Student Success Statement


"I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating."
                             -Sophocles

Reflection: I think this quote means to always be honest no matter what. For example, if you try hard on a test and you fail, its ok. At least you tried your best and you should be proud of that. If you cheat on a test and pass, its not being honorable because you cheated of someone else and you didn't try on your own.

Student Success Statement


"If  I've got correct goals, and if I keep pursuing them the best way I know how, everything else falls into line. If I do the right thing right, I'm going to succeed."
                                     -Dan Dierdorf

Reflection: I think this quote means that having good goals and achieving them are a good thing and you will be successful. If you have bad goals and you try to achieve those, you will gain nothing. The only thing you will do is get yourself in trouble and lose certain privileges. For example, if someone has the goal to go to college, then that's a good goal. When they achieve it by doing the right thing, they will become successful. If someone tries to achieve their goal by doing the wrong thing, they will fail.

Good Values

Student Success Statement
"The most important thing you will ever have is good values."

   -Dennis Prager




Reflection: I think this quote means that good values are very important. I think this because people always have good values over everything. For example, someone can be taking a test and they don't understand it. They can cheat and get A but they have a good value of not cheating. Another example is that someone wants to eat junk food but they cant because they have a good value of not eating unhealthy foods. People can break those good values but they don't because they are CTR people.

An internal phenomenon
Student Success Statement


"The reward for doing  right is mostly an internal phenomenon: Self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem."
Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reflection: I think this means that being a respectful and good person is the key to being a human being.  For example, if someone is a kind person and is always positive towards themselves, they have the gift of being a good person who is full of self-esteem.

C-T-R
Student Success Statement

"Being  a c-t-r person isn't always easy, but its the best person you can be."
                    -Diana Beltran


Reflection: I think this quote means that its hard to be a ctr person. I think it means that because not everyone always makes the right decision. For example, people can make a decision because they feel pressured but they end up making the wrong decision. I also think it means that being a ctr person means always being honest which can be hard. People can make the right choice but it can be hard because you can throw your friends under the bus. For example, if your friends bring drugs to school and someone asks you if you know if anyone brought any, some people might have to tell the truth.

The Right Thing
Student Success Statement
"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing."

                          -Theodore Roosevelt


Reflection: I think this quote means that you should always make the right choice or decision . For example, if someone tells you to ditch school, you should say no. That is the right thing to do. The next day, if someone tells you to try drugs, you should say no. If anyone ever tries to make you choose the wrong thing, just say no. Always choose whats right and do the right thing.

Nothing
Student Success Statement
"Nothing is ever gained in doing whats wrong."
                                  -Wilford Woodruff

Reflection: I think this quote means that doing whats wrong doesn't benefit you in any way but it makes every worse. For example, if you don't listen to the teachers directions then you aren't going to know what to do. If you don't know what to do then your going to have a hard time doing your work. If you can't do your work then you can't pass the class. If you can't pass the class then you can't graduate. If you don't graduate then you don't go to college. If you don't go to college then you don't get a job. If you don't get a job then you have no money. If you don't have money then you can't pay the rent. If you don't pay the rent then you end up homeless. This is why you choose the right or everything will go wrong and you won't gain nothing and lose everything.
