Student Success Statement

“Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have.”

Thomas Edison, Inventor

This statement is sending a message that says it is based on who you are not what kind of things you have. For example if you have a variety of things as in iPhone

or other electronics, then it is based on how you act with that. You don’t want to be rude and rub it in people’s faces stating that they don’t have it but you do. just because you have those things does not mean you are a great person because you can be a brat or someone that no one want to be with. 

Student Success Statement

“Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.”

W. Clement Stone

I think this quote is about how you need to know how to deal with pressure. When you go out with friends they might tell you to do drugs and so you don’t sound lame you say yes, even though you know it’s wrong. Pressure is something most people go through as they grow up. Even adults do, but they learn how to control it and how to say no.
