Student Success Statement

                                          Student Success Statement


"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when goes wrong."


Abraham Lincoln 
Reflection: I believe that us as humans we must stick and stand next to the people who do the right. People who make us believe in yourself. The people who bring bad vibes and make us do bad things must be said goodbye to. Those who don't believe in you and make you feel bad are people who cant even believe in themselves. Being true is all about choosing what you feel is right and not caring about anything else. Only cowards aren't able to fight for what they want, cowards are afraid of everything and anything, they walk away. Therefore, cowards will never in life be happy and they are committing their life to sadness and many regrets. Hopefully, some day cowards realize that their actions are mediocre and hypocritical and decide to ask forgiveness for everything they have done.

April Fool's Day


1-It is celebrated every year on the first day of April.
2-A day when people play practical year and hoaxes on each other.
 3- It is believed that Ancient Romans held a festival known as Hilaria. The occasion was used to celebrate the resurrection of god Attis. He was born of a virgin mother.
4-  A positive view is that people can laugh for a while. A negative thing is that people can be hurt or manipulated.
5-Popular since the 19th century, the day is not a national holiday in any country, but it is well-known in Canada, Europe, Australia, Brazil, and the United States.

                                                   "Character is higher than intellect."

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Reflection: I think intellect is something that we all have and is vital. Intellect is something that we force and make grow every time we learn something new. However, character is what makes us what we are. Character is what makes us act how we act and is vital and important to everyone and anyone.

Student Success Statement

                            Student Success Statement 

                                              "I trust that my hard work will pay off."

                                                                        Tyler Haws

Reflection: I believe that this statement reflects hard work. It is true that when you work hard for something, and really put a big effort into it you will receive something huge in exchange. Working hard benefits you either soon or later.

The Smiths 


The Smiths were an English band formed in Manchester in 1982. The band consisted of vocalist Morrissey, guitarist Johnny Marr, bassist Andy Rourke, and drummer Mike Joyce. Critics have called them the most important alternative rock band to emerge from the British independent music scene of the 1980's.

The Smiths had several singles reach the UK top 20 and all four of their studio albums reached the UK top five, including one which topped the charts. They won significant following and remain cult favorites, although they had limited commercial success outside the UK while they were still together. The band broke up in 1987 and have turned down several chances to reunite.


The band's focus on a guitar, bass, and drum sound, and their fusion of 1960's rock and post-punk, were a repudiation of synthesizer-based contemporary dance-pop - the style popular in early 1980's. Morrissey's lyrics combined themes about ordinary people with a mordant sense of humor.



The group's cover artwork had distinctive visual style and often featured images of film and pop stars, usually in duo tone. The covers of singles rarely featured any text other than the bands name, and the band itself did not appear on the cover of any UK release. The choice of cover subjects reflected Morrissey's interest in cult film.

                                                     "Character is higher than intellect."

Ralph Waldo Emerson
Reflection: I think that both character and intellect are important. Intellect and character are useful in life. Whenever I think of intellect and character is that both are needed, both make what you are.

                        True Independence and Freedom


                       "True independence and freedom can only exist in doing whats right."


Brigham Young

Reflection: I think that freedom and independence aren't really that different things. Freedom and independence are both about liberty and of doing what you feel like doing. The fact is that it can only exist when you do what is right and get away from what is wrong.

Opportunities outside of the U.S

Germany- Germany has one of the lowest unemployment rates in the EU. There's a shortage of skilled workers in many professions in Germany. These include qualified engineers  (mechanical, automotive, electrical and building,) scientists, mathematicians, IT specialist and both hospital doctors and GPs.



Ireland- The key sectors of the Irish economy are services, industry and exportation. Trade and exportation have grown hugely in recent years. The country is one of the worlds largest software exporters thanks to low taxation, its geographical location and the fact that English is an official language of the country. 




Russia- There is a strong TEFL market in Russia, but you'll need a good knowledge of Russian, particularly outside Moscow.The main opportunities are working for an international firm, teaching English, or working for a non-governmental organization (NGO). Russia has more academic graduates than any country in Europe, so there is no shortage of candidates to fill graduate positions. 



REFLECTION: I think that having a job/career outside of the U.S is a huge opportunities. You get to experience the different type of culture. You also meet new people and try their food and their religious culture. Many countries in Europe are wealthy and have a huge wage.

OLIVET MIDDLE SCHOOL

Olivet Middle School Team


I think that the fact that a typical football team gave a chance to a kid who has a disorder. It is truly impacting to think that at least for a moment the kid gets to be choosen and taste the glory for some minutes but something he will remember for life.

Something I learned about this is that no matter if your team wins or loses, doesnt matter whos in the team either, what will always count is the effort and how proud you feel. Oliver was certainly happy and he got to be someone this time, he got the chance to meet friendships and simply enjoy of this.

                                            "Theyre only truly great who are truly good."

George Chapman

Reflection: I think that you can be great or decide to be bad. Truth is no matter what you choose, people will still judge and picture you the way they want to. For those who are great will cause honor and a good friend. If you choose to be bad you will just cause harn to those who surround you.

                                            Student Success Statement


                                    Cheating: I sthe short term gain worth the long pain gain?

"Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating. and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it.


Geroge Mitchell

Reflection: I think that it doesn't matter what others think, it all depends in what you wish and desire the most. However, it is your decesion if you take a short term of gain or a long term of pain. You are who decides what to do with your body, no one else. You do what you want with your body and no one can't stop you from it.

Dale Murphy

Reflection: I think that this means that cheating is bad and is something that should be punished. It's something unfair and if you cheat it shows that you are not trusthworthy and honest. It's better to be honest and just accept you lost, it's not all about winning, sometimes you need to loose to learn something new.

"Great beauty, great strengt, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all."

Benjamin Franklin

Reflection: I think that having a good heart and always choosing the right isn't going to buy you food or a house. There is more into life than just being well behaved and alwyas doing right. Humans are always tempted for the bad things and that is okay because we learn from our mistakes. Great beauty, great strenght, and great riches is something of use also.
