Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement - 1/31/18

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where the goalposts are."
- Arnold H. Glasgow

This quote, in other words, is talking about the importance of setting goals and knowing what exactly you are working towards. I agree with this because setting goals and acknowledging that you have goals is really motivating. I, for example, set goals for myself and work hard to meet all of them. Sometimes, i don't meet all the goals i expect myself to but that just motivates me to work harder. Last year, during 8th grade, i set multiple goals for myself. Some of them were, to get good grades, to complete all my work, and to make sure i am a great student. All of those grades were accomplished and i graduated with a high GPA and many of my teachers thanked me and awarded me for being such a great student. This year, my goals are to get straight A's so i will have a 4.0 GPA and i want to start volunteering. I agree with this quote greatly because i think someone that sets goals tends to be more successful since they have things they want to accomplish and completed.
