Student success statement
“Honesty is the cornerstone of characters. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to be scrupulously fair, upright, and fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.”
B.C Forbes

What he is saying is that your character is what makes you. If you are honest than that is your character but if you are not that is a bad character. So it’s better to have a better honest character than to have a dishonest character.

Student Success Statement
“Stop worrying about whether you’re going to win or lose and focus your full attention on what is happening right this moment.”
-Phil Jackson


What he is saying is that don’t pay attention to if you’re going to win or not just think about how you have to play and to have fun while doing it. If you think about it too much you won’t be calm and have fun. For example: if you are doing a test don’t focus on thinking I’m going to get an f just try to remember and just do what you do best
