Student Success Statement
“We need the courage to start and continue what we should do, and the courage to stop what we shouldn’t do”

This quote is saying that we need strength, or courage to do what we should do and what’s good for us, and the courage and strength to stop doing what’s we shouldn’t or what’s bad.

Student Responsibilities Part3
What is important to you is that you, as you start to reach milestones in your ambitions, you appreciate your own achievements. It is a boost, of course, if others appreciate what you have done too, but appreciating yourself will strengthen your self-belief, and reinforce your determination to succeed.
Some of the key characteristics you will find in those who are successful are perseverance, prepared research, plan and work hard, practice a lot even when things don’t seem to be going well, and an ability to recover and learn from setbacks. At the outset of whatever it is you are trying to succeed in, a strong vision of your future, planning, and setting yourself achievable targets can all play an important role.
If you feel you do not naturally have all those characteristics, then do not despair. Each of them can be accomplished by your own application. You can use medication and visualization techniques to initiate your vision, and they can certainly be learnt both for the purpose and each step you take to reach your goals. Setting goals and objectives can be a personal or business technique that can be learnt. You can develop inner strength to succeed if you apply yourself to doing just that; that will enable you to recover from setbacks more easily. Students: these are your responsibilities.

The importance of sportsmanship


The importance of sportsmanship
I think that the importance of sportsmanship is to play fair and not to cheat. Sportsmanship is important because it reflects on who you are. If you cheat it reflects that you’re a liar and an unfair person. If you play fair and by the rules it reflects you are a person who is always doing right things. Sportsmanship is all about having faith that you can win. If you say “I give up” it means you’re nothing but a quitter. But if you say “I got to at least give it a try” that means you are a winner, a person who never gives up and keeps on trying always has success for the future. The most important thing about sportsmanship that people expect from you is:
Ø Honesty
Ø Respect
Ø Trust
Ø And being a good sport.
Great sportsmanship is also a great way to meet people like you.
