Student Success Statement:Margret Chase Smith

                 Student Success Statement
“The right way is not always the popular and easy way. Standing for right when it is unpopular is a true test of moral character”
                    Margret Chase Smith
Reflection: It’s always the trends or whatever the popular people say is cool that we do. Sometimes the “cool” things are the ones that are really bad. Like right now doing drugs might be “cool” and popular to some people but that doesn’t mean we should do them. People might make fun of us for not doing the “cool” things but it’s not like those people are going to be there for us when we are on our death beds right. It’s a test of moral character because it says who you are. It says if you’re a follower or not, it says if you’re a good listener or not. Just because something is cool doesn’t mean we HAVE to do it. Its never an easy thing to do to say no to the popular things because then we feel left out or we feel like we aren’t good enough to hang out with those people but it doesn’t matter. Choosing the right thing you do will always be hard but it’s the best thing you can do in your life.
