Student Success Statement

NEVER

“There is no justification ever for choosing any part of what you know to be evil.”

-     Ayn Rand

(novelist, philosopher, playwright, screenwriter)

This statement is saying that there is no reason for someone to choose the wrong. When you choose the wrong there will be consequences due to the actions you made. You should already know what is right to do and what’s not right. For example, if you go out with your friends and they begin to drink. You might be tempted to drink too or for peer pressure but the best thing to do is to say no.

 

Student Success Statement

“The Three Nevers”

Never lie

Never cheat

Never steal

-      John Wooden

I strongly agree with this statement because it’s not the right thing to do. It shows that you can’t count on a person that has done any or all of the things above. People need to choose the right and not fall into bad habits because then they won’t be successful in life. For example, it’s wrong to cheat on a test because then you will never learn anything. You will deal with consequences for choosing the wrong.
