Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement
"Truth is the only safe ground to stand upon."
Elizabeth Cay Stanton
I agree with this statement because being honest and truthful will always put you in a goo place. If you lie and your not honest, it will not get to any place good.

Attention to detail 7 of 10

Attention to detail
7 of 10
When you double-check your calculations for math problems or cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.
John Wooden, UCLA’s former great basketball coach who leads his teams to ten executive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to details was one of the most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his players would lace up and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach them how.
Details may be small things, but from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and you will experience substantial progress in your overall educational attainment.

Student Success Statement


         Student  Success Statement
        "Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will; nothing is more common than unsuccessful man with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan has solved and always will solve the problems 'press no’  of the human race."

Calvin Coolidge, 30th president of the United States
Reflection:
I agree with this statement because without persistence, you will never achieve anything. You and you alone posses the power to either go that extra mile or give up and spend the rest of your life thinking of what could have been.

"The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of a moral character."
Margaret Chase Smith
Reflection
I agree with Ms. Smith because  doing what is right even when people are not, is very noble and not stupid as those choosing the wrong might say. It shows your morals and shows how you don't care what are other people say.

"WHEN AN ARCHER MISSES THE MARK, HE TURNS AND LOOKS FOR THE FAULT WITHIN HIMSELF. FAILURE TO HIT THE BULLS-EYE IS NEVER THE FAULT OF THE TARGET. TO IMPROVE YOUR AIM, IMPROVE YOURSELF."
REFLECTION:
YOUR NEVER GOING TO REACH YOU DESIRED GOAL IF YOU NEVER TRY. YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT MAKES UP EXCUSES. NOBODY ELSE DOES IT FOR YOU.IF YOU LIKE SOMEONE AND YOU DON'T GET THE GUTS TO EVEN TRY TO ASK THIS PERSON OUT, ITS NOT THE PERSONS FAULT BUT YOUR FOR NOT TRYING. YOU MISS 100% OF THE SHOTS YOU DON'T TRY TO MAKE.

Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement 
" When I was teaching basketball, I urged my players to try their players to try their hardest to improve on that very day, to make that practice a masterpiece.
This rule is even more important inc life than basketball. You have to apply yourself each day to become a little better. By applying yourself tot he task of becoming a little better each and every day, over a period of time, you will become a lot better. Only then will you be able to approach being the best you can be. It begins by trying to make each day count and knowing you can never make up for a lost day."
John Wooden.
I agree with this statement because becoming the best you can be will not only benefit you in what you want to do, but it will set an example for those who want to do the same but have doubts about themselves.

"BE always sure you're right then go ahead"
Davy Crockett

Refection 
Always do something for the right thing, never for the wrong things. This statement says to go right ahead do what you want if it's the right thing. An example would be superman. He is a hero who never used is powers to do wrong, or he never did it for the attention. He did it because he can. Although it's not real, it shows a good example for this statement.

“Character is higher than intellect.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Knowledge is very significant. It can and will help you through your life, however your character stands out from the rest. Your character shows other people how you are. It makes you stand out.

"When you believe you can-you can."
Dr. Maxwell Malstz

It's simple, why should you, because you can. You gotta get your hands in the dirt to see what the harvest will bring. There is no time to waste. The time is now.  Believe you can and go out there and do it. Its not about how hard life hits you or how hard you hit it back. it's about how much you get hit and keep on going.

"What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us."
Ralph Waldo Emerson 

Reflection:
I strongly agree with this because it speaks the truth. What ever lies within us is based our past actions. There are good actions and there are bad actions that people do. What you've done before will show what lies within.

Selecting Your Courses


Selecting Your Courses

Part 5

The Arts

Research indicates that students who participate in the arts often do better in school and on standardized tests. The arts help you recognize patterns, discern differences and similarities, and exercise your mind in unique ways, often outside a traditional classroom setting.

Many colleges require or recommend one or two semesters in the arts. Good choices include studio art, dance, music, and drama. Many students have talents and many extraordinary abilities in the arts. Students should look within their own repertoire of talents and identify their music abilities and take college classes to develop their talents.

Advanced placement Program (AP)

To be sure you are ready to take on college level work, enroll in the most challenging courses you can in high school, such as honors or AP courses. Research consistently shows that students who score a 3.0 or higher on an AP exam typically experience greater academic success and college graduation rates than students who don’t take AP.

Work hard in your righteous pursuits and you will reap the benefits of self-fulfillment and job satisfaction. Don’t take shortcuts just to “get by” instead, take challenging and difficult roads (courses) and reach higher mountain peaks of achievement.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

Goals
“In life as in football, you won’t go far, unless you know where the goalposts are.”
-Arnold Glasgow
I completely agree with this statement because if you don’t have a sense of direction, you don’t where to go. But if you have a goal, you’ll go towards that goal with obstacles. For example the defense of line men can represent the obstacles. But the you have to goal.

How to take on college studying
Part 3
Do the Reading
You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned – you’re expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips.
-         Don’t skim. Read all the material carefully.
-         Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest- chapters, subsections or even paragraphs
-         Look up any words that you don’t understand.
-         Pause to think about whether you understand the material: ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.
-         Take notes instead of highlights—this makes you think through and rephrase the key points.
-         Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.

“Success is dependent on effort”
-Sophocles, Greek dramatist
My opinion about this statement is that success depends on effort. When you put a lot of effort on things you will receive success and there will probably be no obstacles. It’s always better to put a lot of effort into things. Always. Always.

Choose where to Study   www.apstudynotes.org
Where you Should study depends on two facts: the environment in which you are best available to concentrate the type of work you are planning to do.
-         The best places to study have good light, a comfortable tempature and enough desk space – usually your dorm room, your apartment or the library.
-         For completing problem sets or brainstorming possible test questions, you may want to study with a group or at least in a setting where fellow students are available for discussion.
-         When you are reading book chapters or working on a research paper, you are probably better off in a less social envirment.
Improve you study skills
Here are simple steps you can take to help you get a handle on studying:
-         Have a routine for where and when you study.
-         Choose reasonable and specific goals that you can accomplish for each study session.
-         Do things that are harder or require more intense thought at your most productive time of the day.
-         Take breaks if you need them so you don’t  waste time looking  at material but not absorbing it.
-         Get to know students whom you respect  and can study with or contact to ask questions.
-         Keep up with the workload and seek help when you need it.

“It’s better to be alone than to be in bad company”
Anon
I agree with this statement because does it really matter to look cool in front of people. Being lonely because you chose the right is better than having company over like the cops because of choosing the wrong.

“ Alone we can do so little;  together we can do so much”

IF you have one branch, you can break it easily, but if you hold to branches together and try to break them together, you’ll have a much harder and difficult time. If you do things with others then you’ll be able to accomplish so much!

“It’s not WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. Its not where you play the game but HOW you play the game that counts”
Mr. Haymore

Reflection: This quote means that depending on how you play the game if you play fair and square you will win with pride but if you cheat you’ll win but you won’t feel good about it. Remember, always be a good sport, and apply your true knowledge and strength. Being a good individual is what matters the most. Doesnt matter where you come from, you can become anybody. You can be a boy who has no money but later on in life he can become the president of the United States.
