Student Success Statement - 2/16/2018

"It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today."-James Freeman Clarke I agree with this quote. This quote in my point of view is the choices you make today can follow you throughout your life. The main choice i face everyday today is concerning my grades. Everyday i think about how all my assignments go into my grade. My grade goes into what college i make it into and my future. i make sure to  alway make a good choice when  it comes to that because i know how it can affect me. I have learned from all my older siblings that school comes first and to try hard because your grades will have a domino affect on the colleges i get accepted to. This quote is very true and there are also other times where this quote relates to it.
