What Is Honor

Honor is selflessness. It is when you do a selfless act. It is to have great respect for a source or a person. To be honest, fair, and have integrity. To admire or to have a privilege.
                                        

Student Success Statement

"He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."- A Proverb

  This statement means that when you hang out with people who are bad influence then you will eventually be like them, but when you hang out with people who are successful then you will become successful as well. For example, if you hang out with people who get drunk, smoke, or ditch school then you will eventually be doing the same. Don't hang out with people that will influence you the wrong way.

Integrity

This video was about Abraham Lincoln being offered whiskey by the Colonel he was with and he said no. Then the Colonel offered him to smoke and Mr. Lincoln said that before he did he was going to tell him a story about a little boy. his mom was very sick and she called him over and told him that she wasn't going to get better so she made him promise her that he would never drink whiskey or smoke tobacco and he did. Then Mr. Lincoln asked the Colonel if he wants him to break that promise and the Colonel said that he wouldn't ask that of him. This taught me to keep my word.
                                                     

Student Success Statement

"Man's rise or fall, success or failure, happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude....a man's attitude will create the situation he imagines."- James Allen

 This statement is saying that your life depends thoroughly on your attitude. Whether you are happy or not depends on your attitude. If you are successful or not, if you rise or fall depends on your attitude. You hold your own attitude and only you can control. For example, if you are positive that you are going to pass a test, then you will pass it because that is the power your attitude has.
