Student Success Statement
  1. Have the courage to say NO.
  2. Have the courage to face the truth.
  3. Do the right thing because it is right.
"These are the 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity."
                  - W. Clement Stone
These are three good statements but you need to have the courage or else these three statements will not work out. If you do not have the courage to stand up for yourself you will never get anywhere in life. If your friends call at 10 pm and invite you to go out with them but you have to study for a really big exam that you are going to take tomorrow but you don't have the courage to say no,You just ruined your grade because of you not being able to say no. Another example is if you go out with your friends one day and then one of your friends take out a pack of cigarettes and they tell you to get one and you don't want to take it but you don't have the courage to say no you just ruined your life because what if you got addicted and never stopped.These three things can help you live your life with integrity but only if you have the courage.

Student Success Statement
"If your so-called friends urge you to do anything you know to be wrong, you be the one to make a stand  for right, even if you stand alone, have the moral courage to be a light for others to follow."
                                                -Thomas S. Monson
I like this quote because its giving you advice on what to do in the future so that you wont get into serious trouble because if you have friends that aren't truly friends who just hang out with you to dare you to do stuff and if you don't do it they wont hang out with you or talk to you those are not real friends. Real friends are the people who are always with you no matter what. If your going through good times or if your going through bad times.Real friends don't make you do what you don't want to do. Real friends help you out with your problems. For example if you have friends who are going to go egg bomb a house on halloween and you know that its a bad thing and you tell them NO, a real friend would say ok then we wont thats not right to do or if they are still going to do it they just tell ok then its fine don't come. A bad friend would start calling you names and make fun of you in front of every one. He will tell you that if you don't come you cannot hang out with them or talk to them. This is a really good quote that you can learn a lot from.
