Student Success Statement

“Set your goals high, and don’t stop till you get there.”

     Bo Jackson

Reflection: what I believe this quote means is that when you have a goal in life there is obviously going to be obstacles coming your way, and even if you fall pick yourself up and keep on going. Because there is nothing impossible that can be accomplished in life. You don’t stop until you have finally reached your goals and feel proud of yourself!!! J
