It's A Choice

Assuming about 180 days of school, 9 periods per day, 25 students per period coming into the room, and subsequently exiting the room, the number of times this slogan was passed over this school year is quite high. It's no surprise that it looks like this today - tattered, beaten up and fading away. Nonetheless, whether you even noticed it by the end of the year or not, this slogan was a good reminder that everything we do revolves around choices - the good and bad, the ups and downs, all come to us by way of choices.

 No one can make your choices but YOU - no teacher, parent, coach or friend can make you do anything. That seems at times intimidating, the fact that we're responsible for ourselves. We talked early in the year about how powerful we are as people. We decide and determine our choices and the consequences that come along with them. 

 This summer, continue to make wise choices - choices that you can be proud of whethere someone is there to see it or not. Be the person that stands up for good, stands up for love and fairness. Those are things that are always in style.

    Hey Gracee - the room looks the exact same, except the tables are all messed around and the tape is off the floor (which b/c of my little trick didn't take me forever to do like that year). Posters are still up and everything - the only thing missing is 112 awesome students. . .

      First off, what's your little trick?
      Second, one awesome student stood out above the rest. Right?
