Student Success Statement 


"A man without a goal is like a ship without a rudder." 


Thomas Carlyle 


Reflection: This basically means that without goals, we cant go anywhere. We need goes to keep us going or else we'll just get stuck in the same place. 
We're humans and we require ambitions to keep us moving forward. 
A ship without a rudder is basically useless just as a human without goals. 
We must know what we want to accomplish and what we want to do in order to be someone in life. Goals are our rudders and we're steering the ship.

Student Success Statement 


" I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating ." 


Sophocles 


Reflection: Its better to loose honestly than to  win dishonestly. 
For example, cheating on a test might get your to pass it but it will affect you in the long run. 
So its better to be truthful.

Reflection: Having good morals and being well mannered and having a positive out view of life will determine your future and the people in it.

The person with good values will always get the job and will be surrounded by positive people and guilt free mind.

Student Success Statement 

"Nothing is ever gained in doing what's wrong."


Wilford Woodruff 



Reflection: When you do the wrong thing, it may seem like you've gained something but that feeling is only temporary. The feeling is replaced with guilt and sometimes self-pitty. 
Nothing good can come from doing something bad.

"Nicest Man in the World" 

Patrick Morgan 

Florida 


Reflection: I honestly think it's great what the guy did, he didn't do it to get acknowledged or for any other selfish reason. He just did it because he's a good person , which is something the world is lacking of. The guy that owned the money didn't even seem to care. who leaves thousands of dollars in their IPAD? That's pretty idiotic, the Ipad could have been stolen along with his cash. 
I still think the other guy was a jerk. Patrick returned his money, ALL OF IT. He should have been more appreciative.

Student Success Statement 


"The reward for doing right is mostly an internal phenomenon: 
Self-respect, dignity (self-worth), integrity, and self-esteem." 

Dr Laura Schlessinger 


Reflection: You cant always expect to receive a metal whenever you do the right thing. But you can always expect to receive self satisfaction. Despite the fact that the reward for doing something right isn't an object, it still clears you of a free conscious because you did the right thing. 
LAUSD: Students

Services and Benefits

  • Student Health and Human Services:  These services will benefit me because they are created to maximize the achievement of a student. They deliver quick mental health and human services. 

  •  Student Medical Services: I actually think this is great for the children and parents that can't afford going to the doctor. This service works together to provide needed health care to to students with no access to a doctor. 

  • Psychologist services: This is interesting because they can make a positive long lasting change in a student's life including behavior and social interacting. I think this is a necessary profession to have at schools. 
Others:Finding schools, helping children with disabilities, providing financial support, providing mental support... 

I dont really think I need any of this, i am a somewhat a mentally balanced student and financially stable. But I think many students would benefit A LOT from what LAUSD has to offer, if it's either financial or medical. I honestly didnt know that students had this type of treatment but I think its great how LAUSD is actually providing us with resources to succeed in our educational life.

 Student Success Statement 

"When a deep injury is done to us, we never recover until we forgive." 


Alan Paton 

Forgive: to stop feeling angry or resentful for an offense, flaw, or mistake. 


Reflection: How are we going to strive in life if we keep gripping on to the past? You have to forgive but not forget so the same thing won't happen again. You have to learn from experiences and become wiser. No matter how much wrong someone did to you, you have to forgive and learn from that and improve on it.

Student Success Statement

"Dare to stand alone." 



Thomas S. Monson 



Reflection: This means to not follow the crowd especially if it's the wrong crowd. Don't socialize with people that have low morals and have no respect for themselves or people around them. You shouldn't be afraid to be alone rather than be with the wrong people
