Student Success Statement

SSS: " its not WHERE you live but HOW you live that counts. it's not where you play the game but HOW you play the game that counts."                                        - Mr.Haymore



Reflection: i believe that what this statement is stating is true because it really does not matter where you live or come from because that place does not interfere with what/who you wanna become. also, it does not matter where you play the game.. as long as you're playing the game farely or in other words choosing the right!!! CTR!!!


EXAMPLE: a boy wants to join the basketball team but is not able to afford the equipment... therefore, he does not try out and feels bad. the next day the coach comes up to him and asks, whats wrong Edison? and he says, coach, i wanted to try out for the soccer team but i am unable because, well, i dont have the money! and the coach takes him to the gym and says, i need you to show me what you got... why would you judge yourself if you dont even know you were going to be able to get on the team in the first place??? som Edison shows him and the coach looks down on him and says, son, you are not put up to be a soccer player im sorry... maybe next time. Edison was happy but upset at the same time. THE END CTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
