Student Success Statement

           Student Success Statement

“Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself.”
                                          -Henry Ward Beecher



This quote means a lot because sometimes we only accomplish what people think we can accomplish and we never try harder to accomplish more than what they think we can accomplish. We need to prove them wrong that we can accomplish way more things than people want us to accomplish. My freshman math teacher was one of those people she made me feel like I couldn't accomplish anything in her class and that I wouldn't be able to understand math, at first I was actually starting to believe that but when I started sophomore year in a new school I ended up being one of the smartest ones in my class and I passed the class with a B. Then on my junior year the same thing is happening I actually feel smart in my math classes and I can prove to my old math teacher who didn't want me to do good that I was able to do good without her having to put me down.
