing”

-Theodore Roosevelt

What I think this means is when you come a pond a situation and you don’t know what to do and its really bad the best think you should do is the right thing and never do wrong.

Student Success Statement

“Every time I’ve done something

that doesn’t feel right, it’s ended

up not being right”

-Mario Cuomo

Reflection:

What I think this means is that if your mom yells at you and telling you to clean up the house

and you’re too lazy to get up cause you think if you get up you’ll be more tired and it’s just not

right for you to have to get up when you’re tired but it’s okay for them and then you realize what

could have happened if you would of helped your mom things would end up going right.

And just because you feel it isn’t right it is!!

Student Success Statement

“Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.”

-Carol Burnett

Reflection:

What I think this means is that you are your own person you control what you do!

So if a friend says “Hey let’s smoke some pot?” you have the right to say no and make

a difference in your life and choose the right thing and you won’t live the guilt that

you made a mistake in your life and get addicted and ruin it, cause you did the right thing

and said no and that’s life changing because now you are good and drug free.

Student Success Statement

“There is no pillow so soft as a

clear conscience”

-French Proverb

Reflection:

What I think this means is that when you have a clear conscience you don’t thing good or bad things. So you don’t think anything and have nothing to worry about, like when you’re about to sleep on that nice pillow nothing goes through your head but getting your sleep. Just like your conscience you think nothing bad about people. For example when I have a clear conscience  I don’t think about anybody or anything so I feel like I have nothing to worry about and everything is going right, and having the feeling that I’m doing something right feels great.

Student Success Statement

“I shall pass through this life but

once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it; for I shall never pass this way again.”

-ANON

Reflection:

What I think this means is that we only live once so why mess it up, live life to your fullest and choose the right never do wrong because you mess up once you won’t be able to fix it because you already messed up. There won’t always be second chances. And when you mess up once don’t go down that road again you don’t want to mess up and make the same dumb choices you did before so it’s time to start fresh. And act like nothing happened.

Student Success Statement

 “You have only always to do what

is right. It will become easier by

practice, and you will enjoy in the

midst or your trials the pleasure of

an approving conscience.”

Robert E. Lee

Reflection:

What I think this mean is that you should always do the right. If you keep doing what’s right with all practice it will become easier as you go. You will enjoy choosing the right because you can feel good about yourself and be like I’ve never done wrong in life maybe a few times but not all so when you pass by people you have nothing to worry about cause you’ve chosen the right so there isn’t anything to worry about. You will enjoy walking around helping people and never doing wrong things to feel good about yourself. You will never be in problems because you’ve never done anything wrong to make yourself look bad. Like when you walk by people they can be look that’s the nice person that never did wrong in school or in life. And when you hear them saying that about you you’ll be proud and feel good about yourself. And when you move on in life you’ll never live with the guilt that you did something wrong. But since you did right you can move on in life and feel good about yourself and never live with guilt ever in your life. So it’s best to start choosing the right now because it’s always better sooner than later, so choose the right.

Student Success Statement

I have three messages:

(1)     We should never, ever give up.

(2)    You are never too old to chase your dreams

(3)    It looks like a solitary sport, but it takes a team

Diana Nyad, American Swimmer

Reflection:

What I think this means is that we should chase our dreams

and don’t let anything stop you from doing it.

Your mind can conceive, what your body can achieve.

No matter what your dreams are keep chancing them and you

accomplish it. never give up on yourself

Music

 What I like about music is that I feel like it’s my get away and

I can relate to some of the singers problems and feelings and we just

connect and it doesn’t feel like I’m alone and that’s what I like about music.

Student Success Statement

“To know what is right and not to do it

Is the worst cowardice”

Confucius

Reflection:

What I think this means is that you know what is right but you decide to do the wrong just because you don’t want people to say stuff about you so you let them boss you around. Cause you don’t want look like a chicken.

Student Success Statement

“We need the courage to start and continue what we

should do, and the courage to stop

what we shouldn’t do”

Richard L. Evans

What I think this quote means is we should do what’s right

And not do what is wrong. We need people to encourage

us in doing in doing what is right to be good, not people

to encourage us in doing what is not right and be bad. Like get

a good education pass high school. Not flunk or drop out. We should Pass and

do the right things.
