Student Success Statement

"It's okay to be different and not be like everyone eles. If someone doesn't like the way you are don't change yourself just be you."

-Amari Barnes

It's okay to be differnt and if someone doesn't acept that you are who you are don't change for anyone. Many people are all about fitting in and they think that appearence, taste in clothes, or music define who you are. In reality, you are just being you and that's okay. Everyone isn't the same and everyone doesn't look the same. For example, Sam isn't going to look like Cat and Cat isn't going to be like Nat. That's okay sometimes it isn't all about fitting in and being the same. Ever heard of the quote "An origianl is worth way more than a copy." It's okay to be yourself you will soon be worth gold. If one person dosen't like you for who you are don't change someday someone will and you will feel apart. Society today is all about being apart of something such as a gang, crew, or squad. Eithier of thoes will help you define who yoiu are. You have to figure out who you are within yourself first. Change will come naturally and you just have to wait until that day comes.

Student Success Statement

Stand Alone

"Dare to stand alone. Stand up for what is right even, if you are the only one standing."  

-Thomas S Manson

This is a great challenge for everyone to try to follow because you don't have to go the same direction as everyone else it's okay to be different. For example, we seen a video in class about a girl name Brook who lives in Mexico and who also is 6 ft tall. That's pretty tall for a girl but that's okay its okay to be different. Sometimes being different is the best choice you could have ever made. Not only will it affect you positively but it would influence others to take the same path you are in. It only takes one to make a different and that one could be you, me. our community, or even our peers. Let's make a difference today. Back to Brook, she is noticed everywhere she goes and that's okay stand tall. If you are going to stand tall be noticed and bring awareness.
