S.S.S Alan Stein

Student Success Statement

"Success is not an accident. Success is actually a choice. 

Are the habits you have today on par with the dreams you have tomorrow?"

Alan Stein

Reflection: I agree with this quote because you do not just wake up one day and choose to be great and it gets handed to you. You have to work hard and practice and try your best to get to where you want to go. You cannot expect to be the best at a sport or the smartest kid when all you do is watch TV all day. You have to practice and study and try harder than the rest. 

S.S.S. Chinese Proverb

Student Success Statement

If there us beauty in character, there will be harmony in the home.

If there is harmony in the home, there will be order in the nation.

If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world.

Conclusion:

If there is beauty in character, there will be peace in the world. 

Chinese Proverb

 Reflection: This is a very wise saying. If we are bale to have good character and do the fight thing, there will be no fighting or hatred. Character shows who you are as a person and how good (or bad) you are.

Trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, citizenship- all what makes us human and unique. I, for one, am going today after school (May 26,2015) to the St. Francis Medical Center to turn in my volunteer application so that I may volunteer during the summer.

S.S.S. Dennis Prager

Student Success Statement

•

"The most important thing

you will ever have is 

good values." 

*Dennis Prager*

Reflection: I agree with this quote by Dennis Prager because the only thing besides character that really matters are values: being nice, helping others, standing for what you believe in. Having enthusiasm to finish something when it gets rough. Values are what set us apart from other groups of people. Many people have values that they live by but others do not follow those values and they do the wrong thing. For example, like Dennis Prager said, one may feel like eating junk food but have the values to eat healthy to stay healthy. Like Mr. Dennis Prager, "It is a constant battle between what you feel and what you value."
