Student Success Statement

Eight Great Reasons to Tell the Truth
Barbara A. Lewis
  1. Telling the truth lets everyone know what really happened. There's less chance of misunderstanding, confusion, or conflict.
  2. Telling the truth protects innocent people from being blamed or punished.
  3. Telling the truth allows everyone to learn from what happened.
  4. You usually get into less trouble for telling the truth other than for lying (and getting caught).
  5. Other people trust you more when you tell the truth.
  6. You don't have to tell (and remember) more lies to keep your story straight.
  7. You gain a reputation for being truthful - a trait most people value.
  8. Telling the truth helps you to feel secure and peaceful inside.
 

What Barbara is saying is that its important to tell the truth. Telling the truth will make you a better person. One you tell the truth people will have more trust in you and confide in you. Telling the truth will prevent having arguments and confusion. Also it helps from other people getting blamed. An example is if you and your friend are fighting because she feels as if you texted the boy she likes and flirted with him. And its the truth but you're denying it. Don't deny because its gonna get you guys in a lot of drama. Instead tell her the truth. Always tell the truth.

character

Student Success Statement ''Character is higher than intellect.'' Ralph Waldo Emerson What Ralph Waldo Emerson is saying is that character is key. Everything you do involves character. An example of having good character is if you're helping a elder cross the street. That's showing good character because you're helping someone and you're being caring. You're taking some time away to help someone and do good. An example of having bad character is when the teacher calls on you to do a problem and you respond back with attitude saying no and how you didn't even raise your hand. This example that I will say is an example of having good character and knowing your intelligent. Lets say that you're a good person as if you do all your homework, you help the environment after school, and you're good at playing basketball. Then there's this other kid who does bad in school, never listens, but is also better at basketball. The coaches w...

Wrong is Never Right

Student Success Statement ''Even if everyone is doing it, WRONG IS NEVER RIGHT.'' Russell M. Nelson What Russel Nelson is saying is that you shouldn't always copy and do the same thing everyone else is doing because you never know if something is wrong. An example of this is, if you see people cheating on a test. You will then do it too but its doing the wrong. Its wrong to cheat because once you cheat you will never stop and its not right. Its also wrong to cheat because if you cheat your whole life when you work in the career you trained for you're not going to know whats going on. Another example is if you're at a party and you see people and kids smoking. They're going to tell you if you want some and since everyone else is doing it you're going to do it too. This is bad because not only are you doing it to look ''cool'' but you're also damaging your body. Damaging your body and give you a lot of health risk. So just ...
