Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement 

"Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence, is the key to unlocking our potential." 
Liane Cordes

What this quote means is that it doesn't matter on how smart or how strong you are, it matters on how hard you try. It means you don't have be the strongest or smartest person in the world, but as long as you give it you all and try. An example could be a sport. Lets say there is a person stronger and faster and everything is perfect about that player. But you, you don't have none of these perks, as long as you try! You don't need any of that stuff, but as long as you try your best and never quit.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement 

"When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece. This rule is even more important in life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself to the task of becoming a little better each and every day over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day."

John Wooden


What this quote means is that you never quit. Even if you are outnumbered, you still continue and fight for what you stand for. Let no one ever step on you you. Yes you may fall, but remember this: you will always pick yourself up afterwards! So as long as you defend yourself, you should be outstanding. And by doing this you will always choose the right!!!
