Student Success Statement

"Success is simple.
Do what's right, the right way, at the right time"
Arnold H. Glasgow


What does it even mean to do right?
That's one simple question that the human being can't even answer themselves. When, in reality, we all have our own definitions of doing what's "right". To me, however, doing what's right doesn't necessarily have one answer. To do what is right, simply and can only mean, knowing your morals, values, and what you stand for and what you believe is right. Doing what's right does not mean, for say, helping an old lady crossing the street or picking up trash at the park. Doing what is right is always being honest because you, yourself, feel that it is wrong to lie. Doing what's right may also mean not falling into peer pressure because that's one principle you have always followed. It only comes natural for all of us to do what is wrong, but we have to teach and learn what we feel is right. That is simply what I feel towards doing right "at the right time" or even in the "right way"
