Do the right thing at the right time

STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT 

" It's a GREAT MOMENT when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time."

Pam Knox 

Head Softball coach Western Oregon 

This statement means that doing the right thing is  better than doing what is wrong. The great thing is helping out someone that needs help than waiting until something bad happens to them. For example the football guys helping out the girl that was getting bullied by the way she looked. The mom did a right thing emailing a family friend that happens to be the football quarterback. To help her out by keeping a eye on her. He took it a step forward by asking her to hang out with him and his friends. They took her under their wing and took care of her from that day forward. They weren't obligated to help her but they all had a kind heart and did what is right. Another Example is the opposing team helping out a girl who hit a homerun and during running she ended up tearing her acl. Her teammates couldn't help her finish the game/ touching all bases. So two girls from the other team decided to take it upon themselves and her her out. By carrying her to touch all the bases that she needed to touch so that her homerun can count. 

Goodness

Student Success Statement 

"Goodness is the only investment that never fails."

Henry David Thoreau 

This statement means that doing good or being good is not going to cause you problems. Doing good even when you are not rewarded is god's greatest blessing. Helping others out is the right way to live. You will overcome life with positivity. By helping others you will make their day and they will pass on the positive vibes to others as well. You never know maybe somebody that you helped was having a bad day before you decided to help them. An example of helping others is when the lady with the blue coat paid for 13 peoples parking ticket in the near by hospital parking lot. The last lady that got her parking spot paid for she was so grateful that she started to cry because she was visiting her parents that had just got into a car accident. Another one is when people were standing outside the grocery store handing out roses to everybody who walked out the store. The last kindful act that I seen was the teenagers shoveling snow from a family's driveway. They aren't getting paid to do these kind acts. They know that it is the right thing to do.
