Did you do your summer reading? T o read is to empower To empower is to write To write is to influence To influence is to change To change is to live. ~ Jane Evershed ~
Success is Right in Front of YOU You can choose to be idle or you can choose to be ambitious. Stop to think about your choice again. You always do your own choosing. Your success is not a matter of chance, it’s a matter of choice. Success is not something you wait for, but rather something you achieve with effort. Things won’t turn up in this world until you “turn up”. When you determine what you really want, it will stop you from chasing rainbows and put you to work digging gold. Decide now that you really want to achieve your goals. Doors will open when you’re honest with yourself. If you really want to be successful in this world, look for the circumstances that you want, and, if you can’t find them, make them. Your opportunities for success are all around you. If you look hard enough, you’ll find them. Every situation, properly perceived, can become an opportunity for you. The great opportunity in your life is where you are right now. First say to yourself what you would be, then do what you have to do.
Parents are encouraged to volunteer at the school. To volunteer, you must complete a volunteer application online. For more information, please contact Ms. Lucas. Once a MUSTANG, always a MUSTANG!!!
