Student Success Statement

''I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.''

Sophocles

What Sophocles is trying to say is that its better to do the right than wrong. Honoring is something beautiful and cheating is something ugly. Its better to be a good person than being bad. Today we saw an a video of Mitchel winning the wrestling game for his dad who has cancer. The guy who Mitchel was wrestling with did a very honorable thing. He went up to Mitchel's dad and congratulated him and gave him a hug. He also told Mitchel to stay strong. That was very honorable and kind thing to do. We also saw a video of someone cheating and doing the wrong. This guy was trying to win a horse race and when he was close to the finish line someone took of picture of him and close to his hand you can see something. In his hand he had a shock thing to shock the hoarse in order for him to go faster and win the race. The guy got cause cheating and was charged money. He did the wrong. Its not right to cheat. Instead be a good person and do whats right.

Abraham Lincoln This student success statement is about how you should always be true to yourself and others. When you're true to yourself you show that you respect yourself. You should always stand for what you believe is right. When you stand up for your right/ what you believe in you're being true to yourself.
